What is the Takbir (Allahu Akbar) Recited During Sacrifice and What is its Meaning?The act of sacrifice is one of the most beautiful expressions of closeness to and submission to Allah. Mentioning the name of Allah (Tasmiyyah) during the sacrifice is a commandment of the Holy Quran and a matter of great importance to Islamic scholars. Although there are some jurisprudential details according to different schools of thought, saying "Bismillahi Allahu Akbar" during the sacrifice is one of the fundamental requirements of Islamic procedure.
Takbir recited during sacrificeBefore or during the sacrifice, Muslims recite the following takbir:
ArabicGod bless you, God bless you اللّٰهُ، وَاللّٰهُ أَكْبَرُ، اللّٰهُ أَكْبَرُ، وَلِلّٰهِ Alhamdulillah
PronunciationAllahu Akbar, Allahu Akbar. La ilaha illallahu wallahu Akbar. Allahu Akbar wa lillahi al-hamd.
Turkish MeaningAllah is the greatest, Allah is the greatest. There is no god but Allah. Allah is the greatest. Allah is the greatest. All praise belongs to Allah.
This takbir (declaration of God's greatness) is an important dhikr (remembrance of God) expressing that a Muslim worships solely for the pleasure of Allah.

Arabicبِسْمِ اللّٰهِ، اللّٰهُ أَكْبَرُ
