Have you read MM Sharif book? There is a whole chapter on Alfarabi maybe it wil be of some help.
I have left this topic, but when I was preparing Ibn Sina his whole cosmology was very much inspired by Farabi and in turn al farabi was influenced by Aristotle.

yeah you are very much proximate to the facts that there is a sequence of inspirations, and their Cosmology is taking us to the next level of intellect. i'm actually loving it but problem arises that whenever i try to investigate it a bit more....things start getting out of my comprehension. that's pathetic. the more i try to organize, the more chaos is being introduced to Me...!

I know the topics are quite scary when you have no background in Philosophy.
Farabi is not that important topic, on the contrary Ibn sina and Ibn Rushd are. So my suggestion is to concentrate on the other topics. In past papers Questions on Farabi were. Farabi contributions to logic. Farabi concept of Modality.
