What Do the Bible and Quran Say About Allah and God?

<h1>What Do the Bible and Quran Say About Allah and God?</h1>Author: <a title="Prof.dr. Ibrahim Khalil" href="http://www.articlesbase.com/authors/prof.dr.-ibrahim-khalil/14726.htm">Prof.dr. Ibrahim Khalil</a> The unique phenomenon of the name Allah:

In Arabic, the name Allah is composed of four characters; they are: Aleph, Lam, Lam and Haa

Allah is pronounced as Allahu when comes at the beginning of a sentence.

The name Allah is the Great name of the Lord, the Almighty Creator of this cosmos.

The name Allah is mentioned in Quran 1567 times

God is mentioned in the Bible 3877 times.

The unique linguistic phenomenon of the name Allah:

The name Allah is a unique name which is quite different from the name God.

From the linguistic point of view, the name Allah can give the same meaning if we use:

•	All of its four characters

•	Three characters

•	Two Characters

•	Or the last character

To illustrate this unique phenomenon:

If we say Allah; it means the Great name of the Lord, the Creator.

If we deduct, subtract or take away the first letter Aleph, then we get three Characters (Lam, Lam and Haa) which is pronounced as: Lillah and means: To Allah.

If we deduct the first two letters Aleph and Lam, then we get two Characters (Lam and Haa) which is pronounced as: Lahu and also means: To Allah.

If we deduct the first three letters Aleph, Lam and Lam then we get only one Character; the last one (Haa) which is pronounced as: hu and it means: Him.

This unique linguistic phenomenon indicates that the name Allah can give the same meaning by using all of its four characters, three characters, two Characters or one character.

The name God does not have this phenomenon; which is not applicable for any name but Allah.

God the one Supreme Being, the creator and ruler of the universe.

If we deduct the character G, we will get od

Od in dictionary means:

An imaginary force which in the past detained to include all environment and to manifest itself in magnetism, mesmerism, chemical action, etc

Also, od means a person who has taken an overdose of a drug, esp. one who has become seriously ill or has died from such an overdose.

And it means also, to die from an overdose of a drug

.

If we deduct the characters G and O, we will get d which is the fourth letter of the English alphabet, and it is used as a contraction of had, did and should.
