The questioner : ... .
The Shaykh : Do you not know, Salim, that some people say: It is not permissible to describe Allah as being above the creation, nor below the creation, nor with the creation, nor connected to the creation, nor separate from the creation? There are people who say this, saying: It is not permissible to say that Allah is above, or below, or to the right, or to the left, or in the creation, or connected, or separate. What becomes of it, Salim? It is known falsehood according to their view. Did they establish a deity? No, they did not establish a deity, nor a Lord. Praise be to Allah who guided us to the truth.
