Because we're not Aramaic. I'm not at least. If your name was Paul, would you want me calling you Pedro because that's Paul in Spanish? I don't know if that's really Paul in Spanish, but you catch my drift.

First Allaha is spelled Allah, and second not all religions are keen to except a similar end. I knew already that Allah recommend God in Arabic and that i consistently believed that Allah and God are a similar. I have excepted the very truth of the call difficulty yet i'm Christian and that i comprehend the Muslim faith very a lot and that i have acquaintances who're Muslims and they comprehend me and hear to my recommendations besides. yet like I reported not each and every man or woman is going to believe me or with that theory and so that they are going to have there own critiques on that count number so don't be wonder at what the solutions you acquire. contained in the bible is say don't be wonder at what you spot less than the sunlight accordingly what you study!

Muslims claim that the name Allah can be found in the Bible. This is no different than what the Jehovah's Witnesses do for the name Jehovah. Allah is not called Yahweh once in the Koran but neither is Yahweh called Allah in the Bible. So they can't be the same God. Neither is the word Elohim which is applied to Yahweh over 2,500 times in the Bible used in the Koran. Neither is he called I Am, which He said to Moses would be His name forever.
The God of the Bible identifies himself as the God of Abraham, Isaac and Jacob. Jacobs name is later changed to the name Israel, being the father of the 12 tribes of Israel. The God of the Bible calls Jerusalem the city of David and that the Messiah would descend from his lineage. Neither does the God of the Bible does not mention Mecca or Medina but instead Jerusalem 800 times. Yet Jerusalem is not mentioned in the Koran, which the Muslim claims as there own.
The God in the Bible is called the God of the Jews, an impossibility with Allah. They are called his chosen people, but they are not Allah's chosen. Allah commands the Muslim to not take the Jews or Christians as friends, Sura.5:51 disdains the Jews. Mohammed said, “The last hour will not come before the Muslims fight the Jews, and the Muslims kill them.” (Mishkat Al Masabih Sh.M. Ashraf pp.147, 721, 810-11, 1130). So how could Israel inherit the land or any of God's promises from Allah, if he is their God. Clearly he is not the same God of the Bible.
Muslims trying to prove their position from the Bible point to the Old Testament with the word alleluyah, interpreting the first portion of the word alle as Allah. The word [H]alleluyah is not a compound Hebrew word. It is not two words but a singular word meaning praise to Yahweh. (alle- praise, lu-to, yah-Yaweh). The beginning of the word is Hallel meaning praise. This has nothing to do with an Allah, and the last syllable of the word is a reference to Yahweh the God of the Bible, this is hardly any evidence for their assertions. They are also confusing Aramaic with Arabic. This is not unusual, as Muslims will often take words and meanings set in another language and culture and adopt them for proof of their own book or religion.

First off, I do not believe that Jesus spoke Aramaic. Second, there is no word in Aramaic that actually means G*D, but several that approximate it. My knowledge of Arabic is somewhat more limited, but I believe that in Arabic also there are several words which stand in for the unspeakable, ALLAH simply be the most common. Third, Christians think Jesus is G*D. Christians also seem to believe that their Bible (Greek word) is the divine word of G*D in every language it has been translated into. The phrase, clerical error, is a gift from Christianity.
Stop picking on these guys, they still think Jesus was a pale-skinned, long-haired, blue-eyed, blonde. Besides, how can you argue with people who on Easter celebrate by eating ham in memory of presumably pious Jew.

According to the Bible, God's name is Yhvh. Some have chosen to pronounce it Yahvah or Yahweh or Yahveh or Yehovah, or JEHOVAH.
By calling God "God" we're actually just letting him share a name with all the false dieties. That doesn't seem fair. "God" in aramaic may very well be Allaha, but "God" isn't God's name anyway, so it doesn't really matter.

Allah is not the GOD of Israel. This was not the original Lord's Prayer. This is a fraud. The Lord's prayer has its roots in Jewish thought and prayer. Jesus was Jewish. Aramaic is a language that was used by Jews but also some arabs/syrians.

The name for God has been, at different times:
El
Elohim
Yahweh
Jehovah
Adonai
and the not-to-be-pronounced name referred to as the Tetragrammaton
In Spanish it's "El Senor" or "Dios"
In Latin, "Deux" or "Deus"
In German "Pater," "Vater" or "Gott"
We pray to God because that's our English word for Him. If the Gospel is for all people, then it should be for all languages. You wouldn't expect a speaker of Russian to pray in French, would you?
Besides, Allah was originally Al-Lah (the god), the counterpoint of Al-Lat (the goddess). Muhammed reformed that line of thought into a monotheism.
