حَدَّثَنَا عَلِيُّ بْنُ مُحَمَّدٍ، حَدَّثَنَا يَحْيَى بْنُ آدَمَ، حَدَّثَنَا إِسْرَائِيلُ، عَنْ أَبِي إِسْحَاقَ، عَنْ عَبْدِ الْجَبَّارِ بْنِ وَائِلٍ، عَنْ أَبِيهِ، قَالَ صَلَّيْتُ مَعَ النَّبِيِّ ـ صلى الله عليه وسلم ـ فَقَالَ رَجُلٌ الْحَمْدُ لِلَّهِ حَمْدًا كَثِيرًا طَيِّبًا مُبَارَكًا فِيهِ . فَلَمَّا صَلَّى النَّبِيُّ ـ صلى الله عليه وسلم ـ قَالَ " مَنْ ذَا الَّذِي قَالَ هَذَا " . قَالَ الرَّجُلُ أَنَا وَمَا أَرَدْتُ إِلاَّ الْخَيْرَ . فَقَالَ " لَقَدْ فُتِحَتْ لَهَا أَبْوَابُ السَّمَاءِ فَمَا نَهْنَهَهَا شَىْءٌ دُونَ الْعَرْشِ " .

It was narrated from ‘Abd al-Jabbar ibn Wa’il, from his father, who said: I prayed with the Prophet ﷺ, and a man said, ‘Praise belongs to Allah—abundant, pure, blessed praise.’ When the Prophet ﷺ had finished praying, he asked, ‘Who said that?’ The man replied, ‘I did; I intended nothing but good.’ He said, ‘The gates of heaven were opened for it, and nothing held it back before it reached the Throne.’

The closing phrase describes the praise ascending without anything stopping it before the Throne.
