Imaam Abdullaah bin Ahmad quotes Abdullaah ibn Mubaarak as saying, ?....I bear witness that You are above Your Throne above the seven heavens. And this is not as the enemies of Allaah say, the heretics.? [?as-Sunnah? of Imaam Abdullaah ibn Ahmad with tahqeeq of al-Qahtaanee]
He also quoted him as saying, ?we know that our Lord is above the seven heavens over the Throne, and we do not say as the Jahmiyyah say that he is here,? pointing with his hand to the earth.
Imaam Maalik said, ?Allaah is Above the heaven, and His knowledge is in every place, nothing is hidden from Him.? [Al-Albaanee said in his notes to ?Mukhtasar? (no. 130), ?reported by Abdullaah in ?as-Sunnah? (pg. 5), and likewise Abu Dawood in ?Masaa?il? (pg. 263)?and it?s sanad is saheeh? and he includes a refutation of the lies that Kawtharee employs to try and discredit this isnaad.]
Abu Haneefah (RH) said, when asked of his opinion of the one who says, ?I do not know whether Allaah is above the heavens or on the earth.? - ?He has disbelieved, because Allaah says, ?The Most Merciful rose above the Throne.? , and His Throne is above His seven heavens.? He was then asked , ?what if he said that Allaah is above His Throne but he does not know whether the Throne is in the heavens or on the earth?? He said, ?He has disbelieved, because He has denied that He is above the heavens, And whosoever denied that He is above the heavens has disbelieved.? [?al-Uluww? of adh- Dhahabee, also ?Sharh Aqueedah at-Tahaawiyyah? of ibn Abee al-Izz al-Hanafee]
