(55) Imām Abu Zakariyyah Yahya bin Ammār as-Sachtiyani [d. 444H] said: „We do not say as the Jahmiyyah say, that He [Allāh] is in every place and that He is mixed with every thing, or that we do not know where He is. Rather He is with His Divine Essence [zhāt] over the Throne…
(56) …and His knowledge encompasses everything. His Knowledge, Hearing, Sight and Power reaches everything, and this is the meaning of: „…and He is with you wherever you are. And Allah, of what you do, is Seeing.“ [57:4], and He is with His Divine Essence over the Throne…

(58) Allamah Ma’mar bin Ahmad bin Zyad al-Asfahāni [d. 418H] said:
„And Allāh, the Mighty and Majestic, is over His Throne, without a „how“ [that we can describe] [Kayf], without likening Him to the creation [Tashbīh]…
(59) and without averting this from its apparent meaning [Ta’wīl]. The Istiwā is known [in the language], the „how“ is not know to us, believing in it is obligatory, rejecting it is disbelief [Kufr]…
(60).. And Allāh is separate and distinct from His creation, and the creation is separate and distinct from Him, there is no Hulūl [Allāh incarnating in the creation], no type of intermixing, for Allāh is One and He is separate and distinct from His creation,…
(61) …He is One and in no need of His creation, His knowledge is everywhere and no place is free from His knowledge.“
