Regarding him, Allah—Mighty is His praise—says: {And We will ease you toward ease} (Al-A'la 8).
In each hand are five fingers by which the palm is established. The first of the fingers of the right hand is the thumb; it is the mother of the palm and the manager of all the fingers.

It was called "Ibham" (thumb) because the inverted creatures were kept in ambiguity (ubhimu) regarding the knowledge of its reality, and its matter was hidden. The second is the "Sabbaba" (index finger); it is the witness to the Monotheism of Allah and indicative of Him, used for gesturing during prayer, supplication, and entreaty. It is the person of the "Mim" [Muhammad]—peace be upon him—who is the proof for the knowledge of the Pre-eternal—Mighty is His praise—and through him we found Him and declared His oneness. The meaning of its name "Sabbaba" is that the "Mim"—peace be upon him—is the "Sabab" (Cause/Link) between the Pre-eternal and His creation, and the Causer of causes by His command. The middle finger indicative of the person of Master al-Hasan, who is the middle of the persons of the "Mim".
