- Connecting you to the Scholars of Islam
The Prophet ﷺ said:
“The scholars are inheritors of the Prophets and they did not inherit the deenar nor dirham (i.e a particular type of currency within Arab countries) but they only inherited knowledge…”
So the true source in which knowledge should be sought from is the scholars of Islam.

Yes! above the 7th Heaven. Yes, He rose over His Throne in a manner befitting to His Majesy and Perfection. May Allah reward you, Sheikh and preserve you always in goodness...Aameen
Amin ukhti please you should do space between words السلام عليكم و رحمة الله وبركاته
Allahs presence is above the heavens. But allah watches over and is aware of all and every place. the bad places, the good places, the hidden and the unknown places.
Allah is free from place. Where was he before the creation?
@@imperfect_subject "place" for u and in your understanding isnt the same as the one Allah exists in. The "place" you are referring to is a creation. We follow what the revelation says anything relating to Allah. Whats not revealed, we dont speculate about
we say Allah says and the prophet says, you say my intellect says this can’t be… subhanAllah. Why bringing up before the creation was made, what that has to do with anything? Allah says He is fee al samaa (above the Heaven), and that He has established Himself over His throne, would any answer to where He was before creation change the answer to where He is now?

Allah. He is above the heavens.
Narrated Mu'awiyah b. al-Hakam al-Sulami:
I said: Messenger of Allah, I have a slave girl whom I slapped. This grieved the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ). I said to him: Should I not emancipate her? He said: Bring her to me. He said: Then I brought her. He asked: Where is Allah ? She replied: In the heaven. He said: Who am I ? She replied: You are the Messenger of Allah. He said: Emancipate her, she is a believer.

Grade: Sahih (Al-Albani)
Imam Abu Hanifah said: "And He has a hand and a face and dhaat (essence), as Allah mentions in the Qur'an. So whatever Allah mentioned in the Qur'an in regards to the face and the hand and the essence, then these are His Attributes without inquiry into their modality (bilaa kayf). And it is not to be said that His hand is His power, or His ni'mah (bounty), because it is nullification of the Attribute, and it is the statement of the people of al-Qadar and al-I'tizaal.” (al-Fiqhu'l-Akbar, 302)
Imam Abu Hanifah said: "The hand of Allah is above their hands, not like the hands of His creations." (al-Fiqhu'l-Absat, 56)

L’Imam An-Nawawiyy explique le ḥadīth al-Jâriyah (ḥadīth de la femme esclave)
بِسْمِ اللهِ الرَّحْمَنِ الرَّحِيم
Dans son commentaire du ṣaḥīḥ Mouslim, lors de l’explication du ḥadīth Al-Jâriyah (le ḥadīth de la femme esclave) l’Imam An-Nawawiyy a dit :
ce qui signifie: « Au sujet de sa parole (c’est-à-dire la parole du Prophète), ṣalla l-Lâhou `alayhi wa sallam « ayna l-Lâh ? » Elle répondit « fi s-samâ’ » Il lui demanda : « Qui suis-je ? » Elle répondit « Tu es le Messager de Allāh ». Il dit alors : Libère-là car elle est certes croyante ».
Ce ḥadîth fait partie des ḥadîth qui traitent des attributs de Allāh. Il y a, au sujet de ces ḥadîth, deux voies principales (madh-hab) au sujet de la croyance, que nous avons déjà clarifiées de nombreuses fois dans le livre au sujet de la Foi (c’est-à-dire le chapitre de la Foi dans le recueil de ḥadīth de Mouslim) ;
Et l’une de ces voies est : y croire sans plonger dans [le détail] du sens avec la croyance que rien n’est tel que Allāh, et [la croyance] qu‘Il est exempt de ce qui advient aux créatures.
