Di negara Jancukers. Allahu Akbar nilainya tinggi, yaitu untuk mengusir penjajah Belanda dulu dan untuk mengusir Jepang. Tidak seperti di negara tetangga, Allahu Akbar dipakai untuk melawan orang makan di warung Tegal.

Wenn ich rechne und sehe ein winziges Insekt das auf meine Papier geflogen ist dann fühle ich etwas wie Allah ist Gross (Allahu Akbar) und wir sind armseliges Tröpfe mit unseren ganzen Wissenschaften Herrlichkeit
Albert Einstein
God is most great! Allahu akbar! God is most great!” and sending the most faithful grimly shuffling through the dusky, unlit streets to salat al-‘isha, the evening prayer. The Sabbath

Dave Rich, an official of the Community Security Trust, a Jewish organization that monitors anti-Semitism in the United Kingdom, wrote recently: “Those British Muslims who verbally abuse British Jews on the street are more likely to shout ‘Heil Hitler’ than ‘Allahu akbar’ when they do so. This is despite the fact that their parents and grandparents were probably chased through the very same streets by gangs of neo-Nazi skinheads shouting similar slogans.

You say, you don't have any prejudice! Let's put that to test, shall we! Read the following phrases, pausing a few seconds after each. Hallelujah! ¡Viva la libertad! Shabbat Shalom! Allahu Akbar! Black Lives Matter! We're Here, We're Queer! My body, my decision! Now bring your faculty of reason into action, and think, which of the terms induced a negative emotional response in your mind? It's nothing out of the ordinary, it's just common animal nature. How your brain got conditioned to react in such a way that's a different matter. The main thing is, your brain just reacted exactly like the brain of pavlov's dog every time it heard the bell. The only difference is that, a dog doesn't have further brain capacity to question such conditioning, but a human does.

We Palestinian Christians say Allahu Akbar
Palestinian Orthodox Christian bishop in the Holy Land
Sinta She succumbed to typhoid at twenty-six, Sinta, my part-time Photoshopper, fluent in HTML, clubbing and 'just having fun'. Her Koran thumping Sumatran parents believe their kafir daughter's gone to Jahannam, that fiery place of punishment, for rashly fucking before marriage; the red spots that erupted like lava on her chest and abdomen, to be taken as cautionary signs. Her father, Abdullah, a customs officer, said at her funeral, when they laid Sinta's near skeletal body into the grave, "Our daughter chose *Jahannam over Jannah, and now she pays the duty. Allahu Akbar."*

a cry of “Allahu Akbar” went out as they came upon Abdul Khader’s lifeless body. The Arab victory suddenly turned into a tragedy; men gathered around the body, some kissed his dead face, others banged their heads with rifle butts in remorse. The men placed him on a stretcher and carried him down the hillside back to East Jerusalem. As they did, the Jews took back Kastel.
Eric Gartman (Return to Zion: The History of Modern Israel)
Alhamdulillah can be seen in the phenomenon of the arc of ascent and descent, how everything returns to the source, and how boundless gratitude from the source flows into all of creation. Subhanallah offers us the image of swimming around the central still point in spiraling circles of light. All beings and all realms of being constantly circumambulate and interpenetrate that heart center. Allahu Akbar appears to be even greater than the other two because it leads our process to go beyond concepts. The mind falls away and is led into essence. There is not a trace left of the conceptual.

In 2013 the then UK Prime Minister David Cameron visited Tripoli and told the Libyan people that the lesson learned in Afghanistan and Iraq was: ‘helping other counties, intervening in other countries, is not simply about military intervention.’ To cries of ‘Allahu Akbar’ he pledged: ‘In building a new Libya you will have no greater friend than the United Kingdom. We will stand with you every step of the way.’ But then, as the country plunged into chaos, with numerous militia battling for control, the Europeans walked away, leaving a broken state, a desperate people and a new route opening up for illegal immigration into the continent.

Thus, sometime in late April, Christian sailors found seventy warships descending on them to cries of “Allahu Akbar.”112 Fierce fighting followed, and ships foundered. When forty half-drowned Christian sailors managed to swim to shore, “by the Sultan’s orders these were fixed by the fundament [anus] upon sharp stakes, which pierced them to the top of their heads,” wrote an eyewitness.* “The stakes were planted, and they were left to die in full view of the guards on the walls.

