Some people say that the shadow of the Throne is from the light of Allah; is this correct?

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The questioner : May Allah reward you. Some people say that the shadow of the Throne is from the light of Allah; is this correct?

The Shaykh : The shadow of the Throne is from the light of Allah?!

The questioner : Yes.

The Shaykh : How is that?

The questioner : The shadow must be beneath the light.

The Shaykh : Yes, and this is the sun, and the sun appears to the creation. Therefore, this leads us to say, if the statement is correct, that it is in the shadow of His Throne, because it is known that the Throne is above everything. How can it be a barrier between the sun and the creation on the Day of Resurrection? In any case, what is in the two Sahihs does not mention the shadow of the Throne.

The questioner : Shaykh.

The Shaykh : Yes

The questioner : Some people

The questioner : Three

The Shaykh : Three, so leave it for later, Salim.
