Nur-al-Nur (Light upon Light)

 “Allah is the Light of the heavens and the earth. 

The parable of His Light is a niche wherein is a lamp

the lamp is in a glass, the glass as it were a glittering star

lit from a blessed olive tree

neither eastern nor western

whose oil almost lights up 

through fire should not touch it

 Light upon Light. 

Allah guides to His Light whomever He wishes.

Allah draws parables for mankind, and Allah has knowledge of all things. ~Quran 24:35
