كَانَ أَوَّلُ مَا بُدِئَ بِهِ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ الرُّؤْيَا الصَّادِقَةَ فِي النَّوْمِ،

The first thing the Messenger of Allah, peace and blessings be upon him, experienced was the truthful dream during sleep.

بُدِئَ was begun

This verb is passive: its inner vowel pattern, not a helper word, shows the experiencing was done to the Messenger rather than by him. The starting-point of revelation is presented as something he received, so no separate doer is named.
