Question: 'Who is Allah? What is the origin of belief in Allah?' Answer: Allah is an Arabic word that means “God” or, more accurately, “the God.” In Western culture, it is commonly believed that the word Allah is used exclusively by Muslims to describe their God, but this is not actually true. The word Allah is used by Arabic speakers of all Abrahamic faiths (including Christianity. Allah: Allah, the one and only God in Islam; also, the term meaning ‘God’ for speakers of Arabic irrespective of religion. Etymologically, the name Allah is probably a contraction of the Arabic al-Ilah, ‘the God,’ and its origins can be traced back to the earliest Semitic writings, in which the word for god was il or el.
Allah is the proper name for the Supreme Being in the Arabiclanguage, used by Arabic speaking people of the three so-calledAbrahamic faiths (Jews, Christians, and Muslims) in reference to'God'.
The entry for the Allah in the Encyclopedia of the Modern MiddleEast and North Africa, states thatAllah is unique, the only Deity, creator of the universe andomnipotent. The term Allāh is derived from a contraction ofthe Arabic definite article al- 'the' and ʼilāh'deity, god' to al-lāh meaning 'the [sole] deity, God'(ho theos monos). Cognates of the name 'Allāh' exist inother Semitic languages, including Hebrew and Aramaic. Thecorresponding Aramaic form is אֱלָהָא ʼĔlāhā in BiblicalAramaic and ܐܰܠܳܗܳܐ ʼAlâhâ or ʼĀlōho in Syriac.
Arab Christians today use terms such as Allāh al-ʼAb (الله الأب, 'God the Father'),
Allah is an Arabic name, which means The God.
Allah Is The Creator Of The Universe, Everything &Everyone!
Muslims believe that Allah is the Lord of Adam, Abraham, Moses,Jesus and Muhammad. He is the One that people seek His help whenthey face a disaster and no being can help but Him.
Unfortunately, some non Muslims believe that Muslims worshipdifferent god than god of Christians or Jews. Those non Muslims areeither:
Those non Muslims, mistakenly, believe that Allah is an 'Arabgod' or a 'moon god,' or some sort of idol.
It is important to clarify that Muslims worship the same God,the Creator, worshiped by other Heaven religions; Judaism andChristianity. This same God is named in Arabic as Allah. Allah isthe proper name of the One True God, in the Arabic language.
Even the Arabic speaking Christians and Jews use the name Allahin their Arabic holy books and worship Allah. Arab Christians usedto say Allāh al-ʼAb ( الله الأب, 'God the Father') orsome claim that 'Isa Ibn Allah' in Arabic that means in English'Jesus son of God' as Jesus in Arabic is called Isa and son inArabic is called Ibn.
Accordingly, it is a matter of different languages that causedifferent names for the same God; the Creator, the All-Mighty, andthe All-Merciful. It is not a matter of different God worship.
