In the Bible
The Lord has established his throne in heaven, and his kingdom rules over all. Ps 103:19;
In the Quran
"The Most Merciful [who is] established above the Throne."

According to Sunni scholars; there is a chair above the heavens, and a throne above the chair. God sits above the throne, above all creation. The chair is of physical body, created by God and commanded His angels to carry it.
According to Shiite scholars, the throne means the unlimited knowledge of God. And (established above the Throne) means that He has settled on everything, so nothing is closer to Him.
The Quran says: "Those who bear the Throne and those who are around it declare the glory of their Lord along with extolling (His name and) praises. They believe in Him and seek protection for those who believe (saying,) `Our Lord, You embrace each and everything in Your mercy and knowledge, so grant protection to those who repent and follow the way shown by You and protect them from the torment of Hell."

(Those who carry the Throne) are the Prophets, the guardians and scholars whom God has given His knowledge to them.

Instead of preaching your words in the Forums, perhaps you could preach it to your Islamic brothers, the Taliban in Afghanistan??

What does the throne of God look like, according to the Bible?
The Bible says that even “the heaven of the heavens” cannot contain him, so God does not sit on a literal throne. (1King s 8:27) He is described, symbolically, sitting on a throne to represent his royal authority and sovereignty.
In Revelation the apostle John describes the glowing magnificence of God’s presence and the serenity surrounding his throne is symbolic terms.
Revelation 4:3 NW — “And the one seated is, in appearance, like a jasper stone and a precious red-colored stone, and round about the throne there is a rainbow like an emerald in appearance.”

He does not NEED to sit on a throne.

Technically, God is all -but he represents himself within himself (not that there is anything without) in various ways to us -who are literally made from part of what God is.

The throne is a gathering point for an audience with him directly and formally.

God has no physical body or gender and there is absolutely nothing like him in any way whatsoever. I believe that God has no shape, no physical hand, no physical leg, no physical body, no physical face. God has no visible appearance. God does not change in time, nor does he occupy a physical place.
The Quran says: "Eyes comprehend Him not, but He comprehends all eyes. He is the All-Subtle (penetrating everything no matter how small), the All-Aware."

The Mormons – and the leaders of the American "Prosperity Gospel" movement – believe: God is about 6' 2" tall.
Kenneth Copeland, one of the leading preachers of the prosperity gospel, has claimed that God is: very much like you and me … having a body, complete with eyes, and eyelids, ears, nostrils, a mouth, hands and fingers, and feet.

We look at the book that God had written for His people to understand who He is and what His plans are for the future and present and were in the past. That's all we need!
