"Inch'Allah" is a song composed and sung in French by Salvatore Adamo in 1967. The lyrics were written by Adamo as a peace song[1] in the context of the Six-Day War between Israel and the Arab States.[2] The song was banned in virtually all Arab countries for what they perceived as its pro-Israel sentiments and the mentioning of Jerusalem as a Jewish city after it fell under Israeli control during the war.[3]
Inch'Allah is the French equivalent of Insha'Allah (fr:Inch Allah), which means "if Allah wills" (or, loosely, "God willing"), in Arabic
