You called the Throne of the All-Encompassing a space *** and the rising above it a localization in a place (an example of terms that can carry a true meaning and a false meaning, namely "space")
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The Shaykh : He said:
"You called the Throne of the All-Encompassing a space *** and the rising above it a localization in a place
And you made a direction above the highest heavens *** and you weighed the negation of this with a scale"
Yes, this is the example. They say that if we affirmed that Allah (Glorified and Exalted is He) is above the Throne, then the Throne would be a space, a space that contains a thing just as a vessel contains water. And you made Allah (Mighty and Majestic), if He is rising above it, localized. You made Him localized. And you said that space and localization are impossible. Why? Because, in their claim, it necessitates ascribing a body to Allah and likening Allah to creation. For this reason, they denied space and localization. This is a denial of a term that can carry a true meaning and a false meaning. So when they denied it absolutely, the denial of what? The truth entered into it. For this reason, if the author does not mention the detail in this, we will mention it, if Allah wills.
