Website of the Office of Grand Ayatullah Saanei :: 2- To Pronounce the beginning “Allahu Akbar” (Takbeerat-ul-ihram)

2- To Pronounce the beginning “Allahu Akbar” (Takbeerat-ul-ihram)

Issue 471: Pronouncing “Allahu Akbar”, the prayer starts, and this is referred to as “Takbeerat-ul-ihram”, which means that many things which were allowable and legal before entering prayer become illegal and forbidden for the person who begins praying, for instance, eating, drinking, laughing and crying. To say this “Allahu Akbar” at the beginning of prayer is obligatory and considered as an element.

Issue 472: To pronounce “Allahu Akbar” at the beginning of every prayer is obligatory and considered as an element, and it is necessary that the letters and the full words are uttered in proper succession and pronounced in correct Arabic.

If one pronounces these words in an incorrect Arabic or pronounces the translation, it will not be valid.

Issue 473: While pronouncing the Takbeerat-ul-ihram, one must stand still and if they intentionally pronounce it when their body is in motion, it will be void, but if they move unintentionally, as a recommended precaution, they should first do something which invalidates the prayer, and then pronounce the Takbeerat-ul-ihram again and a better precaution is to finish that prayer and redo it afterwards.

Issue 474: One must pronounce the Takbeerat-al-ihram, Al-Hamd, the chapter of the Holy Quran, the words of Remembrance, and their personal supplication in a manner that they should at least hear the whisper themselves, and if they cannot hear themselves because of deafness or too much noise, they must pronounce them in such a manner that they would be able to hear if there were no impediment.

Issue 475: When a person doubts whether they have said the “Takbeerat-ul-ihram” or not, they must ignore their doubt if they have started the recitation of Al-Hamd, but if they have not, they must repeat the Takbeer.
