Muslim & Christian Discussion ForumCurrently responding to>>> Quran vs. ChristMuslim saying, frequently used, in situations ranging from greeting to expression of strong sentiments. It is most correctly translated with "God is greater", but in many instances the almost similar "God is great" is an equally correct translation. "Allahu Akbar" is the first part of the adhan, which is heard 5 times daily in Muslim communities. The saying is a very strong expression, that summarize the entire core of Islam. http://i-cias.com/e.o/allahuak.htm The phrase is actually short for "Allahu Akbar min kullisay" which means God is greater than everything. Allahu Akbar by itself translates to "God is greater." (akbar أَكْبَر is an elative form, meaning greater, greatest, or very great.) Muslims leave the phrase unfinished, with the implication that whatever you can think of, God is greater than that, too. The actual title of this phrase is Takbeer (تَكْبِير), while the phrase itself is "Allahu Akbar." Instead of applause, it's better to have someone yell "Takbeer" and the crowd to respond "Allahu Akbar" in chorus. http://encyclopedia.thefreedictionary.c ... hu%20Akbar This statement is said by Muslims numerous times. During the call for prayer, during prayer, when they are happy, and wish to express their approval of what they hear, when they slaughter an animal, and when they want to praise a speaker, Muslims do say this expression of Allahu Akbar. Actually it is most said expression in the world. Its meaning: "Allah is the Greatest." Muslims praise Allah in every aspect of life; and as such they say Allahu Akbar. http://www.usc.edu/dept/MSA/reference/g ... LLAHU.html |
