The Form of Takbir in the Ten Days of Dhul-Hijjah
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
He says: When the ten days enter, Honorable Shaykh, it is recommended for the Muslim to say takbir and to say, "Allahu Akbar, Allahu Akbar, la ilaha illa Allah." But if he says, "Allahu Akbar" a number of times equal to the number of His creation, the pleasure of His soul, the adornment of His Throne, and the weight of His words, is that permissible?
Answer:
This is good, a great supplication, and a great takbir. However, what is specifically prescribed for the ten days of Dhul-Hijjah and the days of Tashriq is to say, "Allahu Akbar, Allahu Akbar, la ilaha illa Allah, Allahu Akbar, Allahu Akbar, wa lillah al-hamd." This is what has been transmitted, so one should restrict oneself to it and repeat it.
