Well OK up to a point. "Allah" is the Arabic word for God, and Arabic speaking Christians called Him that long before the year 622 of the Christian era, and still do.

But the Muslim "Allah" does not exist. Or perhaps is the devil.

Allah is the name of one of the many pre-mohammed idols that were kept in Medina (I think). Mohammed picked it to be his one "true" god. It turns out allah was some sort of moon god before mohammed but its still lingers on....remember all the crescent moons in arab flags....there you go

Intersting. So you do worship Allah?

Is there much difference among Allah, Jahweh, Jehovah, Waheguru, Atman, or whomever? Ultimately, God is Love, in every religion.
