The Meaning of the Word (Shadow) in the Hadith: (Seven Will Be in the Shadow of Allah)

Your Eminence, what is the meaning of "shadow" in the saying of the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him): (Seven Will Be in the Shadow of Allah on the Day There Is No Shadow Except His),Is it permissible for us to say: This shadow is the shadow of the Throne of Allah, as it came in the authentic hadiths from the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him). May Allah reward you for giving us the answer?
This could be the shadow of the Throne, as it came in a narration, but it has not been established to that extent.And it is possible that "in His shadow" means: The shadow that Allah (Mighty and Majestic) creates,As in the saying of the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him): (Every person will be in the shadow of his charity on the Day of Resurrection), and that is because on that day and in that arena there is no shadow, no trees, no buildings, or anything else. Allah (Mighty and Majestic) leaves the earth a flat, barren plain. There is nothing there except a shadow in which Allah shades you. So it is either the shadow of the Throne or the shadow of deeds.As in the hadith: (Every person will be in the shade of his charity on the Day of Resurrection) .
