Meaning — English
Al-Ali is absolutely transcendent — above all things in His essence, attributes, power, and authority. Nothing is above Him. This transcendence is not spatial but ontological — He is of a different order of reality than anything created.
معنی — اردو
العلی ذات، صفات، قدرت اور اختیار میں سب سے بلند ہے — کوئی اس سے اوپر نہیں۔
In Daily Life
Prostrating to Al-Ali in Sujood — the most exalted being, and you with your forehead on the ground — is the most honest physical expression of the Creator-creation relationship.
