Thank you very much for all your posts dear brothers and sisters, I'm still not very sure which school of theology I belong to...Will someone help me out?

May Allah subhanawata'ala forgive me, but in my belief and the way I was taught, Allah is not in a particular direction, nor does He literally have face or hands (because that would be likening Him to His creations), them being metaphorical as symbols of His Power, His Strength, His Beauty and His Knowledge that encompasses everything in existence. This was what I was taught as a child whenever I got confused as to where Allah subhana wa ta'ala the Creator was and what He looked like (may Allah forgive me, I was a curious child). I was also taught that in Jannah we will be able to see Allah Almighty in a spiritual sense, and see Him through our spiritual eyes and not with our mortal/physical eyes. Where does this fall under, Ashari or Maturidi?
