As-Salaam Alaikum Wa-Rahmatullahi Wa-Barakatuhu .
*Allah is the Light of the Heavens and the Earth*
The parable of His Light is as if there were a niche and within it a lamp,
the lamp enclosed in glass,
the glass shining like a radiant star:
lit from a blessed tree -
an olive tree neither of the East nor of the West -
whose oil would almost give light (of itself) even though it had not been touched by fire.
*Light upon Light *!
'Allah guides whom He will to His Light."
'Allah doth set forth Parables for men: and Allah doth know all things.'
{Source :- Quran~ Surat An-Nūr (The Light) ~24 A # 35}
Ubayy ibn Ka`b[ra] said:-
'The similitude of His light takes place in the Muslim's heart.'
[Source:- Ibn Kathir~ # 3:464]
This light, which HE has placed in the heart, love, faith and the remembrance of God.
It is the light that He has sent down to His servants,
by which He gives them life, and by which they walk among people. Its origin is in their hearts, but then HE strengthens and increases it until it appears upon their...
faces, limbs, bodies, even their clothes and dwellings.
People of this nature perceive it~
while others deny it !
On the Day of Judgement, however, it will come forth by their faith, and hasten before them in the darkness of the Bridge,
that they might cross it {!!!}
They will proceed in proportion to either its strength or its weakness in their hearts during their life in the world.

"All that is on earth will Perish. But will abide {Forever}
the Face of thy Lord, full of Majesty, Bounty and Honour"
{'Quran'- Surah Al-Rahman-55.26-27 }
Son of Adam! You are nothing but a number of days,
whenever each day passes then part of you has Gone!
{Al-Hasan Al-Basree}
