Über dieses E-Book
It is a known fact that every language has one or more terms that are used to refer to God and sometimes to lesser deities at the same time. This is not the case with Allah SWT. Allah is the personal name of the One true God. Nothing else can be called Allah.
The term has no plural or gender. This shows its uniqueness when compared with the word "god," which can be made plural, as in "gods," or made feminine, as in "goddess." It is interesting to note that Allah is the personal name of God in Aramaic, the language of Jesus and a sister language of Arabic.
The One true God is a reflection of the unique concept that Islam associates with Allah SWT. To a Muslim, Allah SWT is the Almighty Creator and Sustainer of the universe, Who is similar to nothing, and nothing is comparable to Him.
The Prophet Muhammad SAW was asked by his contemporaries about Allah SWT; the answer came directly from Allah SWT Himself in the form of a short chapter of The Noble Quran, which is considered to be the essence of the unity or the motto of pure monotheism. This is chapter 112, which reads:
"In the name of Allah, the Merciful, the Compassionate. Say (O Muhammad), He is Allah, the One God, the Self-Sufficient, who has not begotten, nor has been begotten, and equal to Him is not anyone." (The Noble Quran)

Prestory
SOME OF THE BIGGEST misconceptions that many non-Muslims have about Islam have to do with the word Allah.
For various reasons, many people have come to believe that Muslims worship a different God than Christians and Jews. This is totally false, since Allah
is simply the Arabic word for God
- and there is only One God. Let there be no doubt - Muslims worship the God of Adam,Noah, Abraham, Moses, David and Jesus - peace be upon them all. However, it is certainly true that Jews, Christians and Muslims all have different concepts of Almighty God.
For example, Muslims - like Jews - reject the Christian beliefs of the Trinity and the Divine Incarnation. This, however, does not mean that each of these three religions worships a different God - because, as we have already said, there is only One True God. Judaism, Christianity and Islam all claim to be Abrahamic Faiths
, and all of them are also classified as monotheistic.
However, Islam teaches that other religions have, in one way or another, distorted and nullified a pure and proper belief in Almighty God by neglecting His true teachings and mixing them with man-made ideas.
First of all, it is important to note that Allah
is the same word that Arabic-speaking Christians and Jews use for God. If you pick up an Arabic Bible, you will see the word Allah
being used where God
is used in English. This is because Allah
is a word in the Arabic language equivalent to the English word God
with a capital G
. Additionally, the word Allah
cannot be made plural, a fact which goes hand-in-hand with the Islamic concept of God.
It is interesting to note that the Aramaic word El
, which is the word for God in the language that Jesus spoke, is certainly more similar in sound to the word Allah
than the English word God.
This also holds true for the various Hebrew words for God, which are El
and Elah
, and the plural or glorified form Elohim.
The reason for these similarities is that Aramaic, Hebrew and Arabic are all Semitic languages with common origins. It should also be noted that in translating the Bible into English, the Hebrew word El
is translated variously as God
, god
and angel
! This imprecise language allows different translators, based on their preconceived notions, to translate the word to fit their own views. The Arabic word Allah
presents no such difficulty or ambiguity, since it is only used for Almighty God alone. Additionally, in English, the only difference between god
, meaning a false god, and God
, meaning the One True God, is the capital G
. Due to the above mentioned facts, a more accurate translation of the word Allah
into English might be The One -and-Only God
or The One True God.
More importantly, it should also be noted that the Arabic word Allah
contains a deep religious message due to its root meaning and origin. This is because it stems from the Arabic verb ta’allaha (or alaha), which means to be worshipped.
Thus in Arabic, the word Allah
means The One who deserves all worship.
This, in a nutshell, is the Pure Monotheistic message of Islam.

Thus in Arabic, the word Allah
means The One who deserves all worship.
This, in a nutshell, is the Pure Monotheistic message of Islam.
Suffice it to say that just because someone claims to be a monotheistic
Jew, Christian or Muslim, that does not keep them from falling into corrupt beliefs and idolatrous practices. Many people, including some Muslims, claim belief in One God
even though they’ve fallen into acts of idolatry. Certainly, many Protestants accuse Roman Catholics of idolatrous practices in regards to the saints and the Virgin Mary. Likewise, the Greek Orthodox Church is considered idolatrous
by many other Christians because in much of their worship they use icons. However, if you ask a Roman Catholic or a Greek Orthodox person if God is One
, they will invariably answer: Yes!.
