Ahmad Muhammad




“And we have honored the sons of Adam.” 17:70

M H M D >o>o
Al-Hallaj (may Allah forgive him his mistakes) was among the first to realize that the form of Adam, the prototype of humanity, was created from the name Muhammad. His head is the round letter “mim“, his hands and chest the letter “ha“, his waist another “mim“, and the legs a “dal“.
Adamic Form
Ibn Arabi (may Allah be pleased with him), talked about the significance of this human form, created from the word Muhammad, in terms of the body as the microcosm of the entire universe. He said:
“The first miim is the head, and that is the world of the supreme Sovereignty (‘aalam al-malakuut al-a’laa) and of the Greatest Intellect (al-’aql al-akbar). The breast and the arms are under the letter ha, and this is the Glorious Throne; its numerical value is 8, which is the number of the angels who carry the Throne. The second miim represents the stomach, and that is the World of the Kingdom (‘aalam al-mulk). The hips, the legs, and the feet are from the daal, and that is the stable composition by means of the Eternal Writ.”
“And carrying the throne of your Lord above them, on that Day, are eight.” (69:17)
The numerical value of the letter ha which forms the chest is 8.
“Ta Ha. We did not bring down the Qur’an upon you to make you suffer; rather, it is a Remembrance to him who fears, a revelation from Him who created the earth and the highest heavens. The all-Merciful established Himself upon the throne.” (20:1-5)
Mawlana Shams at-Tabrizi (may Allah be pleased with him) said:
“(Our master Muhammad, salla Allahu alayhi wa Alihi wa sallam) stood so long (in prayer) that his feet became swollen.
The King says in anger, ‘Enough! I don’t want this. Ta Ha. We did not bring down the Qur’an upon you to make you suffer. I have placed you next to Myself and speak to you. I don’t speak so that you will fall into suffering, rather, it is only a Remembrance to him who fears, a revelation from Him who created the earth and the highest heavens.’
He is explaining this proximity for the sake of the common people. Earth is Muhammad’s body, heavens are his luminous faculties of reflection, conception, and imagination. The all-Merciful established Himself upon the throne: He has settled down upon your heart (O Muhammad).”
Salat Postures spell Ahmad
If you look at the postures of the Salaat, you will see that they spell “Ahmad.”  The standing posture is the  Aleph, the rukuu’ posture is the haa,  and the  sujood posture spells  miim daal. In the sujood, the head and upper body create the miim and the lower body creates the  daal.
مد
Thus the postures of the Salaat, our means of connection to the Divine, spell Ahmad:
أحمد
And Allah Most High knows best.
والحمد لله رب العالمين على نعمه كلها
اللهم صلّ وسلم وبارك على سيدنا ومولانا محمد خير البرية
وعلى آله في كل لمحة ونفس عدد ما وسعه علم الله
