Allah

From Arabic اللّٰه (allāh), contraction of اَل (al-, “the”) + إِلَه (ʔilah, “deity”); cognate with the Aramaic אלה (aláh) and אלהא (aláhâ), and Hebrew אֵל (él), אֱלוֹהַּ / אֱלֹהַּ (elóah) and אֱלוֹהִים \ אֱלֹהִים (elohím); ultimately from Proto-Semitic *ʾil-.-.

2. (Islam) God, in Islamic or Arabic contexts

   What is the Shia Islamic view on the attributes of Allah?

   • 1998, Anne Rice, The Vampire Armand, New York: Knopf, →ISBN, →OL, page 273:

     We are too much men and women; we are yet formed in the image of the Creator, and what can we say of Him with any certainty except that He, whoever He may be—Christ, Yahweh, Allah—He made us, did He not, because even He in His Infinite Perfection could not bear to be alone.

While in Arabic اللّٰه (allāh) is used generically to refer to God in Jewish, Christian, and Islamic contexts, current English usage almost always restricts the corresponding English term Allah to Islamic contexts only. Various newspaper style manuals recommend translating the Arabic word in English as God, as this better reflects Arabic usage, but the term is often left untranslated in Islamic contexts. Thus either “Allah is great” or “God is great” may be seen.

1. (Islam) Allah
2. (Christianity) God

   Akulah TUHAN (YHWH), Allahmu (your God), yang membawa engkau keluar dari tanah Mesir, dari tempat perbudakan. (Keluaran 20:2)^[1] ― I am the LORD your God, who brought you out of the land of Egypt, out of the house of slavery. (Exodus 20:2)

In Indonesian translations of the Bible, Hebrew אֱלֹהִים (elohím) is translated into Allah instead of ilah in contradiction with Indonesian Islamic terminology. The usage by Islam and Christianity contexts reflected the Arabic اللّٰه (allāh) which is used generically to refer to God in Jewish, Christian, and Islamic contexts, unlike the controversial Malaysian Standard Malay Allah for Christian usage.

When viewed as a proper noun – the predominant Islamic view – the orthographic rules require writing the oblique cases of the word with an apostrophe before the case suffix. When viewed as a common noun, spelt almost unanimously with a capital “A” out of respect, no apostrophe should be inserted.
