Muslims getting cooked by Muslims
Salaam,
For any Muslims confused regarding this post, clarification is necessary:
The belief that the prophet Muhammad ﷺ will sit “at the right hand of God with him on his throne” is foreign to Islam, and has nothing to do with the Messenger or Sahabah.
1. Muslims do not believe, in any capacity, that Allah تعالى is sitting. This belief is Kufr according the scholars who have preserved this religion. Islam does not teach this, anywhere.
2. Muslims do not believe, in any capacity, that Allah تعالى has a size, such that the Throne is greater in size than He, leaving space for a person. Once again, this belief is heresy.
3. Not a single letter of the first two images provided in the quoted tweet, serves as evidence for this Kufri belief. The best is “upon the chair of the lord,” which has no entailment that Allah تعالى is sitting, and no entailment they will sit ‘together’.
4. Other fabricated narrations, although seeming more explicit, are not allowed to be used in Aqeedah.
Islam is not a religion where every individual’s opinion holds weight, like Christianity is.
As the Salaf have stated:
الإسناد من الدين، ولولا الإسناد لقال من شاء ما شاء
“Isnaad is from the religion, and if not for Isnaad, anyone would be able to say anything.”
Before you take your Aqeedah from someone, find out who their teachers are, see if any qualified scholar around the world would vouch for their beliefs, see if they have any form of Isnaad — or if they are just saying whatever they want to say based on whatever limited understanding their intellect possesses.
I sincerely advise all people involved in da’wah, to stay in the lane they’re proficient in. The Bible you may be an expert in, and it is a good thing. But depths of Aqeedah is something you will be asked about on the day of judgement, with what credentials did you speak in the name of the messenger ﷺ? And if you have none, may Allah forgive you. Speak where you have the credentials to, stay silent where you don’t. This is only difficult to a person with the spiritual disease of arrogance, which is another issue of its own issue that needs heavy work.
To all other Muslims:
Just because someone can logically conceive that a Trinitarian belief is stupid, can speak some Arabic, and is fluent in an argument, it does not make them authoritative in the Islamic sciences. You, too, will be accountable for your actions and who you listened to will be asked about. Pick the person you trust with your religion, wisely, and stay away from listening to individuals with zero credentials Islamically, and who contradict the consensus of the scholars.
May Allah forgive and have mercy on us,
Salaam
