The answer

The takbir (Allahu Akbar - God is Greatest) for movement is prescribed for the ma'mum (follower) and others. Its place is between the beginning of the movement to the rukn (pillar/integral part of prayer) and its completion, such that the takbir encompasses the entire rukn. The takbirs for movement are sunnah (recommended) according to the majority of scholars, and wajib (obligatory) according to the Hanbalis. If the ma'mum omits them, the imam (prayer leader) bears it on their behalf.
