And what about Moses -as when he asked from his Lord: وَلَمَّا جَاءَ مُوسَى لِمِيقَاتِنَا وَكَلَّمَهُ رَبُّهُ قَالَ رَبِّ أَرِنِي أَنْظُرْ إِلَيْكَ قَالَ لَنْ تَرَانِي ….. [35] (7:143) And when Moses came to Us, and his Sustainer spoke unto him, he said: “O my Sustainer! Show [Yourself] to me, so that I might behold Yoursef!” Said [God]: “you will never be able to see Me.

وَيَوْمَ يَعَضُّ الظَّالِمُ عَلَى يَدَيْهِ يَقُولُ يَا لَيْتَنِي اتَّخَذْتُ مَعَ الرَّسُولِ سَبِيلًا(27) يَا وَيْلَتَى لَيْتَنِي لَمْ أَتَّخِذْ فُلَانًا خَلِيلًا (28) لَقَدْ أَضَلَّنِي عَنِ الذِّكْرِ بَعْدَ إِذْ جَاءَنِي ……….. [36] (29: 25) And a Day on which the evildoer will bite his hands [in despair], exclaiming: “Oh, would that I had followed the path shown to me by the apostle! Oh, woe unto me! Would that I had not taken so-and-so for a friend!

Indeed, he led me astray from the remembrance [of God] after it had come unto me!” Thus, who are those cruel people whose names Allah -azwj did not reveal in the Holy Quran but instead the names of His Prophets are included in the Book! I also find Him saying: وَجَاءَ رَبُّكَ وَالْمَلَكُ صَفًّا صَفًّا (89:22) Your Lord and rows and rows of angles will come and appear. هَلْ يَنْظُرُونَ إِلَّا أَنْ تَأْتِيَهُمُ الْمَلَائِكَةُ أَوْ يَأْتِيَ رَبُّكَ أَوْ يَأْتِيَ بَعْضُ آَيَاتِ رَبِّكَ………..

[37] (6:158) Do they, perchance, wait for the angels to appear unto them, or for their Sustainer [Himself] to appear, or for some of th Sustainer’s [final] portents to appear. وَلَقَدْ جِئْتُمُونَا فُرَادَى ……………. [38] (6:94) Indeed you have come to us, one by one! Thus, how it is possible that sometimes His blessings come to them and sometimes people go to Him? And I know He -azwj has revealed (11:17) [39] : And there is a witness to His Prophet, coming immediately after him.

And He -azwj Says: ثُمَّ لَتُسْأَلُنَّ يَوْمَئِذٍ عَنِ النَّعِيمِ (102:8) Indeed, questions will be asked regarding His Bounties! Thus, please inform me what are these Bounties? بَقِيَّةُ اللَّهِ خَيْرٌ لَكُمْ إِنْ كُنْتُمْ [40] (11:86) ‘What Allah has (firmly) established for you is the best for you, Please inform me what is the everlasting ‘Baqiya-tul-Allah’?

And Allah -azwj Says: أَنْ تَقُولَ نَفْسٌ يَا حَسْرَتَا عَلَى مَا فَرَّطْتُ فِي جَنْبِ اللَّهِ وَإِنْ كُنْتُ لَمِنَ السَّاخِرِينَ (39:56) Alas!
