Christians)” (musnad ahmad 2234)
To be taken allegorically/mutashabihat not literally like misguided groups do.early Muslims used to interpret figuratively.
for example Hands of Allah, foot, shin, laughter, his descent, his establishment etc… The true and actual meaning of these are known by none but Allah, however while explaining to ultra-curious laymen the best opinion is to interpret them into what suits Allah’s Majesty.

About space –time-direction
Ijma of Sahabas [ra] held the
view that Allah has no makaan (place, station).
“It is not to be asked ‘Where’, ‘How’, or ‘When’ for He created The time as well as space.”
“Allah was without place, and He is now as He
was then(no change) (Meaning existing without direction or place)
‘Uluww (highness) and ‘Athmah
(greatness), and this is without spaces (Al-amākan), directions, and limits as
these qualities are attributes of ajsam (bodies or created things).
He, the exalted, is not localized in space (mutahayyiz) as that necessitates tajsīm (anthropomorphism)
Allah existed when there was no place, then He created the Throne and kursiyy. He did not need the place, and He is, after creating the place, as He was before He had created it.”
“There is nothing whatsoever like unto Him, and He is the All-hearing, the All-seeing” (Qur’an 42/11)
Remove DUNIYA from heart when meeting PEOPLE
Remove I/MYSELF from heart when meeting ALLAH.
When I want to talk to allah I say prayers and when I want that he talk to me I recite quran- Hazrath Ali(ra)
