Source: FtawySummary from Ftawy's records · added here Sep 2, 2026
Among the effects of belief in the Face of Allah: seeking refuge in Him, Glorified be He, as the Prophet, peace and blessings be upon him, did when the verse was revealed: (Say: He is the One Who has power to send forth punishment upon you from above you), and answering whoever asks by His Face, the Exalted, due to the Prophet’s saying, peace and blessings be upon him: "And whoever asks you by the Face of Allah, then give him," and yearning to see His Face, Glorified be He, as stated in the Prophet’s supplication, peace and blessings be upon him: "And I ask You for the delight of looking at Your Face."
