Takbirut Tashreeq

Takbirut Tashreeq is the recitation of Allahu Akbar Allahu Akbar, Laa Ilaaha Illallaahu Wallaahu Akbar, Allaahu Akbar Wa Lillaahil Hamd

Time

Takbirut Tashreeq stretches over five days, from Fajr of 9 Dhu al-Hijjah until after Asr of 13 Dhu al-Hijjah

Origin

Ibrahim was ordered by Allah to sacrifice his son Isma'il. When Ibrahim began moving the knife on Isma'il, the angels were sent with a ram (kabsh?) from Jannah. The angels exclaimed: Allahu Akbar Allahu Akbar (Allah is the Greatest, Allah is the Greatest). Ibrahim heard the voice of the angels and said: "La Ilaha Illallahu Wallahu Akbar" (There is none worthy of worship besides Allah and Allah is the Greatest).

Isma'il heard this conversation and realized that Allah had relieved him from this great trial and so he said: "Allahu Akbar Wa Lillahil Hamd" (Allah is the Greatest and to Allah belongs all praise).
