And what if Allah and Yahweh are the same entity? A name is just a name.

Bud
But the strange thing in this book that the story of Mary Mary's blog, entitled


If this book of human beings?!!!
Story had not been written on behalf of the Muslim woman


Talked about Jesus in the many pages

I think that if people will not write the name of Mary and her son

The fair or excellent names of God

The name of the Creator is Allah in Arabic, Yahweh in Hebrew, God in English, Khodah in Kurdish and Persian and other names in other languages.

These words are synonyms of God the Creator in different languages.

God created all these nations, and He has no nationality to which He belongs; all of them are His servants.

The word Allah in Arabic, originally is al-ilah which means: the god.

Therefore, insisting that the name of the Creator is only Yahweh or Allah or God is not correct; He - be glorified - is named by different names according to the peoples and nations.

Moreover, there are other fair names of God: the Creator, Most Gracious, Most Forgiving, Most Merciful, Most Kind, Most High, the King, the All-Hearing, the All-Seeing, the All-Knowing ...etc.

Such fair and excellent names of God are called upon and prayed according to the situation: man can say:

>> God, help me; You are my Helper.
>> Be Merciful to me: You are the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful.
>> Forgive me: You are the Most Forgiving.
>> Provide for me out of Your provision: You are the Best of Providers.
>> Guide me to the correct way: You are the Guide to the true way.
>> Offer to me, out of Your possession and ownership: You are the Owner and King.
>> Give to me, out of Your generosity: You are the Most Generous and Open-handed.
>> Teach me out of Your knowledge: You are the All-Knowing of everything.
>> Be kind to me and to my family: You are the Most Kind.
And so on.

This is in the Quran 17: 110
قُلِ ادْعُواْ اللّهَ أَوِ ادْعُواْ الرَّحْمَنَ أَيًّا مَّا تَدْعُواْ فَلَهُ الأَسْمَاء الْحُسْنَى

The explanation:
(Say: "Call upon God [lit. Allah], or call upon the Most Gracious;

whichsoever you call upon, to Him belong the Names Most Beautiful.")
-----------------------------------------------------

So Yahweh is a Hebrew word: then before the Hebrew, what was He called?
And Allah is an Arabic word: then before the Arab, what was He called?

Moreover, people on other planets: Do they call God Yahweh or Allah or God?
Certainly, they call Him by other names according to their languages. And certainly, they do not know Arabic or Hebrew or any of our languages, neither any of our prophets: neither Jesus, nor Moses nor Mohammed; they have their own prophets and apostles who are sent by God to all peoples everywhere.

Therefore, insisting to call God the Creator as Allah or Yahweh only; this indicates only the narrow-mindedness; and certainly such people did not consult God and He said to them that anyone calling me some other names: such one is wrong and it is only you that are right.

What is the Holy Quran?

It is the duty of every Muslim, man, woman, or child, to read the Quran and understand it according to his own capacity. If any one of us attains to some knowledge or understanding of it by study, contemplation, and the test of life, both outward and inward, it is his duty, according to his capacity, to instruct others, and share with them the joy and peace which result from contact with the spiritual world.
The Holy Quran - indeed every religious book - has to be read, not only with the tongue and voice and eyes, but with the best light that our intellect can supply, and even more, with the truest and purest light which our heart and conscience can give us. It is in this spirit that we would have readers approach the Quran. Read more about the Quran here >
