What is the meaning of "in the shade of His Throne"?

Machine translationRead the Arabic original

The questioner : I say that the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said:

In the shade of His Throne

في ظل عرشه

The Shaykh : Yes, first of all, there is doubt regarding the authenticity of this phrase. This... it is not established from the Messenger (peace and blessings be upon him). That is the end of it.
The reader: "He knows their conditions, hears their words, sees their actions, and manages their affairs. He provides for the poor and heals the broken.

He gives sovereignty to whom He wills and takes sovereignty away from whom He wills. He honors whom He wills and humbles whom He wills. In His hand is all good, and He is over all things competent.

يؤتي الملك من يشاء وينزع الملك ممن يشاء ويعز من يشاء ويذل من يشاء بيده الخير وهو على كل شيء قدير

And whoever is of this nature is truly with His creation, even if He is above them on His Throne in reality.

There is nothing like unto Him, and He is the Hearing, the Seeing.

ليس كمثله شيء وهو السميع البصير

[Ash-Shuraa 42:11]
