By raising their hands to the sky, Muslims are expressing their submission to God and His greatness. Furthermore, reciting "Allahu Akbar" is a reminder of God's power and authority over all things. It also serves as an affirmation that He alone should be worshipped. Thus, this hadith teaches us to always remember God's greatness in our daily lives through salat or ritual prayers.
