Page 167 - The Majesty of Allah عَزَّوَجَلَّ

In this lesson of Sūrah Al-A‘rāf verses 138-143, Shaykh Dr. Aḥsan Ḥanīf discusses the trials faced by the Children of Israel after their miraculous crossing of the sea, highlighting their encounter with idol-worshippers and the impact this had on their faith. Despite witnessing Allah’s power, some among them requested idols, to which Mūsa عَلَیهِ‌السَّلام responded by reprimanding them for their ignorance. The lesson continues as Mūsa عَلَیهِ‌السَّلام reminds them of Allāh's blessings, including their salvation from Pharaoh. Additionally, Shaykh Dr. Aḥsan Ḥanīf addresses the profound moment when Mūsa requests to see Allāh عَزَّوَجَلَّ, leading to a divine display that causes him to fall unconscious, emphasizing Allāh’s unmatched majesty.
