ما معنى كلمة "الله أكبر"؟
The meaning of "Allahu Akbar" is that Allah is greater, more glorious, higher, and mightier than everything else, and that He is greater than what can be conceived by the mind or imagined by the fancy. This phrase consists of the majestic name "Allah," which is a proper noun for the Divine Essence whose existence is necessary, and the word "Akbar" in the superlative form, meaning more glorious and mightier. "Allahu Akbar" is the phrase with which the state of ihram for prayer is entered according to the majority of scholars, based on the Prophet's (peace be upon him) saying: "The key to prayer is purification, its consecration is the takbir, and its desacralization is the taslim."
