What is Takbir?

copied from:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Takbir

The Takbir or Tekbir is the Arabic name for the phrase Allahu Akbar.

Takbar is only the name of the expression; the phrase itself is "Allahu Akbar".

This phrase is recited by Muslims in many different situations.

For example, when they are very happy, to express approval,
to praise a speaker, as a battle cry, and during times of extreme stress.

In the Islamic world, instead of applause, often someone will shout takbir and the crowd will respond "Allahu Akbar" in chorus.
