The term "direction" is general; the Shari'ah neither affirms nor denies it, and what is mentioned in the Book and the Sunnah suffices for it.

Question:
Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success. He says: Our lesson in the books of creed states that the term "direction" is a general term for which the Shari'ah has neither affirmed nor denied it. As for its meaning, it is detailed based on what is mentioned in the Book and the Sunnah, and that suffices for it. What is mentioned in the Book and the Sunnah regarding the affirmation of being above and being high suffices for it. So how can it be said after that that...

Answer:
...there are four directions, my brother? There are four directions: right, left, above, and below. Do you believe that Allah is in any direction? It is necessary to know that Allah is in the direction of being above. You inform about Him, or rather, it is informed about Him, that He is in the direction of being above. Yes.
