          I’m assuming the poster is Christian, tbf. If they’re just a very demonstrative Zoroastrian, then it’s not the same god (mostly. That’s a little debatable, but I’m not informed enough to debate it).

          But the god of Abraham is the god of Abraham. If there’s a debate there, you’ll have to explain it to me.

          Edit: I saw your edit, nvm!

        Strictly speaking we don’t know which god the original image is referencing, although I’d agree it’s likely to be the Abrahamic God.

      “Allahu akbar” could even be roughly translated in intention as “oh my god”, or “dear lord”, or “HOLY SHIT!”. Yes literal translation is “God is great”, but what the fuck is “Oh Jesus in heaven” if not that.
