Khaybar Khaybar ya yahud

From Simple English Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Khaybar Khaybar ya yahud (Arabicː خَيَبَرِ خَيَبَرِ يَاَ يَهُوُدْ جَيَشِ مُحَمَدْ سَوُفَ يَعُوُدْ) is an Arabic chant used in the Battle of Khaybar where Muhammad, the founder of Islam, defeated the Jews of Khaybar, an oasis in modern Saudi Arabia. The chant is deemed antisemitic by Israelis (and their supporters), but is commonly used as a rallying cry by Palestinians (and their supporters).[1][2] Khaybar was a home to a large amount of Jews at the time, but they were expelled due to their breakage of the treaty put in place.[3][4]
