It doesn't matter what the Arabic word for God is. The Allah of Islam is not the Allah/God of the Jews and Christians.

Any devout Muslim will tell you that.

BTW, isn't the word Allah a contraction of "al-ilah," the chief god of the Kaaba. The moon god.

“BTW, isn’t the word Allah a contraction of ‘al-ilah,’ the chief god of the Kaaba. The moon god.”

Have you looked into the etymology of God’s English title? It’s not much different.

You will not find any Christian missionaries to Arabic speakers who would fall for this ridiculous screed. But it must be true because someone somewhere on the Internet said so, right?

Confidence and incompetence are a bad combination.

No one who worships the moon calls their idol “Allah.” It is exactly this kind of nonsense that needs to be corrected.

But I won’t hold my breath. I’m just sharing for those who actually are interested in facts, truth, and accuracy rather than made up fake religious memes.
