See post #12:
"Allah" is the name of the Islamic god ---- it was never the Arabic word for God. The Muslims have a perfectly good word for god and they use it with great regularity. They say, There is no ilah [god] but Allah [the name of their god], and Muhammad is His Messenger.
Many Arab Christians have been conned and intimidated by their Muslim masters into translating the word "Lord" in their Bibles into the word "Allah". Surely they know better, for the Hebrew word "YHWH" is translated by the apostles into the Greek word "Kurios" in the New Testament and hence the word "Lord" in English.

I see.
I will make a MENTAL note to NEVER call my God, “allah”.
