Has a recitation been reported in which the name of majesty "Allah" is raised in the verse: "Allah, to Whom belongs all that is in the heavens and all that is in the earth" in Surat Ibrahim, and another recitation in which it is in the genitive case? And who recited with both, and what is the linguistic explanation for each recitation?

Nafi‘ and Ibn ‘Amir recited with the raising (nominative case) of the name of Allah, while the majority recited with its lowering (genitive case), considering it as a badal (substitute) or ‘atf bayan (explicatory apposition). Abu Ja‘far agreed with Nafi‘ and Ibn ‘Amir. Khalaf and Rawh from Ya‘qub agreed with the majority, while Ruways from Ya‘qub agreed with the first group when starting and with the second group when continuing.
