Muslims refer to the Creator of the Universe using the name Allah. In fact, when referring to God, the name Allah is used worldwide by all Ar abic-speaking people, Jews, Christians, and Muslims. As a native English speaker, it is uncommon to hear someone refer to God in a foreign language. But we must remember, English is a foreign language to much of the world’s population. English is a West German ic language which is less than 2,000 years old. Before English existed, people prayed to God using various languages. Jesus spoke Hebrew; some scholars say he also spoke Aramaic; thus, he referred to God in what a native English speaker would consider a “for eign language.” According to the Bible, Jesus called upon God using the name Eloi. (Mark 15:34)

A yau, akwai harsuna kusan 7,000 a duniya; kuma al'ummomi suna ci gaba da yin addu'a ga Allah cikin harsuna da yawa banda Turanci. Saboda haka, idan wani Krista mai magana da Sifaniyanci ya ambaci Allah da sunan Dios, babu wanda zai ɗauka cewa yana nufin wani ubangiji na al'ummar Hispanic. Maimakon haka, mutum mai adalci yana fahimtar cewa Dios na nufin Allah. Hakazalika, a harshen Larabci, Allah na nufin Allah.

Today, almost 7,000 languages exist in the world; and societies continue to pray to God in many languages other than English. For this reason, when a Spanish-speaking Christian refers to God using the name Dios, no one assumes he is referring to a deity specific to the Hispanic com munity. Rather, the fair-minded person understands that Dios refers to God. Similarly, in the Arabic language, Allah refers to God.
