Question:
And the Shaykh, may Allah grant you success, what is the connection between the jealousy you mentioned regarding Musa (peace be upon him) and his Lord, and the Angel?
Answer:
What did the Angel strike? What did he strike? One who believes he is an Angel? Musa (peace be upon him) could not strike the Angel, but he struck a man who came to him. The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) was awe-inspiring and possessed of jealousy, so no one dared to encroach upon him, and he struck him out of jealousy, out of jealousy. Yes.
