Article 4 : The descent of Allah – Shaykh Uthaymin
Question :
The hadith about the descent of our Lord to the heaven of the dunia (this world) during the last third of the night ; and this every night. However, the last third of the night is different from one town to another and from one country to another, even if in every day we have these three durations. So does this means the He is always in the lowest heaven ?
Answer by shaykh Uthaymin :
We think Ô my brother that we will not move from our position which forbids us to talk about / enter in such things.
If you are in a country and during the last third of the night then have belief / be certain that Allâh descends to the lowest — of the dunia. And if you are in another country and not during the time (last third of the night), then there is no descent (of our Lord).
