Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
He says: Honorable Shaykh, may Allah expand your path, what is the ruling on adding to the takbir mentioned, whose description is to say: "Allah is the Greatest, Allah is the Greatest, there is no god but Allah, Allah is the Greatest, Allah is the Greatest, and to Allah belongs all praise," by saying: "Allah is the Greatest, the Magnificent, and praise be to Allah in the morning and evening, and may Allah send blessings and peace upon our Prophet Muhammad"? Is this prescribed?
Answer:
The specific one is what is to be even in number, whereas for the absolute one, there is no harm in using this even-numbered formula, and also in saying: "Allah, your Lord, is the Magnificent and the Praiseworthy." The absolute one is done with that, but the specific one is restricted to what has been transmitted.
