Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Honorable Shaykh, may Allah preserve you. Regarding the saying of Allah the Exalted about the companion of Sulayman (peace be upon him)[An-Naml 27:40], is it not the case that what this man did was a matter of acquired knowledge, such as the sciences that came into being later? When Allah described him, He said "He who has knowledge." The one who has knowledge of the Book called upon Allah.
Answer:
The one who brought the Kursi (the Footstool) and the 'Arsh (the Throne) is Allah (Exalted and Majestic is He) by His power and will. He only carried it out through the hand of this righteous servant because he called upon Him, and Allah responded to him. This is not within the capability of humans. Yes.
