'Allah is Great' Adverts Approved on Busses in London, Church of England Ads Refused in Cinemas

A British Muslim charity has been forced to defend itself after it ran an outdoor campaign on busses in five UK cities that ran the slogan ‘God is Great’.
The charity, Islamic Relief, is running the bus OOH campaign that says “Subhan Allah’ which translates to ‘God is Great’ or ‘Glory to God’.
The campaign’s critics aren’t so much angry that it’s an Islamic slogan (and is basically calling for donations to charity) but that similar Christian campaigns had been banned by regulators. Of note, was a campaign last Christmas by ChurchAds.net that featured a nativity scene which was banned for being too religious and contained the Lord’s prayer.
