Subḥāna-llāh, wa-l-ḥamdu li-llāh, wa lā ilāha illa-llāh, wa-llāhu akbar.

Context

It is Sunnah to say additional takbīrāt in the ṣalāh of ‘Īd. In the first rak‘ah one should do seven takbīrāt besides the opening takbīr and five takbīrāt—besides the takbīr of rising from rukū‘—in the second. The takbīr in the first rak‘ah should be done after the opening du‘ā’ and before seeking protection. In the second it should be done before seeking protection. It is mustaḥabb to say between the takbīrāt: Glory be to Allah, all praise is due to Allah and there is no god but Allah and Allah is greater. That is the opinion of the majority of our [Shāfi‘ī] colleagues.
