Question: what is takbeer in namaz?
Answer: Takbeer refers to when “Allah-Hu- Akbar” is said to begin the prayer and one raises the hands to the ears, it is an Arabic word. During normal prayers, 'takbeer' is said only once, but for the Eid prayer, you have to say 'takbeer' 12 times in two rak'ahs (this is the procedure followed in the UAE).
