Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
May Allah reward you, Your Eminence, father. The questioner asks: What is the ruling on one who denies the exaltation of Allah the Exalted above the Throne? Does he become a disbeliever or not?

Answer:
He becomes a disbeliever if he says that Allah is in every place, for he disbelieves in Allah and His Messenger and in the consensus of the Muslims regarding the exaltation of Allah (Glorified and Exalted is He) above His creation. Yes, this is from the people of hulul (pantheism). Yes.
