Yes, Allah is God.

He is Allah, the One and Only. He is the same God worshiped in the Jewish and Christian faiths and is recognisable as such. Across the globe and throughout history people of all faiths and beliefs have turned towards God, or a supreme deity, the Creator of the universe. He is Allah. Allah is God. God the Creator. God the Sustainer.

The word God is spelled and pronounced differently in many languages: the French call him Dieu, the Spanish, Dios and the Chinese refer to the One God as Shangdi. In Arabic, Allah means the One True God, worthy of all submission and devotion. Jewish and Christian Arabs refer to God as Allah, and He is the same One True God referred to in the Biblical passage,
“Hear O Israel, the Lord your God is One”. (Deuteronomy 6.4 & Mark 12.29)

In all three monotheistic religions (Judaism, Christianity and Islam) God and Allah are the same.

However, when asking the question, Is Allah God, it is equally important to understand who Allah is not.
He is not a man, nor is He an ethereal spirit, therefore when Muslims talk about Allah there is no concept of a trinity. He was not begotten nor does He beget, therefore He does not have sons or daughters.

He does not have partners or underlings; therefore, there are no demi gods or minor deities inherent in the concept of Allah. He is not part of His creation and Allah is not in everybody and everything. Consequently, it is not possible to become allahlike or attain allahhood.
“Say (O Muhammad): He is Allah, [who is] One. Allah, the Self-Sufficient Master. He begets not, nor was He begotten; and there is none co-equal or comparable unto Him.” (Qur'an 112)

He is not part of His creation and Allah is not in everybody and everything.

Muslims believe that Islam is the final message of God to humankind, and they believe that God gave the Torah to Prophet Moses as he gave the Gospel to Prophet Jesus. Muslims believe that Judaism and Christianity, in their pristine forms, were divine religions. In fact, one of the tenants of Islam is to believe in all of God’s revealed books. The Prophets of Islam include the same Prophets present in Jewish and Christian traditions; they all came to their people with the same message – to recognize and to worship the One God.

“...were you witnesses when death approached Jacob? When he said unto his sons, ‘What will you worship after me?’ They said, ‘We shall worship your God, the God of your fathers, Abraham, Ishmael and Isaac, One God, and to Him we submit (in Islam).” (Qur'an 2:133)

Muslims love and respect all the Prophets and Messengers of God. However, Muslims believe that the Qur'an contains the only concept of God that has not been tainted by man made ideas and idolatrous practices.

Humankind has taken the purity of God and mixed it up with wild imaginings and strange superstitions. God is not three, He is One. God does not have partners or associates; He is Alone in His majesty and in His dominion. It is not possible to become godlike because there is nothing comparable to God. God is not part of His creation; He is beyond it. He is the first, and the last. God is Allah, the Most Merciful.

I pity for my Yoruba Christians who have been fooled by the Islamic counterparts that they worship the same God.

Read the explanation below to see that Allah hates Jesus Christ cos he is the King of Kings and will do battle against him but will fail.

Below is an Authentic Islamic Hadith

In the hadith ( Sahih-Al-Bukhari Bk 73; Num 224) Mohammed said, “The most awful name in Allah’s sight on the Day of Resurrection, will be (that of) a man calling himself Malik Al-Amlak (the KING OF KINGS).”



Who is this King of kings?



1 Timothy 6:13-15

In the sight of God , who gives life to everything, and of Christ Jesus , who while testifying before Pontius Pilate made the good confession, I charge you to keep this command without spot or blame until the appearing of our Lord Jesus Christ , which God will bring about in his own time— God, the blessed and only Ruler, the KING of KINGS and LORD of LORDS , who alone is immortal and who lives in unapproachable light, whom no one has seen or can see. To him be honor and might forever. Amen.


Revelations 19:13-16 He is dressed in a robe dipped in blood , and His name is the Word of God . The armies of heaven were following him, riding on white horses and dressed in fine linen, white and clean. Coming out of his mouth is a sharp sword with which to strike down the nations. “ He will rule them with an iron scepter. ” He treads the winepress of the fury of the wrath of God Almighty. On his robe and on his thigh he has this name written:
“KING OF KINGS and LORD OF LORDS.”


What will Allah do when he see’s the King of kings?


Revelations 17:14 These shall make war with the Lamb , and the Lamb shall overcome them: for he is LORD OF LORDS, and KING OF KINGS : and they that are with Him are called, and chosen, and faithful.


Why would Allah say that the most awful name in (Allah’s) sight will be on the day of Resurrection when the KING OF KING appears? Why is this awful for Allah?

COS there will be judgment on that day.


Revelations 20:10

“And the devil, who deceived them, was thrown into the lake of burning sulfur, where the beast and the false prophet had been thrown. They will be tormented day and night for ever and ever.”

The hallmark of Islam is deception and extreme brainwashing. Muslims, the ones in Europe and America, claim we worship the same God (to make the Jews and Christians comfortable) but will be quick to curse them in Arabic when reciting the al-fatiha (Quran 1: 1-7) because they (the Jews and the Christians) do not understand Arabic and most, over 98%, have no understanding of Islamic theology.

More than 99% of Christians think that the Qur'an is the only source for Islamic doctrine and this is what Muslims want them to believe. Most Christians have never heard of the hadith, the tasfir, the sira and the sunnah. This is because over 85% of Islamic laws and practices are never found in the Qur'an. My Muslim colleague was shocked when I listed all Islamic source documents. When one understands what is written in the hadith and the sira, against the Christians and the Jews, you will fear Islam. You will understand that Islam is a complete declaration of enmity between mankind based on belief.

If Muslims, Jews and Christians worship the same God there will be no these verses in the Quran (Qur'an 9:29-30, 5:51, 98:6, 8:39, 1:1-7, etc). Its unfortunate that Islam and Christianity are two parallel lines that cannot meet; a diametrically opposite view and belief system. There is no single verse in the Quran where allahh loves non-muslims (80% of humanity) or where allahh asked Muslims to love non-muslims. There is none!

No matter how Muslims want to spin it, allahh remains a pre-islamic Arabian deity who was worshipped by Mohammed's grand father (Abdul-mutalib) and his father (Abdullah ibn Abdul-mutalib).

Op you are right, it should have been , "there no allah but allah and muhammed is his prophet " , if allah means god and not name of their god. The word "God" is a title for a supreme being worthy of worship.

It also means other prophets in the Bible are not the prophet of allah except muhammed , if not they would have been saying that " Muhammed is one of His prophets" .

Allah is the Arabic equivalent of YHWH(Hebrew), Yahweh(Greek), Jehoval(Latin) and God(English).

alBHAGDADI:


If allah is the Arabic equivalent of God's name in Hebrew, YAHWEH, then prove it by shouting YAHWEH AKBAR in your mosque this Friday.

If your head doesn't fall off, then you are correct.

UmarIbnShittu:
yahweh is not arabic Akbar is arabic They have to be in the same categories b4 it will make sense

alBHAGDADI:
Okay

Shout YAHWEH is GREAT in your mosque this Friday.

If they don't slaughter you, then it means we worship the same God.
