The answer

There is no objection to saying: "Allah is Kabeer" (Allah is Great/Grand); because it is an exaltation of Allah and describes Him with what befits Him, and "Al-Kabeer" is one of Allah's Most Beautiful Names. Its meaning is: The One Who is absolutely great in everything, and it has been mentioned in the Quran. As for the phrase: "Allah yarujuk" (May Allah shake you), the meaning of "ar-rajj" is vigorous shaking and moving.
