Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The reader: The laughter from him "The occurrence of laughter from the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) when the scholar mentioned this great knowledge"

The Shaykh : Good, it contains evidence for the permissibility of laughter in affirming matters, because laughter indicates satisfaction, relaxation, and the absence of dislike. And when a person is told something that pleases him,
The student: Laughter

The Shaykh : He laughed and the features of his face began to shine, unlike when he is told something he dislikes. Yes.
The reader: "The fifth: The explicit mention"

The Shaykh : And if his laughter had been a denial of that, he would have said something like what
The man said to him: We seek intercession with Allah against you -yes- he began to glorify Allah until that was known in the faces of his companions. قال له الرجل إننا نستشفع بالله عليك -نعم- جعل يسبح حتى عرف ذلك في وجوه أصحابه
Yes.
The reader: "The fifth: The explicit mention of the hands, and that the heavens are in the right hand and the earths in the other"

The Shaykh : Yes, and that has come in the Qur'an in several places affirming the hands. We have previously spoken about combining the aspects in which this attribute was mentioned: the dual, the plural, and the singular. And the author (may Allah have mercy on him) said: "and the earths in the other hand" Yes, this does not mean that he denies the mention of the left. Because he mentioned the one after it. He said: What is after it?
The reader: "The sixth: The explicit naming of it as the left"

The Shaykh : Yes...
The reader: "The seventh: The mention of the tyrants and the arrogant at that time. The eighth: His saying" ..

The Shaykh : And the reason for mentioning them at that time is that if they have tyranny and arrogance now, let them say that as a challenge to them: Where is their tyranny and where is their arrogance?! Yes.
The reader: "The eighth: His saying:
Like a mustard seed in one of your palms. كخردلة في كف أحدكم
The ninth: The greatness of the Footstool"
..

The Shaykh : Good, and what is the benefit of this?
The student: ...

The Shaykh : Yes, and the validity of ... the palm on the hand of Allah (Mighty and Majestic). Yes.
The reader: "The ninth: The greatness of the Footstool relative to the heavens.
The tenth: The greatness of the Throne relative to the Footstool.
The eleventh: That the Throne is other than the Footstool and the water"
"That the Throne is other than the Footstool and the water. The twelfth ..."

The Shaykh : I have not seen anyone say that the Throne is the water, but there are those who say that the Throne is the Footstool, and they cited as evidence for that a hadith that came in the mention of intercession, that Allah the Exalted places His Footstool on the Day of Resurrection, and they thought that this Footstool is the Throne, but it is not it. And some people also claimed that the Footstool is the knowledge, and they said regarding His saying:
His Kursi extends over the heavens and the earth وسع كرسيه السماوات والأرض
[Al-Baqarah 2:255]
meaning He encompassed.
The student: His knowledge

The Shaykh : His knowledge, but this is not correct ... it says the place of the feet, and that the Throne is that upon which Allah (Glorified and Exalted is He) rose. Yes.
The reader: "The thirteenth: How much is between the seventh heaven and the Footstool.
The fourteenth: How much is between the Footstool and the water.
The fifteenth: That the Throne is above the water.
The sixteenth: That Allah is above the Throne.
The seventeenth: How much is between the heaven and the earth.
The eighteenth: The thickness of each heaven is one hundred years"


The Shaykh : Five hundred
The student: ...

The Shaykh : Five hundred
The student: This is not ...

The Shaykh : What? It is in the hadith of al-Abbas.
The student: ...

The Shaykh : No, read, read.
The reader: "The eighteenth: The thickness of each heaven is five hundred years.
The nineteenth: That the sea above the heavens, its bottom and its top, is five hundred"


The Shaykh : Between its bottom
The reader: "The nineteenth: That the sea above the heavens"

The Shaykh : The ninth, what?
The reader: The nineteenth

The Shaykh : Ten.
The reader: "The nineteenth: That the sea above the heavens, between its bottom and its top, is five hundred years. And Allah knows best, and praise be to Allah, Lord of the worlds, and may Allah send prayers and blessings upon our master Muhammad and upon his family and all his companions"

The Shaykh : It also contains, if the author had brought it, the twentieth: That Allah the Exalted is not hidden from Him anything of the deeds of the children of Adam. Yes, the twentieth, but since it is missing ... .
The student: ...

The Shaykh : ... it says that Allah is above that. Good, it is not possible.
The student: .Shaykh

The Shaykh : A minute, it is not possible. We can also affirm and say in the hadith, the warning against disobeying Allah (Mighty and Majestic), because the author (may Allah have mercy on him) focused on what relates to the oneness of Allah and creed. And Allah knows best, and praise be to Allah, Lord of the worlds, and may Allah send prayers and blessings upon our Prophet Muhammad and upon his family and all his companions, and we ask Allah to conclude for us and for you with the oneness of Allah.
The student: Ameen
