Allah

Who is Allah?

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)   | Allah

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.