This claim, however, does not stop them from being creature worshipping
idolaters. The same goes for Hindus, who just consider their gods to be manifestations
or incarnations
of the One Supreme God.
Before concluding... there are some people out there, who are obviously not on the side of truth, that want to get people to believe that Allah
is just some Arabian god
, and that Islam is completely other
- meaning that it has no common roots with the other Abrahamic religions (i.e. Christianity and Judaism). To say that Muslims worship a different God
because they say Allah
is just as illogical as saying that French people worship another God because they use the word Dieu
, that Spanish-speaking people worship a different God because they say Dios
or that the Jews worshipp a different God because they sometimes call Him Yahweh.
Certainly, reasoning like this is quite ridiculous! It should also be mentioned, that claiming that any one language uses the only the correct word for God is tantamount to denying the universality of God’s message to mankind, which was to all nations, tribes and people through various prophets who spoke different languages.
We would like to ask our readers about the motives of these people? The reason is that the Ultimate Truth of Islam stands on solid ground and its unshakeable belief in the Unity of God is above reproach. Due to this, Christians can’t criticize its doctrines directly, but instead fabricate things about Islam that aren’t true so that people lose the desire to learn more. If Islam were presented in the proper way to the world, it surely might make many people reconsider and re-evaluate their own beliefs. It is quite likely that when they find out that there is a universal religion in the world that teaches people to worship and love God, while also practicing Pure Monotheism, would at least feel that they should re-examine the basis for their own beliefs and doctrines.
The Concept of God In Islam
IT IS A KNOWN FACT that every language has one or more terms that are used to refer to God and sometimes to lesser deities at the same time. This is not the case with Allah. Allah is the personal name of the One true God. Nothing else can be called Allah. The term has no plural or gender. This shows its uniqueness when compared with the word god,
which can be made plural, as in gods,
or made feminine, as in goddess.
It is interesting to note that Alah is the personal name of God in Aramaic, the language of Jesus and a sister language of Arabic.
The One true God is a reflection of the unique concept that Islam associates with Allah. To a Muslim, Allah is the Almighty Creator and Sustainer of the universe, Who is similar to nothing, and nothing is comparable to Him. The Prophet Muhammad was asked by his contemporaries about Allah; the answer came directly from Allah Himself in the form of a short chapter of the Quran, which is considered to be the essence of the unity or the motto of monotheism. This is chapter 112, which reads:
In the name of Allah, the Merciful, the Compassionate.
Say (O Muhammad), He is Allah, the One God, the Self-Sufficient, who has not begotten, nor has been begotten, and equal to Him is not anyone.
Some non-Muslims allege that God in Islam is a stern and cruel God who demands to be obeyed fully and is, consequently, not loving and kind. Nothing could be farther from the truth than this allegation. It is enough to know that, with the exception of one, each of the 114 chapters of the Quran begins with the verse, In the name of God, the Merciful; the Compassionate.
In one of the sayings of Prophet Muhammad, may the mercy and blessings of God be upon him, we are told that:
God is more loving and kind than a mother to her dear child.
On the other hand, God is also Just. Hence, evildoers and sinners must have their share of punishment, and the virtuous must have God’s bounties and favors. Actually, God’s attribute of Mercy has full manifestation in His attribute of Justice. People suffering throughout their lives for His sake should not receive similar treatment from their Lord as people who oppress and exploit others their whole lives. Expecting similar treatment for them would amount to negating the very belief in the accountability of man in the Hereafter and thereby negate all the incentives for a moral and virtuous life in this world. The following Quranic verses are very clear and straightforward in this respect.
Verily, for the Righteous are gardens of Delight, in the Presence of their Lord. Shall We then treat the people of Faith like the people of Sin? What is the matter with you? How judge you?
(Quran 68:34-36)
Islam rejects characterizing God in any human form or depicting Him as favoring certain individuals or nations on the basis of wealth, power or race. He created human-beings as equals. They may distinguish themselves and
