His veil is light.حجابه النور.
He says: Is this light from the Night Journey and Ascension? And what is the manner of seeing Allah by the heart?

By faith. Seeing Allah by the heart is through strong faith and certainty, as if you are seeing Him,
To worship Allah as if you see Himتعبد الله كأنك تراه