La deuxième voie, c’est l’interpréter selon ce qui est digne de Lui. Ceux qui ont choisi cette position ont dit : ici le sens était de la tester, afin de voir: est-ce qu’elle était une monothéiste, qui croit effectivement que le Seigneur, Celui qui domine toute chose, Celui qui fait ce qu’Il veut, c’est Allāh Lui seul, et qu’Il est Celui pour lequel ceux qui font des invocations se dirigent vers le ciel, de la même façon que celui qui prie se dirige vers la Ka`bah; et ce n’est pas parce qu’Il serait circonscrit dans le ciel, de même qu’Il n’est pas circonscrit dans la direction de la Ka`bah, mais il en est ainsi parce que le ciel est la Qiblah de ceux qui font des invocations, et la Ka`bah est la direction de ceux qui prient. Ou bien elle faisait partie des adorateurs d’idoles, qui adorent les statues qui se trouvent tout autour d’eux, et lorsqu’elle a dit « fi s-samā' », il a été su qu’elle était une monothéiste, et qu’elle ne faisait pas partie des adorateurs d’idoles ; al-Qāḍī `Iyâḍ (grand savant malikite) a dit :
« قال القاضي عياض : لا خلاف بين المسلمين قاطبة فقيههم ومحدثهم ومتكلمهم ونظارهم ومقلدهم أن الظواهر الواردة بذكر الله تعالى في السماء كقوله تعالى {أَأَمِنتُم مَّن فِي السَّمَاءِ أَن يَخْسِفَ بِكُمُ الْأَرْضَ} ونحوه ليست على ظاهرها بل متأولة عند جميعهم »
Ce qui signifie : « il n’y a pas de divergence chez la totalité des musulmans que ce soit leurs savants spécialistes de jurisprudence, des fondements de la religion de la rhétorique ou les gens du commun, que les textes du Qour’ân et du ḥadīth où il est cité Allāh fi s-samâ’ ne sont pas prises dans le sens apparent mais ils sont interprétés [par ce qui est digne de Allāh] selon tous ».
Informations utiles :
- L’imam, le ḥāfiḍh Abou Zakariyyā Mouḥyi d-Dīn Yaḥyā Ibnou Charaf An-Nawawiyy est un savant de référence. Il est né en 631 et il est décédé en 676 de l’hégire (raḥimahou l-Lâh), c’est-à-dire il y a plus de 750 ans. Il est du madh-hab (École de jurisprudence) de l’Imam Ach-Châfi`iyy. Son charḥ (commentaire) du ṣaḥīḥ Mouslim est incontournable.
- Ici il explique le ḥadīth connu sous le nom de ḥadīth al-Jâriyah (le ḥadīth de la femme esclave), et il dit qu’au sujet de ce genre de ḥadīth (c’est à dire les ḥadīth équivoque -moutachābih-) il y a deux méthodologies correctes:
La première : croire en ce qui est révélé dans les Textes sans rentrer dans les détails du sens, tout en exemptant Allāh de toute ressemblance et caractéristique des créatures (c’est ce qu’on appelle l’interprétation globale).
La seconde : Interpréter selon un sens digne d’être attribué à Allāh qui est valable selon la langue arabe (c’est ce qu’on appelle l’interprétation détaillée).
Ces deux voies qui sont toutes les deux correctes ont en commun de ne pas prendre le sens apparent et d'exempter Allāh de toute ressemblance avec les créatures.
- Lors de son explication, il dit très bien que ce ḥadīth ne signifie pas que Allāh est dans le ciel.
Al-Qāḍī `iyâḍ rapporte l’unanimité sur le fait que la parole Allāh fi s-samâ' n’est pas à prendre au sens apparent
- Le Qāḍī `iyâḍ -juge- Abou l-Faḍl `Iyâḍ ibnou Moūçā ibnou `Iyâḍ al-Yaḥṣoubiyy connu sous le nom de al-Qāḍī `iyâḍ, est un grand savant Malikite. Il est né en 476 et il est décédé en 544 de l’Hégire (raḥimahou l-Lâh) c’est-à-dire il y a plus de 950 ans.
- Ici, il rapporte l’unanimité sur le fait que les versets du Qour’ân et les ḥadīth où il est cité « Allāh fi s-samā' » ne doivent pas être pris selon le sens apparent, mais qu’ils doivent être interprété par ce qui est digne de Allāh.
- Le ḥadīth de la femme esclave (ḥadīth al-jâriyah) dans lequel il est dit « fi s-samâ' » et le verset {'a-'amintoum man fi s-samâ'} [sôurat Al-Moulk] ne doivent donc pas être pris dans leur sens apparent selon l’unanimité
The jariya said above the heaven, these people would have given a different baseless answer and failed the question of the prophet صلى الله عليه وسلم. And yet, they can’t see their misguidance
Where was Allah SWT before the heavens, earth and ursh was created?
To say that Allah SWT is in a particular place is limiting his presence.
No need to address where Allah SWT is as this will lead to arguments and debates.
نَحْنُ أَقْرَبُ إِلَيْهِ مِنْ حَبْلِ الْوَرِيدِ (We are closer to him than [ his ] jugular vein).
