And We made an appointment with Moses for thirty nights and perfected them
by [the addition of] ten; so the term of his Lord was completed as forty
nights. And Moses said to his brother Aaron, "Take my place among my
people, do right [by them], and do not follow the way of the corrupters."
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."
[ Allah ] said, "O Moses, I have chosen you over the people with My
messages and My words [to you]. So take what I have given you and be among
the grateful."
And We wrote for him on the tablets [something] of all things -
instruction and explanation for all things, [saying], "Take them with
determination and order your people to take the best of it. I will show
you the home of the defiantly disobedient."
I will turn away from My signs those who are arrogant upon the earth
without right; and if they should see every sign, they will not believe in
it. And if they see the way of consciousness, they will not adopt it as a
way; but if they see the way of error, they will adopt it as a way. That
is because they have denied Our signs and they were heedless of them.
