Original Note:
"Allahu Akbar" is not only used in harmful contexts. It means "God is greater" in Arabic, used in prayers, the call to prayer, joyful events like childbirth, and in distress. Despite its positive spiritual meaning, extremists' misuse has led to negative views. https://www.learnreligions.com/allahu-akbar-definition-2352758 https://aboutislam.net/shariah/contemporary-issues/allahu-akbar-really-means/
