Hadith 42

(The books) ‘Qurb Al Isnaad’ and ‘Kitab Al Masaail, by their chains, ‘From Ali son of Ja’far-asws, from his brother-asws, he said, ‘I asked him-asws about the Takbeer in the days of Al-Tashreeq, ‘Does one have to raise the hands during it, or not? ’
He-asws said: ‘He should raise his hands by something, or move them’. And I asked him-asws about the Takbeer in the days of Al-Tashreeq, ‘Is it obligatory? ’
He-asws said: ‘It is recommended. If he forgets, there is nothing upon him’. And I asked him-asws about a man entering (the Salat) with the prayer leader, and he had preceded him by one Cycle, so the prayer leader exclaims Takbeer when he performs Salaam, in the days of Al-Tashreeq, ‘How should the man deal with it? ’
He-asws said: ‘He should stand and fulfil what he had missed from the Salat. When he is free, he should exclaim Takbeer’. And I asked him-asws about the man who prays Salat alone in the days of Al-Tashreeq, ‘Is it upon him to exclaim Takbeer? ’
He-asws said: ‘Yes, and if he forgets, there is no problem’. And I asked him-asws about the word during the days of Al-Tashreeq, ‘What is it? ’
He-asws said: ‘You should say, ‘Allah-azwj is Greatest! Allah-azwj is Greatest! There is no god except Allah-azwj and Allah-azwj is Greatest! Allah-azwj is Greatest and for Allah-azwj is the Praise! Allah‑azwj is Greatest upon what He-azwj has Guided us! Allah-azwj is Greatest upon what He-azwj has Graced us from beasts, the cattle! ’’
And I asked him-asws about the women, ‘Is the Takbeer upon them in the days of Al-Tashreeq? ’
He-asws said: ‘Yes, and he should not be loud with it’’. [51]
