  1. Ilah

    ʾIlāh is an Arabic term meaning "deity" or "god". The feminine is ʾilāhah; with the article, it appears as al-ʾilāhah الإلاهة. It appears in the name of the monotheistic god of Islam as al-Lāh, translated, that is, "the god". In some cases, it is used by Arabic-speaking Christians and Jews, although not as frequently as other titles, such as Rabb, or "Lord" - a title also used by Muslims for Allah - similar to the Hebrew use of Adonai, which is the most frequently used by Jews of all languages, along with HaShem or "the Name". Amongst Christians, Yasu - an Arabic transliteration of the name of the Christian Jesus - Yahweh, or Shaddai, translated, that is, "Almighty", are common, with some other names and titles generally borrowed as transliterations from Hebrew, Aramaic, and Greek. In Malaysia, it is illegal for Christians, Jews, or any other non-Muslim to refer to their God as "Allah". ʾIlāh is cognate to Northwest Semitic ʾēl and Akkadian ilum. The word is from a Proto-Semitic archaic biliteral ʔ-L meaning "god", which was extended to a regular triliteral by the addition of a h.

    Arabic Calligraphy reveals there is no associative evidence between 'al-ilah' and 'allah'. The word 'allah' is therefore a proper name and not a proper noun, and would be deemed erroneous to use it to refer to 'Gd' if the user is a non-muslim.

    Kindly crosscheck the transliteration. Plural of ilaha is ãlihat. The feminine is ilãhat. Allah being a contraction of Al ilah is also disputed. Thanks.
