143a. And when Moses came to Our
appointed tryst and his Lord had spoken unto him, he said: My Lord! Show me
(Thy Self), that I may gaze upon Thee. He said: Thou wilt not see Me, but
gaze upon the mountain! If it stand still in its place, then thou wilt see
Me.

Commentary
It is commanded that Prophet Moses (peace be upon Him) left to
live in solitude on mountain Sinai for the term fixed by Allah Almighty after
preparation. When He (peace be upon Him) reached there and turned His attention
unto Allah Almighty by removing from all sides, and Allah, the Most High spoke
to Him and from this conversation, He found a strange pleasure and
cheerfulness, a desire of seeing Allah Almighty was born in His heart. He
(peace be upon Him) thought: How much rejoice and awesomeness would be in His
(God’s) Presence, Whose Word is so much pleasant? Due to excessive fondness; He
(peace be upon Him) could not think that a physical eye can see just the colors
and patterns of a body. But there is no form of seeing Him (God) with this eye
Who is absolutely pure and devoid of body and corporeal.
However, fondness of viewing prevailed so much that
unhesitatingly, He (peace be upon Him) requested: O my Lord! Show me Thy Self
in any form, that I may see Thou with these bodily eyes of mine. It was
commanded: Until the human being is living in this world, he is bound by the
constitution of here. This is the inexorable law that physical eye cannot see
any unconditional thing.
However, it can be so, that any such scene should be
produced before you, with which, helplessness of the matter should manifest
upon you that the hardest thing of the world, even any most solid thing cannot
bear the Splendor of God Almighty, to Whom you desire to see. The human eye is
the weakest thing in the material sense. How will it bear That Light (of Allah
Almighty)?
You should gaze upon the mountain, which is in front
of you. We are going to put Our a little Brightness on it. If it endured and
stood still in its place, then you will also be able to see Us. Otherwise, you
should understand that in this world, seeing Allah Almighty is not possible.
The eyes, which have been given to the
mankind in this world, with them, he cannot see many things in their original
form. For example; the pleasure is a hidden thing, which cannot be seen by
these eyes. But one can see its signs. Design of the human face is changed.
Smile on the lips, a special kind of movement of the limbs, a new glow in the
eyes, frolic and jumping, laughing and a particular kind of laughter, observing
these gestures collectively, the sense of one decides that he gains happiness
and these are its indications. In the same way, a mankind cannot see Allah
Almighty, but by observing His Revelations and Tokens, can know Him easily and
set up His conception in own heart.
