Is it true that the Messenger (peace and blessings be upon him) was the first of Allah’s creation among humans?

The Shaykh : Is it true that the Messenger (peace and blessings be upon him and his family) was the first of Allah’s creation among humans? And is it true what is said about the Messenger (peace and blessings be upon him and his family)?
"If Satan had seen the gleam of his light *** in Adam’s face, he would have been the first to prostrate."
This is the first time I have heard this misguidance. The questioner said: This is what I heard from the reciters; what is the ruling on this recitation and praise?
As for the first question, the answer is not correct that the Messenger (peace and blessings be upon him) was the first of the human beings that Allah created; because this is one of the matters of the unseen in which it is not permissible for a Muslim to speak based on conjecture; because Allah (Mighty and Majestic) says in His Book: , and the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him and his family) says: . So if a person says: "Allah (Mighty and Majestic) first created what we call the person of Muhammad, and rather, as they claim, He created the light of Muhammad (peace and blessings be upon him and his family)," we say: Allah (Blessed and Exalted is He) said: . So from where did this claimant, who shoots in the unseen, know that the Messenger (peace be upon him) was the first thing Allah created, the creation of his light? He will say: the aforementioned hadith: . We say: This hadith has no basis in the six famous mother books, nor in the sixty known among the people of hadith, nor in any other of the hundreds of books. So this hadith has no basis except in the minds of the ignorant among those who have made praising the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him and his family) with truth and falsehood a profession from which they live. So it is not permissible—according to many scholars—it is not permissible to establish a belief with a valid hadith; because these scholars stipulate that for establishing a belief, the hadith must be mass-transmitted (mutawatir); it is not sufficient for it to be merely valid; meaning, even if it has two or three chains, it must have come from twenty chains; meaning, twenty Companions, so that the belief is established by that hadith. We, although we do not adopt this opinion because we do not distinguish between what came to us from the Messenger (peace and blessings be upon him) regarding belief and what came from him regarding rulings; all of that must be followed and submitted to. But we remind you that many scholars stipulated, or rather, when they stipulated mass-transmission (tawatur) in the hadith intended to establish a belief, they did so only out of concern that a Muslim might believe something in which some narrators may have erred. Unfortunately, we find that the masses of people today believe in beliefs that are based on weak hadiths, and even fabricated hadiths like this hadith: . Therefore, it is not permissible for a Muslim to believe in such a belief because it is not found in any of the valid hadiths.
As for the verse mentioned, there is no doubt that it is misguidance, and it is not permissible to recite it, let alone to praise the Messenger (peace and blessings be upon him) with it; because your praise of a man with falsehood is actually a criticism of him; whether this reciter intends it or not; because if you praise a person with what he does not possess, it is as if you are implying that he does not possess the true praises that exist in him, which we should praise him with. Therefore, we invent things from ourselves to praise him with. The Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him and his family) is not like that; for Allah (Mighty and Majestic) chose him with his prophethood and messengership and created him with perfect character, and He said: . So he (peace and blessings be upon him) is not in need of being praised with such falsehoods; especially since in the valid Sunnah there is a portion that is mass-transmitted (mutawatir) and a portion less than that, and all of it is valid, with which a Muslim can praise the Messenger (peace and blessings be upon him and his family) with all of it.
As for coming with this false praise, this is exaggeration in religion. And Allah (Mighty and Majestic) has warned us by His warning of the People of the Book regarding exaggeration in religion, and He said: . And he (peace and blessings be upon him) directed this same meaning to us, the Muslims, directly; and that was when he was near Mina, and he ordered Abdullah ibn Abbas to pick up pebbles for him, and he indicated that they should be small pebbles, the size of a chickpea, and he said: . So this exaggeration in religion is not permissible absolutely, and especially what is related to belief and the matters of the unseen, like this claim that this reciter claimed:
"If Satan had seen the appearance of his light *** in the face of Adam, he would have been the first to prostrate"
This is the speech of poets whom the astray follow. So such recitation is not permissible absolutely; because speech, utterance, and vocalizing it is not permissible because it is false. And therefore, the Messenger (peace be upon him) warned the Muslims not to be carried away in praising the Messenger (peace and blessings be upon him and his family), even within the limits of reality, fearing that it would lead them to such false speech. So he (peace and blessings be upon him) said: , meaning: Do not praise me .
On this occasion, it must be remembered that the meaning of this hadith is not as some commentators mention; meaning: Do not exaggerate in my praise; no, rather, do not praise me absolutely; because he is not in need of being praised. And that is because the Christians went astray and reached the point of making Jesus the son of Allah because they opened the door for themselves to praise Jesus (peace be upon him). And we all know that "most of the fire comes from the smallest sparks." Satan, in his cunning with the children of Adam, does not surprise them with calamities and great matters; because that would alert his enemy, the human, so he would not fall into the trap of Iblis. Rather, he comes to him step by step. So, to block the means to harm, he (peace and blessings be upon him) said: ; do not praise me absolutely, . It is sufficient for you to say: .
And the evidence for what I said is that the scholars of hadith, including Imam al-Tirmidhi in his book "Al-Shama'il al-Muhammadiyyah," included it under the chapter on the humility of the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him and his family). If Imam al-Tirmidhi understood this hadith: meaning: Do not exaggerate in my praise; this meaning would not connect with the chapter; that is, the hadith would not be a heading for the chapter; because this does not indicate humility. It is obligatory for any person to say to people: Do not praise me with falsehood. This is not humility. But humility is when the hadith is understood on its apparent meaning: Do not praise me absolutely. This is humility. Why, O Messenger of Allah, when you are worthy of being praised? Because opening this door may lead you to falling into what the Christians fell into of excess. And this is actually observed today among Muslims. And this is the verse of poetry before you now, from many, many verses of the poem by Al-Busiri and others:
"For from your generosity is the world and its harm *** And from your knowledge is the knowledge of the Tablet and the Pen"
This is praise, but this is disbelief; because the Messenger (peace be upon him) heard a slave girl in his time saying: "And among us is a Prophet who knows what is in tomorrow." So he said: . So how would it be if the Messenger (peace be upon him) heard from Al-Busiri: "And from your knowledge is the knowledge of the Tablet and the Pen." There is no doubt this is misguidance that the Messenger (peace be upon him) would not approve of, because it is contrary to the Book, the Sunnah, and the consensus of the Ummah. So cutting off the root of these exaggerations is that the Muslim does not open the door of praise, especially in these anthems, and is content with reading what is established in the biography regarding the character of the Messenger (peace be upon him), and his miracles and his manners by which he opened these hearts that were blind hearts.
