Muwatta Malik #168
Prayer
The Arabic includes the chain of narration (sanad) and the collector's commentary; the English translation shows the Prophet's words only.
وَحَدَّثَنِي عَنْ مَالِكٍ، عَنْ أَبِي نُعَيْمٍ، وَهْبِ بْنِ كَيْسَانَ عَنْ جَابِرِ بْنِ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ، أَنَّهُ كَانَ يُعَلِّمُهُمُ التَّكْبِيرَ فِي الصَّلاَةِ . قَالَ فَكَانَ يَأْمُرُنَا أَنْ نُكَبِّرَ كُلَّمَا خَفَضْنَا وَرَفَعْنَا .
Yahya related to me from Malik from Abu Nuaym Wahb ibn Kaysan
that Jabir ibn Abdullah used to teach them the takbir in the prayer.
Abu Nuaym said, "He used to tell us to say 'Allah is greater' whenever
we lowered or raised ourselves."
