Probably Abdul abul-bul amir!

All the gods seem to come from Arabia.....and speak arabic! Must be something to do with aridity and sand!

It wouldn't seem to matter here as most people know who you are talking about.

Allah is the most correct name,

1 – There is no plural of it, You can make gods from god but even in Arabic (being Arabic word) there is no plural of Allah
2 – There is no feminine of this, You can say Goddess but nothing for Allah.

in reality- its whatever the original dillusional bored author came up with on that sunny afternoon back in the 1100's.



the same guy who said there were no dinosaurs, and that the earth was only a few thousand years old.


i accept of course , thats just satans plan to push us off the scent.

The biblical god is called Yod Heh Vow Heh - it's four letters with no vowel sounds - this has been translated as Jehovah or Yahweh.

Just being pedantic Keyplus - the question referred to the Bible specifically, and even as a non Christian I know there's no reference in that book to any name like Allah.

(I do realise that that's the name given to him by people of your religion, but that's not what was asked...)

Whicker - If the God of the Bible is different from the God Muslims know (Apart from few bits and pieces added) then OK I would take my answer back. Then someone may say tomorrow why Muslims believe in Jesus, Moses, Abraham and all the other messengers (pbuat) talked about in Bible.

But I know what you mean. Thanks

In the Bible the divine name of God is represented by the English letter YHWH

There is a disagreement by scholars as to how to pronounce this in English as Hebrew had no Vowles in it they had to be added.

Some say Yahweh keeping the English equivatant letters as the Hebrew.

Hebrew had no letter J and most Bibles have replaced the Y with J so the name Joshua would be Yahowshu‘a. We have accepted the English Joshua. So many have rendered the YHWH of God as Jehovah