Allah exists beyond the realm of time and space
Fatir 35:10
مَن كَانَ يُرِيدُ ٱلْعِزَّةَ فَلِلَّهِ ٱلْعِزَّةُ جَمِيعًاۚ إِلَيْهِ يَصْعَدُ ٱلْكَلِمُ ٱلطَّيِّبُ وَٱلْعَمَلُ ٱلصَّٰلِحُ يَرْفَعُهُۥۚ وَٱلَّذِينَ يَمْكُرُونَ ٱلسَّيِّـَٔاتِ لَهُمْ عَذَابٌ شَدِيدٌۖ وَمَكْرُ أُو۟لَٰٓئِكَ هُوَ يَبُورُ
Whoever desires honor [through power] - then to Allah belongs all honor. To Him ascends good speech, and righteous work raises it. But they who plot evil deeds will have a severe punishment, and the plotting of those - it will perish.
As-Sajdah 32:5
يُدَبِّرُ ٱلْأَمْرَ مِنَ ٱلسَّمَآءِ إِلَى ٱلْأَرْضِ ثُمَّ يَعْرُجُ إِلَيْهِ فِى يَوْمٍ كَانَ مِقْدَارُهُۥٓ أَلْفَ سَنَةٍ مِّمَّا تَعُدُّونَ
He arranges [each] matter from the heaven to the earth; then it will ascend to Him in a Day, the extent of which is a thousand years of those which you count.
As-Sajdah 32:4
ٱللَّهُ ٱلَّذِى خَلَقَ ٱلسَّمَٰوَٰتِ وَٱلْأَرْضَ وَمَا بَيْنَهُمَا فِى سِتَّةِ أَيَّامٍ ثُمَّ ٱسْتَوَىٰ عَلَى ٱلْعَرْشِۖ مَا لَكُم مِّن دُونِهِۦ مِن وَلِىٍّ وَلَا شَفِيعٍۚ أَفَلَا تَتَذَكَّرُونَ
It is Allah who created the heavens and the earth and whatever is between them in six days; then He established Himself above the Throne. You have not besides Him any protector or any intercessor; so will you not be reminded?
The evidences of the Qur'an and the sunnah prove Allah is above the Throne furthermore the salaf the first 3 generations AGREED upon this and asking how is a BIDAH as imam malik رحمه الله said.
If I said a clock has a face and two hands and you've never seen a clock before but you know how a human has a face and a hand you can't start trying to imagine the clock's face and hands and that's between a creation and a creation... so how then can you come with your own thoughts and say "well this means this so it must mean this" with regards to where Allah is and those people who deny the names and attributes of Allah and imagining the كَيْف the "how" which is the error Ibn Abbas reported: The Messenger of Allah, peace and blessings be upon him, said, “Reflect deeply upon the creation, but do not reflect upon the essence of the Creator. Verily, His essence cannot be known other than to believe in it.”
DO NOT ASK HOW DO NOT IMAGINE HOW DO NOT COMPARE IT TO THE CREATION.
Just SUBMIT TO THE EVIDENCES
@@proudirish_man6552 like I said. Allah exists beyond the realm of time and space
@@proudirish_man6552 You just need to stay away from Wahhabi translators
Why does salafis reject the notion that Allah is beyond the realm of time and space since he is the creator of time and space? That's because salafis want Allah to be in a direction and that direction is literally above which is absurd. Allah being above is a matter of prestige, not a matter of position.
@@beinghumble because they reject the minhaj (Islam Iman and Ihsan) of the Salaf. There minhaj is tawheed according to the understanding of Muhammad ibn Abdul Wahhab
Omniscient does not mean Omnipresent
Why the subtitles it’s close ?
Allah is free from place. Where was he before the creation?
@@imperfect_subject You don’t have shame, u same Muslim talk like Christians?? What type of nonsense question is this???
Allah swt was always separate from his creation.
You have 3 opitions
- Either Allah created everything inside of him
- Allah swt was above then entered his creation
- Or Allah swt created the universe and the creation outside of him.
Where is the reference of the hadith please?
Mua’wiyah ibn al-Hakam reported: I said, “O Messenger of Allah, I have a servant-girl whom I slapped.” That upset the Messenger of Allah, peace and blessings be upon him. I said to him, “Shall I emancipate her?” The Prophet said, “Bring her to me.” Then, she was brought and the Prophet said, “Where is Allah?” She said, “In heaven.” The Prophet said, “Who am I?” She said, “You are the Messenger of Allah.” The Prophet said, “Free her, for she is a believer.”

