Surah Al-A'raaf

And when Moses arrived at Our appointed time and his Lord spoke to him, he said, "My Lord, show me [Yourself] that I may look at You." [Allah] said, "You will not see Me, but look at the mountain; if it should remain in place, then you will see Me." But when his Lord appeared to the mountain, He rendered it level, and Moses fell unconscious. And when he awoke, he said, "Exalted are You! I have repented to You, and I am the first of the believers."﴿143

Translation

And when Moses arrived at Our appointed time and his Lord spoke to him, he said, "My Lord, show me [Yourself] that I may look at You." [Allah] said, "You will not see Me, but look at the mountain; if it should remain in place, then you will see Me." But when his Lord appeared to the mountain, He rendered it level, and Moses fell unconscious. And when he awoke, he said, "Exalted are You! I have repented to You, and I am the first of the believers."

Simplified Tafsir

ولما جاء موسى في الوقت المحدد وهو تمام أربعين ليلة، وكلَّمه ربه بما كلَّمه من وحيه وأمره ونهيه، طمع في رؤية الله فطلب النظر إليه، قال الله له: لن تراني، أي لن تقدر على رؤيتي في الدنيا، ولكن انظر إلى الجبل، فإن استقر مكانه إذا تجلَّيتُ له فسوف تراني، فلما تجلَّى ربه للجبل جعله دكًّا مستويًا بالأرض، وسقط موسى مغشيًّا عليه، فلما أفاق من غشيته قال: تنزيهًا لك يا رب عما لا يليق بجلالك، إني تبت إليك من مسألتي إياك الرؤية في هذه الحياة الدنيا، وأنا أول المؤمنين بك من قومي.
