asked the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ): Did you see thy Lord? He said: (He is) Light;
how could I see Him? (Explaining

Shaqiq reported:
I
said to Abu Dharr: Had I seen the Messenger of Allah, I would have asked him.
He (Abu Dharr) said: What is that thing that you wanted to inquire of him? He
said: I wanted to ask him whether he had seen his Lord. Abu Dharr said: I, in

79: The saying of the Prophet (saws): "Allah does not sleep" and
"His veil is light, and if he were to remove it, the splendour of his face
would burn all of his creation, as far as hs sght reaches".
Abu Musa
reported:
The
Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) was standing amongst us and he told us five things. He
said: Verily the Exalted and Mighty God does not sleep, and it does not befit
Him to sleep. He lowers the scale and lifts it. The deeds in the night are
taken up to Him before the deeds of the day, and the deeds of the day before
the deeds of the night. His veil is the light. In the hadith narrated by Abu
Bakr (instead of the word "light" ) it is fire. If he withdraws it
(the veil), the splendour of His countenance would consume His creation so far
as His sight reaches. (Explaining

mention the words" His creation" and said: His veil is the light. (Explaining

the deeds of the night in the day. (Explaining

'Abdullah

Apostle (ﷺ) said:
There
would be two gardens (in Paradise) the vessels and contents of which would be
of silver, and two gardens whose vessels and contents would be of gold. The
only thing intervening to hinder the people from looking at their Lord will be
the mantle of Grandeur over His face in the Garden of Eden. (Explaining
Sahih Muslim Book 1 - Hadith 353)
Suhaib reported
the Apostle (ﷺ) saying:
When
those deserving of Paradise would enter Paradise, the Blessed and the Exalted
would ask: Do you wish Me to give you anything more? They would say: Hast Thou
not brightened our faces? Hast Thou not made us enter Paradise and saved us
from Fire? He (the narrator) said: He (God) would lift the veil, and of things
given to them nothing would he dearer to them than the sight of their Lord, the
Mighty and the Glorious. (Explaining

He
then recited the verse:" Those who do good will have the best reward and
even more" (x. 26) (Explaining