The mute slave girl , pointed to the sky, as oppose to the idols . So, I'm with the scholars who say this doesn't mean she was indicating Allah is above the throne. The prophet (as) saw that she didn't point to the idols, hence, she was a Muslim. I'm not saying , therefore, Allah is everywhere, rather, scholars who misread this specific hadith, seem to lack the ability to discern correctly. And Allah knows best.

Where my ancestry is from this is considered a pre Islamic polytheistic belief and most people who believe this use intercessors and worship jinn because they believe Allah is too distant and high to be approached. As if he is a person stuck and trapped on a very high building. It’s an odd interpretation of a literal truth. Why would “the all hearing one” not be everywhere? That would defeat the purpose of prayer and prostration to the literal most high
This is because your view of Allah is merely based on your intellect and not a combination of all the texts of Quran and sunnah. But to answer your question Allahs Hearing and Knowledge is in every place while still affirming that He rose over the Throne and that He is above His creation as He states about Himself. But if we were to use our intellects wouldn't it be possible for Allah to be above the heavens and still hear and know all things? Why would it necessitate Him being everywhere in His essence while He is the God of His creation?
@@al-binaapublishing It would be possible, which is exactly what my comment was implying. So it’s not only a possibility as you agnostically proclaim it to be But a fact and accurate characteristic. Being both the transcendent one and the most high isn’t a contradiction but possible is an understatement
But Salafis don’t believe that. They believe Allah is constrained and distant from all of humanity in an atheistic pre-islamicism sense that leads to jinn worship and polytheism
@@al-binaapublishing Omnipresence is not pantheism or Hinduism if that is what you are implying but the polar opposite is some weird form of paganism.
*_It is FARD/obligatory upon The True Muslim to affirm the Asma/Names & Sifat/Attributes of Allah, without committing:1️⃣Tahreef:To attach figurative & metaphorical meanings to the attributes of Allah, while denying the apparent meaning of the attribute2️⃣Ta'teel:Leaving & vacating🔥Negation/Denial of His Attributes & denial of His Self & Being. Denial of the real meaning proved by the Quran & Sunnah🔥Tahreef includes Tateel but Ta'teel does not include Tahreef🔥There are 2 types of Tateel:❌️1)Absolute Tateel: Which the Jahamiyyah committed:Denying all attributes of Allah❌️2)Partial Tateel:Which the Ash’ariyya & maturidiyya commit:Denying all attributes of Allah by Tahreef & affirming only 7 (Ashariyah) & 8 (Maturidiyah) attributes of Allah3️⃣Takyeef:To have faith that the Attributes of Allah are such & such or to put questions as to the state of His Attributes. The term "beghair Takyeef' means that the AhlusSunnah deny having knowledge of Allah's condition as Allah alone knows the state of His Self & His Attributes4️⃣Tamtheel: To have faith that the Attributes of Allah are like the Attributes of His creatures5️⃣Tafweed: To have faith that it’s not the apparent meaning which is meant but only Allah alone knows the meanings of the attributes6️⃣Tajseem:To have faith that Allah has a body. (We as AhlusSunnah neither affirm nor negate the attribute of body, since nothing has come in Quran & Sunnah concerning it & Aqeeda is a matter purely based on Revelation/Wahi as mentioned by Shaykh IbnUthaymeen RAHIMAHULLAH & Shaykhul Islam IbnTaymiyyah RAHIMAHULLAH✅So we do NOT affirm that He has a body while affirming his attributes). The Salaf understood the meanings of the passages of the Quran & the Sunnah & proved these meanings in the favour of Allah. However they would submit the knowledge of the reality (how of the attribute) To Allah. Imam Malik RAHIMAHULLAH was asked about the state of Istawa (Rising Above) of Allah on the Throne, he said Istawa is known but ‘how’ He ascended is unknown. The code of conduct of the AhlusSunnah wal Jamah is as the clear Quran’s verse:“There is nothing like Him.”-Quran (112:4)✔️The correct Aqeeda therefore, is NOT that the Attributes are completely denied as is the way of the Mutazila🔥(A Deviant sect), NOR is it to try to prove them completely as is the way of the Mumathila🔥(Another deviant sect✏Rather the true Aqeeda is to make an affirmation of the Attributes without similitudes/likeness✅SALAFIYYAH✅️_*
