The manner of doing the Takbeer
The manner of doing Takbeer hasn’t been specifically narrated from the Prophet [May the Peace and Blessings of Allaah be upon him] however the manner of doing the Takbeer has been narrated from the Companions [May Allaah be Pleased with them all] in various different ways:
1) The first way one can do the Takbeer is to say:
Allaahu Akbar, Allaahu Akbar, Allaahu Akbar Kabeeraa
It was narrated by Bayhaqee in Kubraa [3/316] and in Fadaa’il al-A’maal [p.227] that Salmaan al-Farseee [May Allaah be Pleased with him] would say:
Allaahu Akbar, Allaahu Akbar, Allaahu Akbar Kabeeraa
The chain of narration for this is authentic as was stated by Ibn Hajar in Fath al-Baari [2/462]
2) The second way one can do the Takbeer is to say:
Allaahu Akbar, Allaahu Akbar, Laa illaha ill-Allaah, wa Allaahu Akbar, Allaahu Akbar, Wa lil Allaah hil Hamd
It was narrated by Ibn Abee Shaybah in his Musannif [5633] that Ibn Mas’ood [May Allaah be Pleased with him] would say:
Allaahu Akbar, Allaahu Akbar, Laa illaha ill-Allaah, wa Allaahu Akbar, Allaahu Akbar, Wa lil Allaah hil Hamd
The chain is authentic
3) The third way one can do the Takbeer is to say:
Allaahu Akbar Kabeera, Allaahu Akbar Kabeera, Allaahu Akbar wa Ajal, Allaahu Akbar Wa lil Allaah hil Hamd
As was narrated by Ibn Abee Shaybah in his Musannif [5646] that Ibn ‘Abbaas [May Allaah be Pleased with him] would do.
The chain is authentic
This is what has been narrated from the Companions [May Allaah be Pleased with them all] about this issue.
So it is incumbent on the person to increase in doing Takbeer. What is best for the person to do is to do all of the Takbeer above as it has been authentically attributed to the companions and it is most likely that they learned and took this from the Prophet [May the Peace and Blessings of Allaah be upon him]
