Allah The Arabic word for God.
After a revelation given to the prophet Mohammed on Mount Hira, the name Allah referred to a single God.
Previously the Arabic term Allah designated a supreme God among other gods.
Moslems believe that Mohammed is the greatest among many prophets to have walked the earth. Mohammed is not equal to God but Allah’s great messenger.
The word Allah is not to be confused with the ninety-nine beautiful names of God mentioned in the Koran.
Arabic Christians use the term Allah to refer to ‘God, the Father’ (Allah al-ab).
