It was released in December 2013 and soon became their most popular nasheed.^[1] The American magazine The New Republic referred to it as the most influential nasheed of 2014.^[2]

The chant is a capella apart from sound effects of a sword being unsheathed, feet stomping, and gunfire. It was produced by the Ajnad Media Foundation, which produces most Islamic State anasheed. The nasheed has also been used by the Nigerian jihadist group Boko Haram to accompany speeches.
