Lesson 39:

[AFFIRMING THAT ALLAH IS WITH HIS CREATION AND THAT IT DOES NOT NEGATE HIS TRANSCENDANCY OVER HIS THRONE]

And like his saying ﷺ: ‘The best (quality) of faith is that you know that Allah is with you wherever you may be.’ [al-Tabarani, al Bayhaqi – Hassan]

And like his saying ﷺ: ‘When any one of you stands for prayer, he must not spit in front of him or to his right because Allah is in front of him; however (he may spit) to his left or under his foot.’ Bukhari, Muslim]

And like his saying ﷺ: ‘O Allah! Lord of the seven heavens and the earth, Lord of the great Throne, our Lord and the Lord of everything, the Splitter of the seed and plant, Revealer of the Tawrat, Injil, and the Qur’an: I take refuge with You from the evil of myself and from the evil of every moving creature whose forelock you hold. You are the First, nothing is before You; You are the Last,
nothing is after You; You are the HIgh, nothing is above You; You are the Near, nothing is nearer than You. Settle my debt and suffice me against poverty.’ [Muslim]

And like his saying ﷺ to his companions when they raised their voices in dhikr: ‘O People, be easy on yourselves for you are not calling One who is deaf or absent; rather you are calling upon One who is All-Seeing, All-Hearing, and Near. The One you are invoking is closer to one of you than the neck of his riding beast.’ [Bukhari, Muslim]
