Allahu Akbar (nationalsang)

Allahu Akbar (Gud er stor) (arabisk:الله أكبر) er navnet på Libyens nationalsang. Den var oprindeligt en egyptisk marchsang, som blev populær i Egypten og Syrien i løbet af Suez-krigen i 1956. Den blev indført 1. september 1969, af den libyske leder Muammar al-Gaddafi som Libyens officielle nationalsang, som viser hans håb for Den arabiske verden.
