My point here is that you can pursue the Moon God angle if you want, but it may not make the point you want it to make, since the Christians too used the word "Allah" for 500+ years before Muhammad raided his first caravan.

And Arabic-speaking Christians (e.g. Melkite and Assyrian Christians in the Middle East, as well as millions of Christians in Indonesia and Malaysia) still to this day use the word "Allah" for the God of the Bible. As in, "We believe in Allah, the Father and the Son and the Holy Spirit")
