May Allah reward you, Honorable Shaykh. This questioner says: How do we respond to those who say that Allah is everywhere, citing the saying of Allah the Exalted:[Al-Hadid 57:4]?
Answer:
[Al-Mulk 67:16]. Who is the One in the sky? Huh? Allah. So He described Himself as being in the sky in two verses, or even more. He is in the sky, above His creations. He is the Subduer above His servants. They fear their Lord from above them. Yes.
