Today it is reported that a "U.S. Jihadi" from Florida detonated a suicide bomb in Syria. CNN and other mainstream networks are showing the footage of the explosion with the familiar phrase being yelled out in the background, "Allahu Akbar!" Before today, I had never taken the time to decode this phrase, but after doing so, I'm not surprised by what I found.
- Allahu = 1+12+12+1+8+21 = 55
- Akbar = 1+11+2+1+18 = 33
- The phrase means "God is Greater!"
Allahu Akbar (Arabic: الله أكبر) is an Islamic phrase, called Takbir in Arabic, meaning "God is greater" or "God is [the] greatest".The word 'Amen', is much like the word 'Akbar'.
Allahu Akbar or Allahu Ekber and similar variants may also refer to:
- Allahu Akbar (anthem), the national anthem of Libya from 1969 to 2011
- Allahu Akbar (film), a 1977 Indian Malayalam film
- "Allahu Akbar" (Matoub), a song written by Lounès Matoub
- Allahüekber Dağları, a range of mountains in northeast Turkey. In 1914 it was astride the border between Turkey and Russia.
- Allah-o Akbar Rural District, an administrative subdivision of Iran
- "Allah U Akbar", a song by Brand Nubian from their 1993 album In God We Trust
- Amen = 1+13+5+14 = 33
If you doubt that, think of post 9/11-America and feelings towards Islam.
