00:00:00 --> 00:00:03
			Allah is the most appropriate name for God
		
00:00:03 --> 00:00:03
			in the Quran.
		
00:00:04 --> 00:00:06
			Is this name Allah mentioned in other religious
		
00:00:06 --> 00:00:08
			scriptures besides the Quran?
		
00:00:08 --> 00:00:11
			In the Bible, God is referred to as
		
00:00:11 --> 00:00:12
			Elohim.
		
00:00:12 --> 00:00:17
			In Hebrew, Im is added as respect.
		
00:00:17 --> 00:00:19
			It is the plural of honor and respect.
		
00:00:20 --> 00:00:23
			In the Bible, God is referred to as
		
00:00:23 --> 00:00:27
			Elah and the Bible with the commentary that
		
00:00:27 --> 00:00:30
			is edited by Reverend C.I Scofield which
		
00:00:30 --> 00:00:31
			is also known as Scofield Bible.
		
00:00:32 --> 00:00:36
			In this Bible, Almighty God, he is called
		
00:00:36 --> 00:00:41
			as Elah and Hebrew and Arabic are not
		
00:00:41 --> 00:00:46
			western languages but rather they are eastern sister
		
00:00:46 --> 00:00:46
			languages.
		
00:00:47 --> 00:00:49
			So the Bible with commentary that is edited
		
00:00:49 --> 00:00:53
			by Reverend C.I Scofield, the word Elah,
		
00:00:54 --> 00:00:58
			it is spelled as A-L-A-H
		
00:00:58 --> 00:01:01
			and it is pronounced as E-L-A
		
00:01:01 --> 00:01:02
			-H, Elah.
		
00:01:03 --> 00:01:06
			In Arabic, it is Allah, A-L-L
		
00:01:06 --> 00:01:07
			-A-H.
		
00:01:07 --> 00:01:10
			So the difference between Arabic and Hebrew as
		
00:01:10 --> 00:01:12
			far as Allah is concerned, in Arabic, it
		
00:01:12 --> 00:01:14
			is A-L-L-A-H, in Hebrew,
		
00:01:15 --> 00:01:17
			in the Bible, it is A-L-A
		
00:01:17 --> 00:01:17
			-H.
		
00:01:18 --> 00:01:21
			So the difference is only the single L.
		
00:01:21 --> 00:01:25
			Since Hebrew and Arabic, they are Semitic languages,
		
00:01:26 --> 00:01:30
			therefore the correct pronunciation should be Allah and
		
00:01:30 --> 00:01:33
			not Elah and this word Allah, it is
		
00:01:33 --> 00:01:34
			even mentioned in the Bible.
		
00:01:35 --> 00:01:37
			It is mentioned in the Gospel of Matthew,
		
00:01:38 --> 00:01:40
			chapter number 27, verse number 46 and in
		
00:01:40 --> 00:01:42
			the Gospel of Mark, chapter number 15, verse
		
00:01:42 --> 00:01:45
			number 34, when Jesus Christ, peace be upon
		
00:01:45 --> 00:01:46
			him, when he was put on the cross,
		
00:01:46 --> 00:01:48
			he cries out, Allah, Allah, why have you
		
00:01:48 --> 00:01:49
			forsaken me?
		
00:01:49 --> 00:01:51
			Oh God, oh God, why have you forsaken
		
00:01:51 --> 00:01:52
			me?
		
00:01:52 --> 00:01:55
			Does Allah, Allah, why have you forsaken me
		
00:01:55 --> 00:01:57
			sound similar to Jehovah, Jehovah, why have you
		
00:01:57 --> 00:01:58
			forsaken me?
		
00:01:58 --> 00:01:59
			And the answer is no.
		
00:02:00 --> 00:02:02
			Allah, Allah, why have you forsaken me?
		
00:02:02 --> 00:02:04
			If you translate it into Arabic, it is
		
00:02:04 --> 00:02:07
			Allah, Allah, why have you forsaken me?
		
00:02:07 --> 00:02:10
			Hebrew and Arabic, they are Semitic languages.
		
00:02:11 --> 00:02:15
			So therefore, Elah, Elah, lama sabakhtani, in Arabic,
		
00:02:15 --> 00:02:18
			it is Allah, Allah, lima tarakhtani.
		
00:02:19 --> 00:02:21
			And the translation of this is oh God,
		
00:02:21 --> 00:02:22
			oh God, why has thou forsaken me?
		
00:02:23 --> 00:02:26
			Elah, Elah, lama sabakhtani, it is similar to
		
00:02:26 --> 00:02:28
			Allah, Allah, lima tarakhtani.
		
00:02:29 --> 00:02:33
			And in fact, this phrase, Elah, Elah, lama
		
00:02:33 --> 00:02:36
			sabakhtani, it has been maintained in no less
		
00:02:36 --> 00:02:40
			than 2,000 translations of the Bible even
		
00:02:40 --> 00:02:42
			though this is a Hebrew text yet in
		
00:02:42 --> 00:02:46
			the translations of the Bible it this phrase
		
00:02:46 --> 00:02:49
			has been maintained from this we clearly understand
		
00:02:49 --> 00:02:52
			that even though the Bible it is corrupted
		
00:02:52 --> 00:02:56
			yet this phrase it is maintained in its
		
00:02:56 --> 00:02:58
			original form yet in the Bible it is
		
00:02:58 --> 00:03:01
			mentioned regarding Tawheed regarding the oneness of Allah
		
00:03:01 --> 00:03:02
			subhanahu wa ta'ala it is mentioned in
		
00:03:02 --> 00:03:06
			the Bible regarding the beloved Prophet Muhammad may
		
00:03:06 --> 00:03:07
			peace and blessings be upon him and this
		
00:03:07 --> 00:03:12
			word Allah it is even mentioned in Sikhism
		
00:03:12 --> 00:03:14
			Guru Nanak he used the word Allah which
		
00:03:14 --> 00:03:16
			in order to refer to Almighty God and
		
00:03:16 --> 00:03:18
			this word Allah it is also mentioned in
		
00:03:18 --> 00:03:20
			the Hindu scriptures in Rig Veda book number
		
00:03:20 --> 00:03:23
			two hymn number one verse number two the
		
00:03:23 --> 00:03:26
			word Allah has been used which if pronounced
		
00:03:26 --> 00:03:30
			correctly it is Allah and in fact there
		
00:03:30 --> 00:03:32
			is a separate Upanishad by the name of
		
00:03:32 --> 00:03:37
			Allah Upanishad wherein Allah has been used several
		
00:03:37 --> 00:03:40
			times God is referred to as Allah several
		
00:03:40 --> 00:03:44
			times in although Upanishad so we realize that
		
00:03:44 --> 00:03:47
			the scriptures of the major world religions in
		
00:03:47 --> 00:03:51
			these scriptures it is mentioned regarding Allah subhanahu
		
00:03:51 --> 00:03:54
			wa ta'ala even though these scriptures have
		
00:03:54 --> 00:03:56
			been changed but yet in the remnants of
		
00:03:56 --> 00:03:59
			these scriptures the word Allah subhanahu wa ta
		
00:03:59 --> 00:04:01
			'ala in the remnants of these scriptures it
		
00:04:01 --> 00:04:03
			is mentioned regarding Tawheed that is the oneness
		
00:04:03 --> 00:04:04
			of Allah subhanahu wa ta'ala it is
		
00:04:04 --> 00:04:07
