Al-'Aql Al-'Awwal (The Primordial Intellect/Firmware)

In Your Name every intellect cognizes

Al-'Aql Al-'Awwal (The Primordial Intellect/Firmware)
http://www.untiredwithloving.org/aql.html

Why I understand an object as you understand it the same way? Why I
understand what you say and you understand what I say? Why we
understand the sciences and laws of worlds millions of light years
away and with the same science we understand the surface of this
earth?

In this treatise we explore the concept of the Aql, often
mistranslated as mind or brain, as the primordial intellect, the very
first creation of Allah. The Arabic word Aql and many of its
derivatives appear within the Qur'an and Hadith (Prophetic Narration)
as well as the Islamic Philosophy texts and of course the Sufi texts.
What is this Aql? Why does primordial mean?

Read from the luminaries: Jurjani, Abu Hayyan Tauhidi, Ibn Arabi and
Ibn Kathir. Explore the Principle of Relativity and Feyman's double-
slit experiment and see how they related to this Aql and its
behavior.
