MISCONCEPTION: Muslims worship a different God

Allah is simply the Arabic word for God. Allah for Muslims is the greatest and most inclusive of the Names of God, it is an Arabic word of rich meaning, denoting the one and only God and ascribing no partners to Him. It is exactly the same word, which the Jews, in Hebrew, use for God (Eloh). Aramaic the language Jesus spoke, Allaha is the word for God. God has an identical name in Judaism, Christianity, and Islam; Allah is the same God worshiped
by Muslims, Christians and Jews.

It is interesting to note that Arabic, Malay, Indonesian translations of the Bible use the word Allah to mean God. Both Arab Jews and Christians use the word Allah to mean the Creator.

Muslims believe that Allah's sovereignty is to be acknowledged in worship and in the pledge to obey His teaching and commandments, conveyed through His messengers and prophets who were sent at various times and in many places throughout history. However, it should be noted that God in Islam is One and Only. He, the Exalted, does not get tired, does not have a son (i.e. Jesus or have associates) nor does He have human-like attributions as found in other faiths.

“Say: He is God the One and Only;
God the Eternal Absolute;
He begets not nor is He begotten;
And there is none like unto Him.”

[Quran 112:1-4]
