Praise be to Allah.
The word ta’aala is not narrated in the hadeeth. As this is the case, the Muslim should not say it, and he should limit himself to what was narrated in the Sunnah, which is to say “Al-salamu ‘alaykum wa rahmat-Allah wa barakaatuhu (Peace be upon you, and the mercy of Allah and His blessings).” The word ta’aala is not part of the phrase that was narrated, and if a person keeps saying it then it becomes a habit or a “sunnah”, but it was not narrated from the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him).
But if a person does it sometimes, then there is nothing wrong with that.
