Evidence for the fact that Allah’s rising above the Throne occurred after the creation of the heavens and the earth

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Honorable Shaykh, may Allah make you truthful, is there evidence that Allah’s rising above the Throne took place after the creation of the heavens and the earth?

Answer:
The verse, my brother, is: Glory be to
Allah, who created the heavens and earth in six days and then establishedاللَّهُ الَّذِي خَلَقَ السَّمَاوَاتِ وَالْأَرْضَ فِي سِتَّةِ أَيَّامٍ ثُمَّ اسْتَوَىٰ
[Al-A'raf 7:54]
This implies order and succession, meaning that the rising above the Throne came after, or followed, the creation of the heavens and the earth. This is from the noble verses.
