Ibn e Arabi (ra) says do not say Allah is here and there because that is disrespectful to The Almighty Rabb.
Instead, say Allah is with us everywhere. This is more appropriate. Allah is Rafi ud Darajaat and Rafi us Samawat. He is above all. And creator of everything. His might, His Power and His Bulundi is beyond our comprehension and understanding. Allahu Akbar. Subhanallhul azeem.
Beloved Rasoolallah (s) said, I am with my Rabb and He feeds me.
We may also say Allah is with us but we should never say He is here.
In the Qur'an it says Allah is with the Sabireen. And with the Mutaqeen.
If an Arif or a Salik is blessed with mushahida and Marifat, then they must keep quiet and not tell anyone these secrets. Observe adab strictly like you do in prayers. And never tell anyone. It is not the protocol.
Beloved Rasoolallah (s) said, keep the secret a secret that is the best. Or you will be left behind.
Data Sab (ra) said, when I knew not, I would talk. Now that I know, I am quiet.
When a secret is disclosed, one must keep it to themselves and observe silence and strict adab. If you do, you will be blessed.
The one who is given this blessing is sadatmand. And every saeed has Allah's pleasure.
Anyone who gives pain to Ahl ul Inaya, pain to Sahaba e Ikram, pain to Awliyah Allah, pain to Wali Allah, pain to Ahl ul Bayt - these people with burn in Hell for it.
The ignorant people did not realise that saadat cannot be achieved without the love and muaddat of the Ahl ul Bayt.
Beloved Rasoolallah (s) said I am leaving 2 things for you, the Quran and my Ahl ul Bayt. Hold on to them tightly and nothing will ever harm you and you will never go astray from the right path.
There are certain people who gave pain to Ahlullah, because of this in the Hereafter they will burn in Hell.
The burning in Hell will be the burning of all the negative characteristics. Once they are properly burned, the original pure ruh that Allah created is only left behind. If you have read the kalma, you will eventually be forgiven and be allowed to enter Jannah.
Then there are the other people who were the seekers. They yearned for Marifat. They continuously strived to defeat their weaknesses. They did mujahida. Then got blessed with Mushahida. With kashf. These people will be given a higher status than regular inmates of Jannah. This is because their real reward is Deedar e Jalwa e Haqqani. Their faces will be shining and glowing. They will only be well pleased and attentive towards their Rabb. This will be a constant naimat. In their lives on earth they dedicated themselves for this goal only. For deedar of Rabb taala. And now they will enjoy every second the deedar and tajaliyat of different Ism o Siffaat.
Allahu Akbar.
