Q: What is the meaning of our saying in the opening supplication of the prayer: (And Exalted is Your Majesty)?

A: The meaning of that is: Exalted is Your grandeur and Your greatness, as He, Glorified and Exalted is He, said in Surat al-Jinn, regarding the jinn that they said:
And [it teaches] that exalted is the nobleness of our Lord; He has not taken a wife or a sonوَأَنَّهُ تَعَالَى جَدُّ رَبِّنَا مَا اتَّخَذَ صَاحِبَةً وَلَا وَلَدًا
