NY Daily News: “Extremists distort powerful meaning of ‘Allahu Akbar’ in acts of terrorism”

22

This is madness. A mad obsession. The NY Times has now run two pro-Allahu akbar pieces in as many pieces. And now it’s the NY Daily News. It is why I wrote my book, FATWA: Hunted in America.

After every jihad massacre, the enemedia rushes to scrub and whitewash Islam. This is their first and foremost priority. And so now we’re hearing about how the phrase “Allahu akbar,” which jihadis routinely shout as they kill, is really just wonderful. The fact is “Allahu akbar” was Muhammad’s jihadi war cry. It was the “rebel yell” of the invading Muslim armies. Muhammad would wait until daybreak before he would strike a village. If he heard the Muslim call to prayer and the identifying “Allahu akbar” chanted in that prayer, he would not attack. If the Muslim call to prayer was not heard, Muhammad and his mujaheddin would then kill, rape, pillage while screaming, “Allahu akbar!,” Allah is greater [than your god].

This campaign by the left to dissemble, deceive and disarm the American people in the greatest threat to our lives is evil.

“Extremists distort powerful meaning of ‘Allahu Akbar’ in acts of terrorism,” by Zainab Chaudry, New York Daily News, November 4, 2017:

Allahu Akbar.

It’s one of the most frequently spoken pentasyllabic phrases in the Arabic language.

It is recited by millions of Muslims and Arab Christians every day.

And, at least in the West, it has become wrongly linked to terrorism.

Known as the takbir in Arabic, the phrase literally translates to “God is the greatest.”

American-Muslims like myself are reclaiming it — from both the misguided extremists who have misappropriated it, and the pundits who’ve supported their agenda by deliberately or inadvertently endorsing its weaponization.

This phrase is used in a multitude of ways: in worship or prayer; in moments of happiness or relief; to glorify and reflect on God’s majesty; to express joy and dismay; in appreciation of something that resonates with us….

Unfortunately, the copious amounts of misinformation that exists about Islam and Muslims makes some Americans more inclined to believe the worst.

Islamophobes capitalize on this to exploit terrorist acts involving Muslims as being falsely reflective of Islam.

Understanding appropriate context and consulting legitimate sources is crucial when contemplating religion partly because it can help prevent fear, anger and hatred.

Recently, in a despicable and cowardly attack, the man accused of killing eight people after plowing a Home Depot truck onto a bike path in Manhattan reportedly uttered Allahu Akbar after the incident.

He joins a list of others who’ve reportedly said these words after brutal acts of violence

But don’t be deceived by extremists who use this phrase while waging discord and wreaking terror….

So the next time you hear Allahu Akbar — whether it’s in a media report, on an airplane, or in a shopping mall, remember that the phrase used by millions of Muslims and Christians daily to praise God regardless of their circumstances, can never be justified for use when harming His creation.

LOL ! Agree. Here’s news CNN style “Trump steals food from black kid” and some real news too http://bit.ly/2wFirQA

Its Hilarious !

The fact that almost all media are shilling for islam shows how extensive the influence and payout is to the media to do so. They are not doing so out of ignorance but for the saudi/qatar funds.

My understanding is that “Allahu Akbar” is better translated as “Allah is greater”, presumably greater than your god, not “ God is the greatest.”

One thing the NY Daily News can’t explain away: every day on every continent there are acts of violence, murder and terror by followers of Islam; extremist or not, it doesn’t matter.

Islamic terror is the biggest threat to world order since the Nazis. There is no threat from Christians, Jews, Hindus, Sikhs, Buddhists or followers of any other religion – explain that, NY Daily News.

“When the confrontation begins, strike like champions who do not want to go back to this world.
Shout, ‘Allahu Akbar,’ because this strikes fear in the hearts of the non-believers.
God said: ‘Strike above the neck, and strike at all of their extremities.’”

Mohammed Atta, instructions to 9/11 killers.

Hearing “Alice fubar” allows for muslims to be identified and dealt with expediently.

The picture at the top says it all, muslim women fighting to turn the clock back in a civilised liberal western country where they’re treated with equality and respect to a mirror image of the dusty unequal backward Islamic blow hole they left.

Only one word for it – Hijrah.

As liberals have always been on hand to rationalize, minimize, sanitize the nine-digit bodycount run up by communists during the previous century, so liberals now rationalize, minimize, sanitize Islamic terrorism.

Ohhh, now I see. It has a deeper meaning. A more holy meaning. So when we hear them YELL “Allahu Ahkbar” immediately drop to your knees, hands behind your back and SUCCUMB to the MOSLEM!!!

The meaning is soooo holy.

Another interpretation is that the so-called extremists make expressions of FULL POWER–the non-extremists falling short of the full expression. I can’t believe that this interpretation is correct.

Allahu Akbar does not mean god is great, it means Allah is great and Allah is Satan.

Sorry, NY jerk-o-maniacs — you are making me SICK! It is OBVIOUS that you know NOTHING of muslim culture! They constantly shrug and say “in’sh’allah” (“if god wills), but NOT “allahu akbar” — that is ONLY when you are fighting (and presumably and conquering) your enemy.
Knowledge is POWER!!
