Can only God see the unseen?

Can only God see the unseen?

10:20 And they say, "Why is a Sign not sent down to him from his Lord?" So say, "The unseen is only for Allah, so wait; indeed, I am among the ones who wait with you."

(Some non-Muslims wrongly say that there is contradiction between this Verse and Verses below, but the context of Verse 10:20 is that God is the One Who sends down a Sign. In Verse 17:93, people asked for Signs, the answer was “Glorified is my Lord, “what am I but a human Messenger.””, so, only God sends down Signs)(Allah knows best)

27:39 A strong one of the jinn (l-jini) said, "I will bring it to you before you rise from your place. And indeed, I am surely strong and trustworthy for it."

(The Jinns are hidden from sight. The Verse does not specifically say that Solomon saw the jinn who was talking)(Actually, the root of “jini” (Jinn) is “Jiim-Nun-Nun”, and it means “veiled / concealed / covered / hid / protected, invisible, etc.”)(Allah knows best)

34:12 And to Solomon, the wind - its morning course was that of a month and its afternoon course was that of a month, and We caused to flow a spring of molten copper for him. And among the jinn were those who worked for him by the permission of his Lord. And whoever deviated among them from Our Command, We will make him taste the punishment of the Blaze.

17:93 Or you have a house of ornament or you ascend into the sky. And never we will believe in your ascension until you bring down to us a book that we could read." Say, "Glorified is my Lord, "what am I but a human Messenger."

19:17 Then she took a screen from them. Then We sent to her Our Spirit, then he appeared to her in the likeness of a well-proportioned man. … 19:19 He said, "I am only a Messenger from your Lord, that I may bestow on you a pure son."

(The Spirit was not seen in its true form. This is supported by Verse 6:9)(On the other hand, the Spirit is not God, but only a Messenger from God (19:19))(Allah knows best)

6:8 And they said, "Why has not an Angel been sent down to him?" And if We had sent down an Angel, surely the matter would have been decided; then no respite would have been granted to them. 6:9 And if We had made him an Angel, certainly We would have made him a man, and certainly We would have obscured them with that in which they are obscuring (themselves).

25:21 And those who (do) not expect (the) meeting with Us said, "Why are the Angels not sent down to us, or we see our Lord?" Indeed, they have become arrogant within themselves and (become) insolent (with) great insolence. 25:22 (The) Day they see the Angels, no glad tidings (will there be) that Day for the criminals, and they will say, "A forbidden partition."

53:1 By the star when it goes down, 53:2 Your companion has not strayed, nor has he erred, 53:3 And he does not speak from the desire. 53:4 It is not except a revelation revealed, 53:5 The (One) mighty in power has taught him, 53:6 Possessor of soundness. And he rose, 53:7 While he was in the highest horizon. 53:8 Then he approached and came down, 53:9 And was at a distance of two bow-(lengths) or nearer. 53:10 So he revealed to His slave what (ma) he revealed. 53:11 The heart (l-fuadu) did not lie what it saw. 53:12 Then will you dispute with him about what he saw? 53:13 And certainly he saw him in another descent, 53:14 Near the Lote Tree of the utmost boundary, 53:15 Near it is the Garden of Abode. 53:16 When that which covers covered the Lote Tree, 53:17 The sight did not swerve, nor did it transgress. 53:18 Certainly he saw the Greatest Signs of his Lord.

(It is said that an Angel was seen, but Verse 53:11 says that the heart saw, not the eyes. On the other hand, Verse 6:110 uses the same root word for “heart”, and it is distinct from “sight” in that Verse (“...their hearts and their sights...” (6:110))(Anyway, Verses 19:17 and 6:9 support the interpretation that the Angels are not seen in their true form, but in the likeness of a man)(Allah knows best)

6:110 And We will turn their hearts (afidatahum) and their sights (wa-absarahum) as they did not believe in it the first time. And We will leave them in their transgression, wandering blindly. 

3:124 When you said to the believers, "Is it not enough for you that your Lord reinforces you with three thousand Angels sent down? ... 9:26 Then Allah sent down His tranquility on His Messenger, and on the believers and sent down forces, which you did not see and He punished those who disbelieved. And that (is) the recompense (of) the disbelievers.
