Praise be to Allah, Who glorified us with Islam, honored us with the Islamic belief and sent Muhammad as a mercy to us. I testify that Allah exists without a place; and peace be upon the best human, our Master Muhammad. Thereafter, this book is 'at-Tabsir fid-Din wa Tamyeez al-Firqah an-Najiyyah ^anil-Firaq al-Halikeen'. It was written by the out spoken preacher great Imam and scholar - Abi Muthaffar al-Isfarayini who died in the hijri year 471 which means 958 years ago. This book was printed by 'Dar al-Kutub al-^ilmiyyah, Second Edition. On page 148, when clarifying the creed of Ahlus-Sunna wal Jama^ah, the author said: "...and to know it is not permissible to relate to Allah the 'shape', the 'Amount' nor the 'Place'; because it is impossible to say 'how is He' to the One that Has no resemblances. To the One Who is not a number, it is impossible to say 'how many of him?' to the One Who Has no beginning, one cannot say 'from what was he? And to the One who exists without a place, one cannot ask 'where was he?". We mentioned before, from the Qur'an, what proves clearing Allah from resembling the creations, clearing Allah from existence in a place or in a direction, clearing Allah from having a beginning or an origin. The clearest of clarifications came from the honorable Caliph Imam Aliyy when he was asked 'where is Allah?" He answered: "it must not be said 'where' to the One Who created the place. Then he was asked 'how is Allah?', so he answered: "it must not be said 'how' to the One Who created the shapes and forms."This is the end of the quote wal 7amdulillahi rabbil ^aalameen.
