Allah

Allah in Arabic

Allah (Arabic: اللَّهْٰ) is the common name for God in the Arabic language.[1] It is similar to Ha-El, which is the name for God in the Hebrew language, and Alaha-i, which is the name for God in the Aramaic language. Muslims commonly use the word Allah for God.[2] Sometimes, people who speak Arabic still use the word Allah when they speak English. In Islam, Allah is Merciful and Allah is the one who loves his followers.
