The classic Arabic word for God.

Also, in the original Christian Bibles, God is referred to as Allah. In old Hebrew, the word 'Elohim' refers to God (holding similarity to the Arabic word 'Allahum' meaning 'God is'.

The one God, not a god, not exclusively Islamic, as the definition above fallaciously claims. Allah is the only God, the god of all three Abrahamic faiths. "Allah" is the Arabic word for "God".

The Arabic word for God. Used by Christian Arabs as well as Muslim and Jewish Arabs. Not exclusive to any religion in the same way that the English word "God" is not exclusively used by any religion.

The Arabic word for God. He is the same god that Christians and Jews worship. Saying Muslims worship a different god named "Allah" is like saying Spanish-speaking people worship a different god named "Dios", or that Germans worship a different god named "Gott".

In The name of Allah,

Quran proves - "Allah" is NOT a 'moon god':
"And from among His Signs are the night and the day, and the sun and the moon. Do not bow down (prostrate) to the sun nor to the moon, but only bow down (prostrate) to "Allah" Who created them, if you (really) worship Him." Quran 41:37

The Christian acquaintance who sent me a copy of Morey's booklet also sent me five questions related to this subject. I will attempt to answer them below:

Question 1:
What is the significance of the crescent moon in Islam?
Answer:
The Qur'ân answers this question before you asked it. Read this verse:
They ask you about the new moons. Say: These are signs to mark fixed periods of time for mankind and for the pilgrimage (Qur'ân 2:189).

Question 2:
Why does Islam follow a lunar calendar?
Answer:
In both the Bible and the Qur'ân religious festivals are regulated by the lunar calendar. Jews and Muslims have kept to these regulations which they believe to be from God. Why does Christianity follow a solar calendar?

Question 3:
Why is the feast of Ramadan marked by the appearance of the crescent moon?
Answer:
I think you mean the fast of Ramadan. God commanded Muslims in the Qur'ân to fast from dawn to sunset during the month called Ramadan (see Qur'ân 2:185, 187). The beginning and end of the month is determined by the crescent (2:189) based ...

'The mighty god who (according to the muslims) Created all the universe. Maybe you've been wondering about suicide bombers. Yes they shout "Allah akbah!!!" before they blow up. They saying something like; "i am willing to die for Allah" crazy huh?

"Allah is like a father to us all"
"ALLAH AKBAH!!!!"'

to the person who stated this, Allah-o-Akbar actually means "god is great".

And those extremists are not true Muslims. They think they are but they actually distort the concept of Islam to suit their own selfish reasons. Mullahs, or extremists, hate non-muslims, and therefore try to use Islam as an excuse for violence. Islam actually means "Peace", or "Submission to Allah", and is a religon of tolerance.

'If Allah is the creator of all... then why does he create bombs that fall on our houses?'

Incase this genius hasn't noticed,MAN invented bombs and other weopans of torture. Allah created life, the universe, and all the creatures that inhabit this world and maybe other worlds. He created heaven and hell, angels and jinns. And if you believe this philosophy, it could also be said that any other monotheistic religon such as Christianity and Judaism could ALSO be blamed for bombs. But they aren't. Because for one it isn't true. And secondly they don't face the same severe stereotypes and racism.

MUSLIMS pray to the same god you all pray to but we call him ALLAH because ISLAM originated in ARABIA where they SPEAK ARABIC! they believe in adam and eve, noah's ark, moses, oh yea believe it or not even JESUS! u stupid blubering mther fuckers, pagan god my ass you whores shut the fuck up and stop the damned racism you dont understand us!
