We were told by my father, may Allah grant him mercy, that he said: We were told by Ali bin Ibrahim bin Hashim, from Muhammed bin ‘Isa ibn Ubayd, from Yunus bin Abdul-Rahman, from Hisham bin Abdul-Malik, that he said: I asked Abu Abdillah, peace be upon him, about the meaning of «Glorified be Allah» [1], to which he said: An honoring of Allah.
