Sayyiduna Abdullah bin Abbas (may Allah be pleased with them both) used to recite this verse: “I know that Allah is over all things competent” and would say: He (i.e., the person) was not superior to Ibrahim (peace be upon him); Allah the Exalted said: “I know that Allah is over all things competent.”
