[Machine] Blessed are the eyes that saw the Messenger of Allah ﷺ . By Allah, if only we had seen what you saw and witnessed what you witnessed! I became angry and said, "The best thing he ever said was... Then he turned to him and said, "What makes a man long for a presence that Allah has kept hidden from him? He does not know what it would be like if he witnessed it!" By Allah, there were people present in the time of the Messenger of Allah ﷺ whom Allah had favored, but they neither responded to him nor believed in him. Do you not praise Allah when He led you out of ignorance, and you had no knowledge of anyone except your Lord, affirming what your Prophet brought to you? You have been spared afflictions by the efforts of others. By Allah, Allah sent the Prophet ﷺ at the most difficult time, in which no prophet had been sent before, in an era of ignorance, when people did not consider any religion better than idol worship. He brought a criterion by which he distinguished between truth and falsehood, and separated a person from his parent or child, to the extent that a man might see his parent or child or brother as a disbeliever, even though Allah had opened his heart to accept faith and he knew that if he died, he would enter Hellfire. His eyes would not cry, knowing that his loved one would be in the Fire, which Allah has described as, "Those who say, 'Our Lord, grant us from among our wives and offspring comfort to our eyes..." (Quran 25:74).
