Transliteration:( Subhaana Rabbis samaawaati wal ardi Rabbil Arshi 'ammaa yasifoon )
"Exalted is the Lord of the heavens and the earth, the Lord of supreme authority, free from all those things which they attribute [142] (to Him)."
This verse proclaims the absolute transcendence of Allah, the Sovereign of the heavens and the earth, over all false attributes ascribed to Him by the disbelievers — especially the claim of having offspring.
To say Allah has children is to ascribe a flaw and limitation, whereas He is far above any such human-like quality. Having children implies need, incompleteness, and likeness to creation — all of which contradict the nature of the Perfect, Self-Sufficient Lord.
Thus, believers are instructed to glorify and praise Allah, acknowledging that He alone is worthy of being described with majesty, power, and purity. The verse teaches that respect for Allah means associating with Him only perfect qualities, and rejecting all anthropomorphic notions the polytheists promote.
