Verses from the Qur'an proving the believers' vision of their Lord on the Day of Resurrection.

Machine translationRead the Arabic original

The Shaykh : And among that is also the saying of Allah the Exalted:

⁽²²⁾ [Some] faces, that Day, will be radiant, ⁽²³⁾ Looking at their Lord.

وجوه يومئذٍ ناضرة إلى بها ناظرة

[Al-Qiyamah 75:22-23]

Write for me *nadhira* with the first letter and write for me *nadhira* with the second letter. Okay, the first one?
The student: The first is with the letter *dha* and the second is with the letter *za*.

The Shaykh : Okay, well done. The first *nadhira* is with the letter *dha* and the second *nadhira* is with the letter *za*. The difference between them is that the first, *nadhira*, is from *nadr* with the letter *dha* or from *nadhara* with the letter *dha*, which means beauty, and the second is from *nazar*, which means seeing. You say: I looked at him, meaning I saw him.
So in this verse is evidence that the believers look at Allah (Mighty and Majestic), and these are the radiant faces, because the radiant faces are the faces of the believers, as Allah the Exalted said:

[Some] faces, that Day, will be bright -

وجوه يومئذٍ مسفرة ضاحة مستبشرة

['Abasa 80:38]

And among that is the saying of Allah the Exalted:

For those who did good is the good and more. The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) has explained the "more" as looking at the Face of Allah the Noble. It is known that the explanation of the Qur'an by the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) is the strongest explanation after explaining the Qur'an by the Qur'an, because the Qur'an is explained either by the speech of Allah, or by the speech of the Messenger, or by the speech of the Companions, or by the speech of the Successors, or by the speech of the Imams and scholars after them. The highest type of explanation is explaining the Qur'an by the Qur'an, then explaining it by the Sunnah. If the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) explained the "more" as looking at the Face of Allah, then it is established that this is what is meant by it, because the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) is the most knowledgeable of people about the meanings of the speech of Allah (Mighty and Majestic).

للذين أحسنوا الحسنى وزيادة فقد فسر النبي صلى الله عليه وسلم الزيادة بأنها النظر إلى وجه الله الكريم ومن المعلوم أن تفسير النبي صلى الله عليه وسلم للقرآن هو أقوى ما يفسر به القرآن بعد تفسير القرآن بالقرآن لأن القرآن يفسر أما بكلام الله أو بكلام الرسول أو بكلام الصحابة أو بكلام التابعين أو بكلام الأئمة والعلماء من بعدهم ، وأعلى أنواع التفسير تفسير القرآن بالقرآن ثم تفسيره بالسنة فإذا كان النبي صلى الله عليه وسلم فسر الزيادة بأنها النظر إلى وجه الله تعين أن يكون هذا هو المراد بها لأن النبي صلى الله عليه وسلم أعلم الناس بمعاني كلام الله عز وجل .
