Question:
Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success. This questioner says: Is it permissible to pray behind a man who says that Allah is in every place, or who says, “I do not say that Allah is above the Throne, and I do not say He is not above the Throne, but I remain silent”? Is it permissible to pray behind him?

Answer:
No, this is hululiyyah. This is hululiyyah. The one who says that Allah is in every place is a hululi, and it is not permissible to pray behind him. This is kufr (disbelief), and may Allah protect us from it. Yes.