Students in many schools have had to endure similar indoctrination attempts. In 2015, students at Spring Hill Middle School in Tennessee were required to write, “There is no god but Allah; and Muhammed is his prophet,” which is a statement used by those who convert into Islam.15 Students in some schools have been told to memorize parts of the Qur’an, shout, “Allahu Akbar!,” and to fast over lunch in honor of Ramadan.

All those boys and about ten more came up on them pointing aerosol cans—it turned out to be hornet spray—and released it in streams on their faces. The soldiers started scampering back when all these arrows—like American Indian arrows!—rained down on them. Praise God! Praise God! God bless our warriors! God bless the resistance. God protect them. Allahu akbar.
Susan Abulhawa (Against the Loveless World)
In 2008 I visited Israel and spent time in Muslim towns and villages meeting clerics, politicians, and young Muslim men wearing distinctly Israel Defense Forces trousers. At every meeting I asked a blunt question: “As a Muslim, do you feel you live in an apartheid state?” Invariably, the answer was a firm no. As one man in his twenties, in the northern town of Shibli (where a sign reading “Allahu Akbar” graces the entrance), told me, “Wallah al azeem” – as God is my witness – “I will never wish to trade my Israeli citizenship for any of those wretched Arab countries who do not know how to treat their own citizens with dignity.” I asked the same question of Imam Mohammad Odeh outside his spectacular mosque north of Haifa. He grinned before admitting, “We Muslims have difficulties, there is no doubt, and we feel Israel should end the occupation of the West Bank, but to say we Muslims are living in an apartheid state is a lie.” After a tour of the mosque, where we prayed, he invited me to his home. What followed was a long, heartfelt story of a Palestinian living as an Israeli citizen, the imam of a mosque and leader of a community of two thousand. Hurt was written on his face, but his complaints were aimed not at Israel but towards the intellectual bankruptcy of the men who lead the Palestinians. I asked him if he truly, in his heart, felt Israeli, and without hesitating he said, “Yes.

4.236: Narrated Jabir bin `Abdullah: Whenever we went up a place we would say, "Allahu--Akbar (i.e. Allah is Greater)", and whenever we went down a place we would say, "Subhan Allah.
محمد بن إسماعيل البخاري (Complete Sahih Bukhari.English Translation Complete 9 Volumes)
Centuries have passed since the wars of religion ceased in Europe, and since men stopped dying in large numbers because of arcane theological disputes. Hence, perhaps, the incredulity and denial with which Westerners have greeted news of the theology and practices of the Islamic State. Many refuse to believe that this group is as devout as it claims to be, or as backward-looking or apocalyptic as its actions and statements suggest. "Their skepticism is comprehensible. In the past, Westerners who accused Muslims of blindly following ancient scriptures came to deserved grief from academics—notably the late Edward Said—who pointed out that calling Muslims 'ancient' was usually just another way to denigrate them. Look instead, these scholars urged, to the conditions in which these ideologies arose—the bad governance, the shifting social mores, the humiliation of living in lands valued only for their oil. "Without acknowledgment of these factors, no explanation of the rise of the Islamic State could be complete. But focusing on them to the exclusion of ideology reflects another kind of Western bias: that if religious ideology doesn’t matter much in Washington or Berlin, surely it must be equally irrelevant in Raqqa or Mosul. When a masked executioner says Allahu akbar while beheading an apostate, sometimes he’s doing so for religious reasons.

Mostafa always said that Islam was about peace. But if that’s true, why were two Muslim countries fighting each other? Iranians said “Allahu Akbar” and Iraqis said it too. What was the difference between this Allah and that Allah?
Zahed Haftlang (I, Who Did Not Die)
It is more important now than ever to challenge and criticize the doctrine of Islam. And it is more important now than ever to protect and defend the rights of Muslims. Both of these must go together. Doing the first without the second would be grossly unfair to millions of good Muslim people who are not only the most frequent victims of Islamic terrorism, but also maligned due to the actions of violent jihadists who actually take their faith and holy book seriously. And doing the second without the first would be grossly unfair to the innumerable victims of “Allahu Akbar”–yelling militants who chop off heads, take sex slaves, and accurately quote Quranic verses supporting their actions. The only rational position between Islamic apologism and anti-Muslim bigotry is one espousing secular and liberal values. This is the only position that allows both the right to criticize bad ideas and the right to believe in them—both of which must be protected in order to set the stage for meaningful dialogue.
