Talk:Allah

Claims about YHWH

I removed "By this time [1934] Christians were also becoming accustomed to retaining the Hebrew term "YHWH" untranslated (it was previously translated as 'the Lord')." The articles Sacred Name Bibles, Sacred Name Movement and Angelo Traina document that the date for this is decades later.

Allah Is the Personal Divine Name of the Lord

Two Points

1. The Personal Name of God Is Allah الله{`Verily , I am ALLAH الله ; there is no "ilah god اله but I, so worship ME alone and observe Prayer for my remembrance}[20:14],{`O Moses, verily, I am ALLAH الله,the Mighty, the Wise} [27:9].Here in these two Quranic verses,we see how the DIVINE defined himself to Moses PBUH by his DIVINE NAME Allah الله. See also Quran,Verse[28:30].

Meaning Allah الله is not the generic word for god, but it is the DIVINE name of the Lord. The generic word for God in Arabic ,(as you can see from the examples mentioned above), is " ilah اله".

2. Allah is NOT Yhwh (and definitely NOT being mentioned in Quran by the name EL). It says Jacob Struggle with god of the bible "שָׂריתָ עִם אֱלהים Gen 32:28, and Jacob Would NOT release THIS DEFEATED god till this DEFEATED god surrender by blessing Jacob Gen 32:27 Jacob called the name of the place "Peniel פְּנִיאֵל : FOR I HAVE SEEN GOD FACE TO FACE, כִּי-רָאִיתִי אֱלֹהִים פָּנִים אֶל-פָּנִים, וַתִּנָּצֵל נַפְשִׁי,meaning that Jacob indeed wrestled and shafted that biblical god.Plus the bible describe yhwh as a MAN ( Ish אִישׁ ) Not God {Yhwh is A MAN ( אִישׁ ) of WAR מִלְחָמָה} Exodus 15:3.

Yhwh is a MAN ( Ish אִישׁ )Exodus 15:3, Allah on the other hand is God Not a Man. Therefore Allah is NOT yhwh.

Edit request on 1 November 2012

Since the late 1900's Allah has only been known as the one name. A cult or group of people have retraced Allah's roots and decided to look deeper into his name. The cult/group researched the Arabic language and made a personal request to speak to a man whom went by the name of Nedir Ecnaleahs. The cult/group had asked about Allah and were told that the new name of Allah is Ssod Ekaj.

Allah is registered in the Netherlands as a global brand!

Croatian writer Giancarlo Kravar: In the Netherlands, the artist Teun Castelein(32) from Amsterdam for just 250 euros register the name of Allah as a global brand, reports Telegraf.nl. It is possible in the Netherlands due to unregulated registration rules brands. Rightly so, this "artistic" act caused the revolt of Islamic organizations in the world.78.3.219.240 (talk) 18:20, 9 January 2013 (UTC)

ALLAH is NOT Al-Ilah

there's a wide spread false claim about the name "ALLAH" being derived from "Al-Ilah"

this is grammatically wrong

if it's truly derived from Al-Ilah, then the expression ya Allah ('O Allah!') would have been ungrammatical, because according to the Arabic language when you address someone by the vocative form ya followed by a title, the al ('the') must be dropped from the title. For example, you cannot say ya ar-rabb but must say ya rabb (for 'O Lord'). So if the word Allah was al-ilah ('the God'), we would not be able to say: ya Allah, which we do.

Lane's Arabic-English Lexicon (which is based on classical Arabic dictionaries), says under the word Allah, while citing many linguistical authorities:

"Allah ... is a proper name applied to the Being Who exists necessarily, by Himself, comprising all the attributes of perfection, a proper name denoting the true god ... the al being inseparable from it, not derived..." Allah is thus a proper name, not derived from anything, and the Al is inseparable from it. The word al-ilah (the god) is a different word. The word Allah is unique among the names of God in all the languages of mankind, in that it was never applied to any being other than God. The pre-Islamic Arabs used it to refer to the Supreme Being, and never applied it to any of the other things they worshipped. Other names of God used by mankind, such as "lord", "god", "khuda", etc. have all also been used for beings other than God. They have meanings which refer to some particular attribute of God, but "Allah" is the name which refers to the Being Himself as His personal name.

Previous Arabic Region deities & gods.

Whom exactly, where the gods & deities in the arabic regions before islam set in. Eqyptian comes to mind, so do those of the roman panteos due roman empire influence. Islam, in context, was an attempt to unify all of the middle east under one leadership, either counter to an existing system (revolt implications), or as another form of imposition to obtain an excuse to harash, eleminate, or conquer/enslave other regions (the same as in cristiantiy). (or to rally around, but this is seldom the case except if a slave theology [applicable for cristianity, but not applicable to islam, islam being a slave master theology, except if taken as a counter to cristianities crusades, at which time that also becomes a slave theology, a counter revolutionary theology).

Where there any other gods/deities, within the sahara regions, similar to roman & greek but not eqypcian based. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 186.94.187.76 (talk) 14:00, 22 February 2013 (UTC)

Run along sentence:

The above, by either angelic, demonic, or simple psychic reference, was mentioned to have a runalong sentence. I take exception, it is not a runalong sentence, it is a dragon sentence, that drag onnn and onnnn and onnnnn, being either, well, one of gary gygax´s references in the first edition monstrous any mal, in allegory representation.

Very correct, by the way, god, allah, even wikipedia´s debates, being considered dragons,

And dragging on, and on and on and on and on.
