The Proximity of Allah on the Day of Arafah

Question
Does the meaning of Allah's proximity to people on the Day of Arafah refer to the closeness of mercy rather than physical distance?
Answer
I say, and with God's help: There is no doubt that it is a proximity of mercy and knowledge, not a proximity of distance; because the latter is disbelief in God Almighty, as it is a form of anthropomorphism, and God knows best.
