No one is part from Allah. Allah, The Glorious Has Created the Prophet Muhammad (SAWA) and his Progeny Ahlul Bayt (AS) from His Noor but no one is part from Allah.

This does not mean that Adam was created from a part of Allah.

'We believe that no one and nothing can be part of Allah.

Du'a (Supplication) . God (Allah) . Ahl al-Bayt . Imam Ali Zayn al-Abidin . Hadith al-Nur

I have read that in the Monday dua of Imam Sajjad (as) it reads that there was no witness when Allah created the heavens and Earth. If the Noor of the Prophet (s) and Ahlulbayt (a) had already been created, would they not have been witnesses?

Allah The Exalted Has Created the Noor of the Prophet (SAWA) and Ahlul Bayt (AS) with out any witness. They were the first creatures. Creating these most sacred servants of Allah (SWT) is the start of the creation of the heavens and earth and took place with out any witness.

‘Wassalam.
