The Muslims say Allah Akbar.

In Hebrew an Akbar is a mouse.

So basically the Muslims are saying Allah is a mouse.

Hebrew (עִבְרִית ‘Ivrit) is a Semitic language of the
Afro-Asiatic language family spoken by more than seven million people
in Israel with significant communities in the West Bank, the United
States, and Jewish communities around the world.

The core of the Hebrew Bible (also known as the Tanakh) is the first
five books of the Torah, which Judaism and Christianity traditionally
hold to have been recorded in the time of Moses 13th century BCE. It is
written in Classical Hebrew, and much of its present form is
specifically in the dialect of Biblical Hebrew that scholars believe
flourished roughly around the 6th century BCE, near the Babylonian
Exile. In light of the Torah, Jews have called Hebrew לשון
הקודש the "language of Holiness" (Lĕshôn Ha-Kôdesh) since
ancient times.

Most linguists agree that after the 6th century BCE when the
Neo-Babylonian Empire destroyed Jerusalem and exiled its population to
Babylon and the Persian Empire allowed them to return, the Biblical
Hebrew dialect prevalent in the Bible came to be replaced in daily use
by new dialects of Hebrew and a local version of Aramaic.

After the 2nd century CE when Roman Empire exiled the Jewish population
of Jerusalem and parts of Roman occupied Judea, Hebrew gradually ceased
to be a spoken language roughly around 300 CE, but remained a major
literary language during the centuries since. Not only was it used for
religion, but for a large variety of purposes. Letters, contracts,
commerce, science, philosophy, medicine, poetry, justice codes, all
resorted to Hebrew, which thus adapted to various new fields and
terminologies by borrowings and inventions.

Hebrew was revitalized during the late 19th and early 20th century as
the spoken language of Israel, called New Hebrew and also called
Israeli Hebrew or Modern Hebrew. Eventually it replaced a score of
languages spoken by Jews at that time, such as Arabic, Ladino (also
called Judezmo), Yiddish, Russian, and other languages of the Jewish
diaspora.

Because of its large disuse for centuries, Hebrew lacked many modern
words. Several were adapted as neologisms from the Hebrew Bible or
borrowed from other languages by Eliezer Ben-Yehuda. Largely because of
this, modern Hebrew became an official language in British-ruled
Palestine in 1921, and the primary official language of the State of
Israel, (Arabic and English maintained their official language status).
