There are differences of opinion as to which thing was created first. In the Hadith of Tirmidhi it mentions The ‘Pen’.
قَالَ عَطَاءٌ ÙÙŽÙ„ÙŽÙ‚Ùيت٠الْوَلÙيدَ بْنَ عÙبَادَةَ بْن٠الصَّامÙت٠صَاØÙب٠رَسÙول٠اللَّه٠صلى الله عليه وسلم

Ø¥ÙنّÙÙŠ سَمÙعْت٠رَسÙولَ اللَّه٠صلى الله عليه وسلم ÙŠÙŽÙ‚Ùول٠â€"†إÙنَّ أَوَّلَ مَا خَلَقَ اللَّه٠الْقَلَمَ Ùَقَالَ اكْتÙبْ â€.†Ùَقَالَ مَا أَكْتÙب٠قَالَ اكْتÙب٠الْقَدَرَ مَا كَانَ وَمَا Ù‡ÙÙˆÙŽ كَائÙÙ†ÙŒ Ø¥ÙÙ„ÙŽÙ‰ الأَبَد٠â€"†â€.†قَالَ أَبÙÙˆ عÙيسَى وَهَذَا ØَدÙيثٌ غَرÙيبٌ Ù…Ùنْ هَذَا الْوَجْه٠â€.â€
Ubadah ibn Samit (رضي الله عنه) says, Indeed I heard the Messenger of Allah ( صلي الله عليه وسلم ) saying: "Verily the first of what Allah created was the Pen. So He said: 'Write.' It said : 'What shall I write?' He said : 'Write Al-Qadar, what it is , and what shall be, until the end.'
In another, it is ‘My Nur ’ ( صلي الله عليه وسلم)‘The Intellect’, ‘The Spirit’ and ‘The Throne’. To reconcile with the varies opinions it could be said that these were amongst first things created by Allah before their kind I.e. the Pen before the creation of trees, the Nur of the Messenger before any Nur, the Intellect being the most subtle part of the body and the Throne being thick and huge in size.
Some say the Hadith of the Intellect is Mawdu’ (fabricated) and the other Hadiths are free from any interpretation.
Allama Qastalani رØمه الله says the Nur of the Messenger صلي الله عليه وسلم has priority over the Pen.
