Teaching Children Question: Where is Allah

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
A questioner says: I teach my students in school, and every day I ask them, "Where is Allah?" They answer, "In the sky," and I have them memorize the evidence:
The Most Merciful [who is] above the Throne established.الرَّحْمَٰنُ عَلَى الْعَرْشِ اسْتَوَىٰ
[Taha 20:5]
Is this evidence sufficient, even though they are in the first grade of elementary school?

Answer:
Their prescribed lesson, the book prescribed for them, and do not teach them anything else, yes.

The presenter:
May Allah reward you, Honorable Shaykh,
