Q 67: What did the earlier godly scholars say pertaining to the issue of [Istiwa’] Rising Over (the Throne)?
A--- The earlier godly scholars unanimously agreed upon the following saying: "The [Istiwa’] Rising Over is known, the [Kaif] how lies beyond our mental capabilities, believing therein is a duty, inquiring about it is a heresy, our knowledge of it comes from Allah, the Messenger must convey what he was ordered to, and all we can do is to submit (our will to Allah)."
{We believe in it; the whole of it (clear and unclear verses) are from our Lord}
(Al 'Imran, 7)
is their usual response when encountering verses and Hadiths pertaining to Allah's Names and Attributes.
Allah says:
{We believe in Allah, and bear witness that we are Muslims (i.e. we submit to Allah)}.
(Al' Imran, 52)
