The report of Ibn al-Majishun in the book *Mukhtasar al-'Ulu*, which is that Allah (Mighty and Majestic) will come in a form other than His form on the Day of Resurrection.

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Regarding the book *Mukhtasar al-'Ulu* by al-'Ali al-Ghaffar, a report from Ibn al-Majishun is mentioned in it, which has been authenticated in this book. The report of the form is mentioned for him; I mean by the report of the form: when Allah (Mighty and Majestic) comes in a form other than His form on the Day of Resurrection, just as He comes to them in His form. It seems that this report was difficult for one of the people present with him, and it seems he asked him how He changes or something like that? So he said: "O fool! He changes your eyes so that you see Him in a form other than His form." There was no comment in the margin on this; so what is the correct understanding of this issue?

The Shaykh : The correct understanding, as it appears to me, is not as was said, but rather that Allah (Mighty and Majestic) manifests and appears... as a test for them in a form other than the form that Muslims know, and nothing else.
