Allah has a hijab, which itself is noor.
If He were to raise the hijab, the rays of light from His noble face would destroy everything in existence. (sahih Muslim)
Musa AS was the only Prophet who spoke directly to Allah. When he asked to see Him, Allah said I will show myself to the mountain, and if it can withstand me, you can see.
When Allah revealed Himself to the mountain, it crumbled, and Musa AS fell unconscious.
We don't have the power to withstand His ultimate beauty.
“When the believers enter Paradise, Allah swt will say: 'Do you want anything more?' They will say, 'Have You not brightened our faces, admitted us to Paradise and saved us from Hell?’
Then the hijab will be lifted and they will not have seen anything more dear to them than looking at their Lord.” (Muslim,266)
But for the wrongdoers, they will be deprived of this most blessful gift. May we be amongst the believers, ameen

This past week, I've spent over 35 hours reviewing notes and writing the stories for each painting.
The hardest part is putting the inspiration on paper. Condensing pages of content to 3 paragraphs.
The above story is one that is an extension of Noor ala Noor painting that fell from the word count.
I had no idea how intricate this verse was!
Did you know? The majority of tafseer were written for this verse.
