when moses arrived at the appointed time and his lord spoke to him he said o lord reveal yourself to me that i may behold you. you cannot behold me he said. but look at the mountain if it remains firm in its place you may then behold me. but when his lord appeared on the mountain in his effulgence it crumbled to a heap of dust and moses fell unconscious. when he came to he said all glory to you. i turn to you in repentance and i am the first to believe.
ولما جاء موسى لميقاتنا وكلمه ربه قال رب أرني أنظر إليك قال لن تراني ولكن انظر إلى الجبل فإن استقر مكانه فسوف تراني فلما تجلى ربه للجبل جعله دكا وخر موسى صعقا فلما أفاق قال سبحانك تبت إليك وأنا أول المؤمنين
