Yusuf Estes (born Joseph Estes, 1944) is an American preacher from Texas who converted from Christianity to Islam in 1991. He claims to have been a
Muslim Chaplain for the United States Bureau of Prisons through the 1990s, and to have served a delegate to the United Nations World Peace Conference for Religious Leaders held at the U.N. in September 2000. Estes is the founder and president of Guide US TV, a free-to-air Internet and satellite TV channel, which broadcasts programs about Islam.
The Bible is a canonical collection of texts sacred in Judaism and Christianity. There is no single "Bible" and many Bibles with varying contents
exist. The term Bible is shared between Judaism and Christianity, although the contents of each of their collections of canonical texts is not the same.
<br><br>
Different religious groups include different books within their Biblical canons, in different orders, and sometimes divide or combine books, or incorporate additional material into canonical books.
<br><br>
The Hebrew Bible, or Tanakh, contains 24 books. Christian Bibles range from the 66 books of the Protestant canon to the 81 books of the Ethiopian Orthodox Church canon.
<br><br>
The first part of Christian Bibles is the Old Testament, which contains, at minimum, the 24 books of the Hebrew Bible divided into 39 books and ordered differently from the Hebrew Bible. The Catholic Church and Eastern Christian churches also hold certain deuterocanonical books and passages to be part of the Old Testament canon.
<br><br>
The second part is the New Testament, containing 27 books: the 4 Canonical gospels, Acts of the Apostles, 21 Epistles or didactic letters, and the Book of Revelation.
Allah is the Arabic word for God in Abrahamic religions. In the English language, the word generally refers to God in Islam. The word is thought to be
derived by contraction from al-ilah, which means 'the god', and is related to El and Elah, the Hebrew and Aramaic words for God. The word Allah has been used by Arabic people of different religions since pre-Islamic times. More specifically, it has been used as a term for God by Muslims (both Arab and non-Arab) and Arab Christians.
Frequently Asked Questions
1.Who is Allah?
Allah is the official Arabic word used to signify God. The title is entirely unique because it has no plural or gendered forms, unlike standard words like gods or goddesses. It simply translates to "The One and Only True God". Linguistic origins show variants like "Elah" or "Eloh" in the Hebrew Torah, as well as in the original Aramaic language spoken by Jesus.
2.Is Allah the Moon-God?
No, this is a entirely false claim that originally originated from a Christian pastor named Robert Morey; Islam explicitly refutes this idea, maintaining that Allah is the all-powerful, unique Creator of the entire universe and not a pagan entity or a creation like the moon.
3.Where did the name Allah come from?
The word Allah is the standard Arabic word for God used in all Arabic Bible translations, and its roots are identical to the Aramaic word "Eloi" used by Jesus on the cross.
It was used in some English translations of the Bible like the original "Scofield Reference Bible"
In the New Testament, Jesus is believed to cry before his death 'ELOI, ELOI, LAMA SABACHTHANI', Eloi is the exact Arabic word "Elahi" which comes from the same root as Allah.
