Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
May Allah bless you. He asks about this phrase in the opening supplication, "And Exalted is Your Majesty." What is its meaning? May Allah reward you with good.

Answer:
"And Exalted is Your Majesty" means "Exalted is Your greatness and Your wealth, O Allah." The word *jadd* (Majesty) can mean wealth, but here it refers to greatness. So the meaning of "Exalted is Your Majesty" is "Exalted is Your greatness and Your glory, O Allah." It is praise of Allah (Glorified and Exalted is He). Yes. May Allah reward you with good.
