Ibn Al-Qayyim (rahimahullaah)
said in his book As-Salaat wa Hukm Taarikihaa:
And when he (the servant reciting Surat Al-Faatihah in
prayer) says: All praise is due to Allah the Rabb of all the
Worlds, he pauses for a short while waiting for the response of his Lord: ‘My
servant has praised Me.’ Then when he says: The Most Gracious the Most Merciful
he waits for the response: ‘My servant has extolled Me’ and when he says:
Master of the Day of Judgment, he waits for the response: ‘My servant has
glorified Me.’
It is the delight of his heart, the pleasure of his eye and the
joy of his soul that his Lord says about him: ‘My servant’ three times. By Allah! If the fumes of desire and the
darkness of the soul were not upon the hearts, they would have flown out of happiness and joy that their Lord,
Maker and Deity says: “My servant has praised Me, My servant has extolled Me
and My servant has glorified Me.”
