921 - وَ سَأَلَ رَجُلٌ أَمِيرَ اَلْمُؤْمِنِينَ عَلَيْهِ اَلسَّلاَمُ فَقَالَ لَهُ: يَا اِبْنَ عَمِّ خَيْرِ خَلْقِ اَللَّهِ تَعَالَى مَا مَعْنَى رَفْعِ يَدَيْكَ فِي اَلتَّكْبِيرَةِ اَلْأُولَى فَقَالَ عَلَيْهِ اَلسَّلاَمُ «مَعْنَاهُ اَللَّهُ أَكْبَرُ اَلْوَاحِدُ اَلْأَحَدُ اَلَّذِي «لَيْسَ كَمِثْلِهِ شَيْءٌ» لاَ يُلْمَسُ بِالْأَخْمَاسِ وَ لاَ يُدْرَكُ بِالْحَوَاسِّ.
Hadith.921 - A man asked The Commander of the Faithful Imam Ali ibn Abi Talib 
saying:
"O’ son of the cousin of the best of Allah’s (swt) creation, what is the meaning of raising your hands in the first Takbir (opening glorification of Allah (swt))?"
He replied: "It signifies that Allah (swt) is the Greatest, the One, the Unique, Who 'there is nothing like unto Him.' He cannot be perceived by the senses nor touched by the limbs."
