If God can be equated with 'light', this is similar to Allahu Akbar except that the purpose is spiritual, not martial.

Muhammed Salla allahu 'alaihi wa sallam is the seal of prophethood, but this does not mean he was the last "sent one" (rasool, mursil) of Allah

So this means you are in a certain situation, and you think about Allah and then think or say Allahu Akbar (then what you imagine or think)....Allahu Akbar(then that thought or imagination you had with the first takbeer) Allahu Akbar....Allahu Akbar.....Allahu Akbar.
