SEEING ALLAH

1949

“When the inhabitants of Paradise have entered Paradise, Allah, the Blessed, the High, will ask them, ‘Is there anything else you desire that I may give you?’ They will answer, ‘Have You not made our faces shine, have You not admitted us to Paradise and delivered us from the Fire?’ Thereupon, He will remove the veil and the inhabitants of Paradise will not have known any thing dearer to them than gazing at their Lord.’

(In it) their supplication will be: ‘Exaltations to You, Allah!’ And their greeting will be: ‘Peace!’ They will end their supplication with ‘Praise be to Allah, Lord of all the Worlds!’ If Allah should hasten evil to people as they would hasten good, their term would already have been decided. But We leave those who do not expect to meet Us to wander blindly in their insolence. ‘“10:10-11 Koran

Muslim with a chain up to Suhaib who related that the Messenger of Allah, praise and peace be upon him, said this.
