In this supplication (O Allah, You are Peace and from You comes peace)
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The questioner : In this supplication "O Allah, You are Peace and from You comes peace, Blessed and Exalted are You, O Possessor of Majesty and Honor", what is the ruling on the word "Exalted" in this supplication?
The Shaykh : It is better not to say it in this place, because the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) did not say it in this place, meaning when he finished the prayer. Rather, he would say "O Allah, You are Peace and from You comes peace, Blessed are You, O Possessor of Majesty and Honor". As for in other places, there is no harm in saying "Blessed and Exalted are You, our Lord" and the like, because there is no prohibition reported regarding combining blessing and exaltation, nor does it imply a defective meaning. However, the dhikr (remembrance of Allah) reported from the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) in a specific form is best for a person to adhere to, without adding to it or subtracting from it. But if he adds to it after completing it, after performing it in full, in a place where there is no prohibition, there is no harm. Yes.
