Literalism, in its literal interpretation of certain Qurʾānic expressions—including "establishment (istiwāʾ) upon the Throne"—leads to a form of corporealism (tajsīm) concerning God, which, in a rational and hermeneutical analysis, is incompatible with divine monotheism (tawḥīd) in its various dimensions. Islamic schools typically cite hadith sources to justify their doctrinal foundations. Thus, the question becomes whether these documentary evidences sufficiently support their claims or not. In this regard, a comparative study of the sources of the two major schools (al-farīqayn—Shīʿī and Sunnī), which constitute the primary fronts of the transcendence (tanzīh) and anthropomorphic (tashbīh) positions, yields better results in determining the prevailing orientation of Islamic sources and provides a suitable verification of the extent to which hadiths support the theological claim: Do the hadith sources provide sufficient support for the corporealist (tajsīmī) perspective? Employing library-based research and a comparative-analytical method, this article seeks to verify, through a comparative examination of the indication of the hadiths from these authoritative books concerning "establishment upon the Throne," whether they support transcendence (tanzīh) or corporealism (tajsīm) perspectives. The findings indicate that these hadiths, either directly or indirectly, indicate transcendence (tanzīh) rather than corporealism (tajsīm), and corporealist interpretations in both sources have been subject to opposition.
