The believers’ vision of their Lord on the Day of Resurrection

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Is the vision of Allah the Exalted on the Day of Resurrection for all the people of Paradise, or only for a group of them?

Answer:
It is for all the people of Paradise. The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said:
You will see your Lordإنكم سترون ربكم
Just as you see the moon on a clear night, and just as you see the sun on a clear day with no clouds between you and it; you will not be crowded in seeing Him, or you will not be crowded in seeing Himكما ترون القمر ليلة البدر كما ترون الشمس صحوا ليس دونها سحاب لا تضامون في رؤيته أو لا تضامون في رؤيته
This is for all the believers. The only ones who are veiled from seeing Allah are the disbelievers:
No! Indeed, from their Lord, that Day, they will be partitioned.كَلَّا إِنَّهُمْ عَن رَّبِّهِمْ يَوْمَئِذٍ لَّمَحْجُوبُونَ
[Al-Mutaffifin 83:15]
As for the believers, they all see Allah (Glorified and Exalted is He) face to face with their eyes. Yes.
