Allaho-Akbar, Allaho-Akbar.
La ila-ha ill-lal-lahu wa-Allahu-Akbar.
Allaho-Akbar, Allaho-Akbar Wa-lilahill hamd.
(Allah is great, Allah is great.
There is no god but Allah. Allah is great.
Allah is great, Allah is great and all praises are for Allah).
The Prophet (PBUH) said, "There is no deed that is better in the sight of Allah or more greatly rewarded than a good deed done in the (first) ten days of Dhul Hijjah:". It was asked, "Not even Jihad for the sake of Allah?" The Prophet (PBUH) replied, "Not even Jihad for the sake of Allah, unless a man goes out himself for Jihad taking his wealth with him and does not come back with anything."
