Allah Hu Akbar Arabic Text: الله أكبر | Allah Hu Akbar Transliteration: Allah Hu Akbar | Allah Hu Akbar Tasbih Dua English Translation: Allah is the Greatest

Dhikr or Tasbih recitation is a powerful way of remembering and worshipping Allah (سُبْحَانَهُ وَتَعَالَى) that can be managed even when you're busy or multitasking. Common dhikrs include reciting the magnificent names of Allah (سُبْحَانَهُ وَتَعَالَى) or reciting words that praise Him or His greatness. For instance, Allah hu Akbar is a powerful dhikr to recite. 

 

Allah Hu Akbar is a praise that meets every believer’s lips when starting the five daily prayers. This Takbir is the first thing Muslims hear when they enter this world and the last thing they will hear when they die. When Muslims recite Allah hu Akbar, they acknowledge the greatness of Allah (سُبْحَانَهُ وَتَعَالَى) and how He is bigger and greater than anything imaginable and unimaginable in this world and beyond.

Every Muslim must recite the takbir after offering fardh (compulsory) salah or prayer.

[Bulugh al-Maram, Book 2, Hadith 2]


Reciting Allah Hu Akbar 34 times before sleeping, along with Allhumdulillah and Subhan Allah. 

Ali (رَضِيَ ٱللَّٰهُ عَنْهُ) reports the Prophet (ﷺ) saying: ‘’When you go to your beds, say: 'Allahu Akbar (i.e. Allah is Greater)' for 34 times, and 'Al hamdu Li llah (i.e. all the praises are for Allah)' for 33 times, and Subhan Allah (i.e. Glorified be Allah) for 33 times’’ – [Sahih al-Bukhari 3113]

Allah Remembers those Who Remember Him

The Prophet (ﷺ) said: "Allah says: 'I am just as My slave thinks I am, (i.e. I can do for him what he thinks I can do for him) and I am with him if He remembers Me. If he remembers Me in himself, I too, remember him in Myself; and if he remembers Me in a group of people, I remember him in a group that is better than they; and if he comes one span nearer to Me, I go one cubit nearer to him; and if he comes one cubit nearer to Me, I go a distance of two outstretched arms nearer to him; and if he comes to Me walking, I go to him running.' " – [Sahih al- Bukhari 7405]
