The Meaning of the Statement of Some Commentators: He Comes and Descends, and He is Above His Throne

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Honorable Shaykh, what is the meaning of the statement of some commentators that Allah (Glorified and Exalted is He) comes and descends, and He is above His Throne?

Answer:
We do not address the manner. We affirm that Allah is above His Throne, and that He is in the height, and we affirm that He comes and descends, as He has affirmed that for Himself. As for the manner, Allah knows it best. Yes.
