BAGHDAD: Every time the bombs and missiles start falling on Baghdad, muezzins from the mosques around start reciting the takbir prayers through loud speakers to comfort the people 

Allahu Akbar Allahu Akbar Allahu Akbar (God is Great, God is Great, God is Great) La Illaha Illallahu Allahu Akbar (There is no other God but Allah. God is great),” the prayers go on and on throughout the night just like the missiles and bombs.
