Some hold that interpreting istiwaa' (rising above the Throne) as settling is a form of tashbih (likening Allah to creation); is this statement correct?

Question:
He says: Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success. Some scholars hold that interpreting istiwaa' (rising above the Throne) as settling is a form of tashbih (likening Allah to creation). Is this statement correct?

Answer:
In his view, it is a form of tashbih (likening Allah to creation), but for the people of the Sunnah and the community, it is not a form of tashbih (likening Allah to creation), and praise be to Allah. It is a settling that befits the majesty of Allah, but he does not understand it as anything other than the settling of a created being, and that is why it caused him difficulty. And as we told you, it is obligatory for the servant to submit and not to enter into these labyrinths. And something established from the Salaf (the earliest generations) is not permissible for a person to deny. And he answers with the opinion of whoever has a new opinion. Yes.
