• فَإِنَّ آخِرَ مَرَاتِبِ الْحُبِّ هُوَ التَّتِيمُ وَأَوَّلُهُ العَلَاقَةُ لِتَعَلُّقِ القَلْبِ بِالْمَحْبُوبِ

  So indeed, the final rank of love is orphanhood, and its first is attachment for the attachment of the heart to the beloved.

  وَأَوَّلُهُ — and its first. The connecting 'and' fused to a noun 'its first' with 'its' attached, the suffix pointing back to 'love'. The 'and' starts a parallel clause about the first stage, and the suffix ties it to love's ranks.
