On where is Allah
The establishment of His Throne in the heaven is known, and His Throne in the earth is the hearts of the People of Pure Monotheism (ahl al-tawhid).
Allah said: { and eight will uphold the Throne of their Lord that day, above them} (69/17), and [concerning] the throne of the hearts: { We carry them on the land and the sea} (17/70).
As for the throne of the heaven: the Merciful established Himself over it (`alayhi istawa); and as for the throne of the hearts: the Merciful conquered it (`alayhi istawla).
The throne of the heaven is the direction of the supplication of creatures, while the throne of the heart is the locus of the gaze of the Real (Allah) .
Hadith of Slave girl which khawarijs used to prove Allah is only in sky.
The first is to have faith in it without discussing its meaning, while believing of Allah the Exalted that “there is nothing whatsoever like unto Him” (42/11), and that He is exalted above having any of the attributes of His creatures.
Point of the hadith was to test
the slave girl: Was she a monotheist, …
since the sky is the qiblah of those who supplicate, as the Ka‘bah is the
qiblah of those who perform the prayer–or was she a worshipper of the
idols which they placed in front of themselves? So when she said according
to the literal translation, “In the sky”, it was plain that she was
not an idol worshiper…
God 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)
