And the Iqdmah is seventeen phrases: (Allah is the Most Great, Allah is the Most Great, Allah is th Most Great, Allah is the Most Great; I bear witness that none has the right to be worshiped but Allah, I bear witness that none has the right to be worshiped but Allah; I bear witness that Muhammad is the Messenger of Allah, I bear witness that Muhammad is the Messenger of Allah; Come to the prayer, come to the prayer; Come to prosperity, come to the prosperity; the prayer is about to begin, the prayer is about to begin; Allah is the Most Great, Allah is the Most Great; none has the right to be worshiped but Allah).” (Sahih)
