What is the ruling on one who says "Alhamdulillah" or "Alhamdulillah" instead of "Alhamdu Lillah," and what are the consequences for the speaker and listener of this phrase?
Source: FtawySummary from Ftawy's records · added here Sep 2, 2026
The phrase mentioned is a clear grammatical error. Its speaker intends to say "All praise is due to Allah" (Alhamdulillah) or "All praise is due to Him" (Al-hamdu Lahu). The speaker is not judged as being impious, disobedient, an innovator, or an infidel; rather, the correct way is explained to him.
