Fariq Naik – Why do we say Allah not God

Why do we Muslims prefer calling Allah with the Arabic word Allah

instead of the English word called?

Because a person can play mischief with the English word called. For

example, if we add as to God, so it becomes gods, that is a pool of

God. There is nothing like the pool of Allah, who Allahu Ahad

says Allah, the One and Only

if we add the access to God, so it becomes Goddess that is a female

God, there is nothing like female Allah or male ally in Islam. Allah

has got no gender.

If we add mother to God, so it becomes God Mother, there is

nothing like Allah mother or Allah Amin Islam.

If we are father to God, so it becomes Godfather, there is

nothing like Allah Fada or Allah ban Islam.

If you prefer extend to God, so it becomes sin God, that is a fake

the reason we Muslims prefer calling Allah with the Arabic word
