Answer
Let me quickly start by saying that the feeling you have is actually very beautiful. The feeling of wanting to see Allah; the feeling of being “super exited to see Allah” comes from love, longing, and recognition of His greatness.
In Islam, love for Allah is the heart of faith — and that excitement you’re describing is something the prophets, the messengers of Allah, the Sahaba, the righteous, and the angels themselves share. Allah tells us that this world is a place of preparation, not arrival. We don’t see Him here, but everything around us points to Him — His mercy, His wisdom, His care, His nearness. Every breath, every moment of guidance, every comfort is a sign that He is already responding to you, even if you don’t see Him yet.
Islam gives incredible hope: the greatest joy of the next life is not paradise itself, but meeting Allah. Seeing Him is described as the ultimate gift — greater than any reward, pleasure, or success.
So let me be clear by saying that the super excitement you feel is not misplaced. It’s pointing toward your purpose. So when someone says, “I’m excited to see Allah”, Islam gently teaches: Keep nurturing that love. Get to know Allah through His names, His mercy, His guidance, and your relationship with Him. Every step toward Him in this life is a step closer to that meeting — a meeting filled not with fear, but with peace, recognition, and joy.
Your excitement isn’t strange. It’s meaningful. It’s a sign of a heart that’s awake. At the same time, Islam teaches something important and comforting: It teaches that no one – encompassing all – is in a state of seeing Allah in this mortal life. This world simply isn’t built for that kind of a very special encounter. Even Prophet Musa (Moses), peace be upon him, when he – out of great passion and love – asked to see Allah; he was also excited to see Allah; what happened? Allah gently showed him that the human condition cannot bear it here (in this mortal life), as clearly elaborated in the Qur’an:
“When Moses came at the appointed time and his Lord spoke to him, he asked: “My Lord! Reveal Yourself to me so I may see You.” Allah answered, “You cannot see Me! But look at the mountain. If it remains firm in its place, only then will you see Me.”. When his Lord appeared to the mountain, He levelled it to dust and Moses collapsed unconscious…” (Qur’an 7:143).
That wasn’t a rejection of love; it was a reminder that this life is a place of preparation, not destination; it’s a place of planting, not harvesting. Instead, Allah makes Himself known through His signs, His mercy, and His nearness. In another instance, Allah, the Almighty talks about Himself:
“No visual perception can encompass Him; but He grasps all visual perception, He is the All-Subtle, the All-Aware” (Qur’an 6:103)
This means that Allah is greater than what our physical senses can contain. The heart comes to know Him before the eyes ever do.
Islam then gives extraordinary hope: the ultimate joy of the next life is meeting and seeing Allah. The Prophet (PBUH), as reported in the Hadith made it clear that on the Day of Judgment, sighting Allah, the Supreme Creator, and looking at His Majesty would be the greatest joy for the people of Al-Jannah, he says:
“They will not have been given anything more beloved to them than looking at their Lord” – Reported by Sahih Muslim
So when someone says, “I would love to see Allah,” Islam doesn’t dismiss that feeling — it honors it. It says: maintain that passion, nurture that longing; but let it guide you towards knowing Allah, getting closer to Him through His names, His compassion, His guidance, and thus strengthen your relationship with Him through every act of sincerity, every moment of turning toward Him; that will definitely take you a step closer to that special meeting.
Hope this helps answers the question.
