Question:
Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success, why did the author (may Allah have mercy on him) omit Allah's speech to our Prophet Muhammad (peace and blessings be upon him), given that it was reported that He addressed him with the five prayers without an intermediary, and that this occurred on the night of the Isra and Mi'raj?
Answer:
Yes, Allah's speech to our Prophet Muhammad (peace and blessings be upon him) falls under the category of Allah speaking to His servant from behind a veil. The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) did not see Allah; rather, He spoke to him from behind a veil, just as happened to Musa (peace be upon him). However, speaking without an intermediary on a permanent basis was the case with Musa, whereas for Muhammad it happened only once.
