حَدَّثَنَا إِسْحَاق بْنُ مُوسَى الْأَنْصَارِيُّ، حَدَّثَنَا يُونُسُ بْنُ بُكَيْرٍ، أَخْبَرَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ إِسْحَاق، حَدَّثَنِي الزُّهْرِيُّ، عَنْ عُرْوَةَ، عَنْ عَائِشَةَ، أَنَّهَا قَالَتْ : " أَوَّلُ مَا ابْتُدِئَ بِهِ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ مِنَ النُّبُوَّةِ حِينَ أَرَادَ اللَّهُ كَرَامَتَهُ وَرَحْمَةَ الْعِبَادِ بِهِ أَنْ لَا يَرَى شَيْئًا إِلَّا جَاءَتْ , مِثْلَ فَلَقِ الصُّبْحِ ، فَمَكَثَ عَلَى ذَلِكَ مَا شَاءَ اللَّهُ أَنْ يَمْكُثَ , وَحُبِّبَ إِلَيْهِ الْخَلْوَةُ , فَلَمْ يَكُنْ شَيْءٌ أَحَبَّ إِلَيْهِ مِنْ أَنْ يَخْلُوَ " . قَالَ أَبُو عِيسَى : هَذَا حَسَنٌ صَحِيحٌ غَرِيبٌ .
´Narrated 'Aishah:` "The first of what the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) initiated with of Prophethood, when Allah wanted to honor him and grant His mercy upon His creatures, was that he would not see anything (in a dream) except that it would occur like the break of dawn. So he continued upon that for as long as Allah willed for him to continue, and seclusion was made beloved to him, such that there was not anything more beloved to him than being alone."

Hadith Commentary:
In this very first revelation, you were encouraged to acquire knowledge.
Alongside this, the creation of man was mentioned.
Within this is an indication that the foremost duty of man is first to attain knowledge of his Lord, and then to recognize his own existence and his own self.
There are also subtle indications in this regarding the etiquettes of acquiring knowledge.
Reflect, O people of understanding.

➊
Imam Bukhari rahimahullah has narrated this hadith in an extremely concise manner.
Hafiz Ibn Hajar rahimahullah states:
“In my opinion, even Imam Bukhari’s rahimahullah teacher, Yahya ibn Bukayr, would not have narrated it to him in this way.
Nor did he (Yahya ibn Bukayr) make such an abbreviation; rather, it appears that this is the action of Imam Bukhari rahimahullah himself.
From this, it is evident that Imam Bukhari rahimahullah considered this type of abbreviation to be permissible.”
(Fath al-Bari: 8\923)

Hadith Commentary:
1.
Allah Ta'ala is Akram (Most Generous) in the sense that He provided all the means necessary for man's life and survival even before his creation. Then Allah Ta'ala also placed within human nature the method of utilizing these means. It is with the name of this very Akram that you are commanded to read.
2.
Allah Ta'ala is Akram for mankind in every aspect of life. He is also Akram in that He taught man the method of using the pen, through which knowledge can be disseminated on a wide scale, and written material remains even after the death of a scholar and continues to be transmitted from generation to generation.

"Ayyu" is a construct noun (mudaf ilayh) in the plural form,

Salam (greeting of peace):
Salam is a superior gift from Islam for Muslims,
which is both excellent and profound, for in it, along with supplication, there is also the benefit that when two people meet, by conveying the greeting of peace to each other, they reassure one another that from my side you have every kind of safety,
there is no need for any kind of anxiety or apprehension.
