(Explanation that the Messenger is the most eloquent of people and his speech is clear and distinct, with the example of the believers seeing their Lord on the Day of Resurrection being like our seeing the moon on the night of the full moon)

The Shaykh :"After the Messenger’s clarification to a seer *** there is nothing but blindness and the defect in the blind"
Correct. Is there any clarification after the Messenger’s clarification? Never. But the blind person does not perceive it, and the defect is in the blind, meaning: the blind of insight, not the blind of sight. He said:
"So look at the Messenger’s words to a questioner *** from among his Companions regarding the seeing of the Most Merciful"
"Look" means, O human being, look with contemplation. Look at the Messenger’s words to whom? To a questioner from among his Companions, meaning from the Companions, regarding the seeing of the Most Merciful, regarding the seeing which is connected to the questioner
A man asked the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him): "Will we see our Lord?" He said: "Yes." رجل سأل النبي صلى الله عليه وسلم هل نرى ربنا قال نعم
.
"Truly, you will see your Lord on the Day of Meeting *** with the vision of direct sight, just as the two moons are seen"
Is there anything clearer than this? When he said:
"Will we see our Lord?" He said: "Yes, you will see your Lord as you see the moon on the night of the full moon, and as you see the sun on a clear day with no cloud between you and it." هل نرى ربنا؟ قال: نعم، إنكم سترون ربكم كما ترون القمر ليلة البدر، وكما ترون الشمس صحوا ليس دونها سحاب
. He says:
"Like the full moon on the night of its fullness and the sun" meaning: and like the sun
"in *** the midday zenith; they are not two similes"
"They are not" means the two things seen, meaning: you will see your Lord like the moon and the sun, not in the sense that Allah is like the sun or like the moon, but rather his intent was to establish our seeing of Him. Whose intent? The intent of the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) when he said:
you shall see your Lord as you see the moon ترون ربكم كما ترون القمر
Jami` at-Tirmidhi 2554Sahih (Darussalam)
his intent with that was to establish the vision. For this reason, the letter "kaf" entered the derived noun from the verb, "you will see your Lord as you see," meaning: as your seeing, and it did not enter the Divine Name, he did not say "you will see your Lord," yes, and it did not enter the term of the thing being compared to, meaning he did not say "you will see your Lord like the moon," wait, Abd al-Rahman, "you will see your Lord like the moon," but he said "as you see," so the comparison, then? Here? is of the vision to the vision, not of the seen to the seen, and yes, and what does he say:
"Rather, his intent was to establish our seeing of Him *** so he brought forth the clearest of what is seen with direct sight"
