It was explained to me that the name is Al-Lah, meaning, “the god”. My sister’s Persian friend says, “If the god is willing, I shall do thus and so”.

Yes: "Al-lah" means "The" God, i.e. the Only God. The same term is expressed very similarly in Hebrew, a related Semitic language, as in "Elah Elahin," The God of gods. You can see the resemblance between "Allah" and "Elah"
