Sayyiduna Abdullah bin Abbas (may Allah be pleased with them both) said: Sayyiduna Muhammad (peace and blessings be upon him) saw his Lord. Ikrimah said: "O Sayyiduna Abdullah bin Abbas (may Allah be pleased with them both)! Has Allah Almighty not said: 'Vision cannot perceive Him, and He perceives all vision'?" Sayyiduna Abdullah bin Abbas (may Allah be pleased with them both) said: "May you be without a mother! What is meant is that when He manifests Himself in His particular manner, no sight can withstand Him." (Allamah al-Haythami says:) Al-Tirmidhi has also recorded a hadith from him, which is other than this narration.
Al-Tabarani recorded it; its chain contains the narrator Ibrahim bin al-Hakam bin Aban, who is matruk (abandoned).
