So what is the benefit of knowing how great the throne is and how far away it is and how great the heavens are and things of that sort?

Imam Ahmed Rahim Allah, He was asked this question, how far is the Aarush of Allah from us?

And so there are many duas that distant from you and you can't call upon him.

And so there are many duas that indicate that we

supplicate to Allah Subhano It's ala on the basis of the

greatness of the throne and on the basis of the

greatness of the Lord of the throne.

And this is something that's beautiful about the Arabic language

and also the Quran.

Imam in Kathi Rahimhahimhala, he said if you look at the Aya,

the al-Aya, the al-Shil Majit, which means the possessor of the great throne, the al-Sul-Majid.

The al-Sil-Majid d'i would mean that the throne itself is great, so it would translate into

the possessor of the mighty throne.

The al-Shil-Majidu would mean the possessor of the throne, the almighty.

And he said both meanings are correct.

And so we find some supplications that indicate to us the greatness of the throne and the bearers of the throne and then some supplications we call upon the Lord of the throne.
