WAHABISM AND MONOTHEISM

Bin Baz's Al­Fatawi, part 1 page 317 verdict 7351:

Q3. What should I reply those who ask about the place of Allah?

A. You should answer that He is above His Throne. He, the Exalted, says, (The Beneficent settled on the Throne.)

It is necessary to clarify that the asker, in the previous question, asks about the material circumstance that encloses that material entity. Accordingly, that material entity should inexorably be confined in that space exclusively, and origin of that entity should be related with its existence in that circumstance. At any rate, the conclusion is that that material entity had no existence before being confined in that circumstance.

The juriscounsult should have rejected the form of the question originally, and informed the asker that it is impracticable to cite such questions about Allah, the Exalted. The juriscounsult, however, delineated his god as a material mass existent on the Throne. This requires declaring that the Throne, as Ibn Teimiya avers, was existent before Allah, the Exalted, or enjoyed his same eternity. He maintained that the Throne is consummatory and mendable!!
