Allah's attributes: literal or metaphorical?

Nowadays, we live in an era now where those who confirm & affirm Allahs attributes are called 'Wahabis', 'Extremists', 'Literalists' & many other names. Many of them say that Allah is everywhere & many of them say that Allah's attributes such as having a hand & so on are interpreted metaphorical not literal.
Can you please make a list of Qur'an verses & hadiths mentioning that Allah has hands, legs & so on & that Allah is above the throne & not everywhere as people claim & please provide evidences from the The Messanger of Allah ﷺ, the Sahaba, the Tabi'in & the Tabi Al-Tabi' al-Tabi'in such as the 4 Madhabs imams & others affirming that these attributes are literal & that Allah is above the throne & not everywhere as people say. If possible could you please also provide pictures of the references in the books
بارك الله فيكم

He:

  • Interpreted the well-established ḥadīths of “Allah’s Descent” in a figurative sense.
  • Claimed that these refer to the “descent of Allah’s command”.
  • Quoted Ibn Jamāʿah’s statement to attack Shaykh al-Islām Ibn Taymiyyah رحمه الله.

The Ahl al-Sunnah wa’l-Jamāʿah have a clear and firm methodology regarding this issue:
