It is mentioned in the New Testament in the Gospel of Mathew, chapter 27 verse 46 as well as Gospel of Mark, chapter 15 verse 34 when Jesus (pbuh) was put on the cross.
Jesus cried with a loud voice saying "E’-Li, E’-Li la’-ma sa-bach’-tha-ni?" that is to say, ‘My God, My God why hast Thou Forsaken Me?’ Does this sound like Jehovah! Jehovah! why has thou forsaken me? Does it sound like Abba Abba? The answer is ‘No’. Hebrew and Arabic are sister languages and if you translate "E’-Li, E’-Li la’-ma sa-bach’-tha-ni" into Arabic it is ‘Allah Allah lama tarak tani’ does it sound similar?
This statement of Jesus (pbuh), "E’-Li, E’-Li la’-ma sa-bach’-tha-ni" is preserved in its original Hebrew in each and every of its translation which is available in more than 2000 different languages of the world and in each and every of them, "Allah" is present.

According to Quran Isa (SAW) was a prophet his birth was miraculous and so was his departure from the world, he was not crucified he will come back again in this world before dooms day, how prophet Mohammad (SAW) knows this, it was through the revelation from Allah Bari Ta la, this revelation clear the confusion among believer about Prophet Isa (SWA) worldly end, coming to what he cried or the person who was put on cross is not important, the message from Allah is very clear, I am the one and the only one who decide, dear friends there is no point in debating controversial statements, if the source is weak. We all (believer) knows after Adam and Eave hundreds rather thousands of prophet and messengers come in this world to guide mankind to-wards the right path and they were supported by scriptures, it is now up to us to think with a cool mind what for we are here and what will happen after, are we strong enough to prove our worthiness in front of our creator.

This is a red herring. Arabic only has one word for "god" and that is Allah. Your statement would also be true if we applied it to the Pledge of Allegiance. Does this mean Mohamed must have been American? Or that America was founded on Islam?
Your point about Hebrew and Arabic being both Semitic languages is a point that actually unravels the legitimacy of Islam, because nowhere in the Bible is the Arabic name for God used. Furthermore, Islam didn't even begin until a thousand years after Jesus, so it is nonsensical to try to infer Jesus calling out to Allah on the cross when the very word "Allah" was a direct reference to the Jewish God Almighty, Islam not having been delivered to Mohamed by his demon yet.
Hope this helps!

For the sake of argument, lets assume that's true. We know that Allah didn't help Jesus because Jesus obviously died on that cross. There are only two possible reasons why Allah didn't help Jesus:
1. Allah did not help Jesus because Allah is not all powerful. If Allah is not all powerful than Allah is not god.
Or
2. Allah did not help Jesus because Allah is evil.
So either Allah isn't god and doesn't diverse to be worshiped or Allah is evil and doesn't deserve to be worshipped.

Jesus probably pronounced God's name as "Yahweh" or "Yehowah". In English, we would pronounce it as "Jehovah".
The Bible never uses the name "Allah" in connection with the Almighty. It's not exactly wrong to call the Almighty by the impersonal "God", just as it's not wrong to call one's offspring "Child". If we want a familiar and close relationship, however, it makes sense to use the personal name of someone we love. The Scriptures encourage us to use God's personal name.
The important thing is to use God’s personal name in whatever language you speak, rather than insisting upon the impersonal! The name “Yahweh” is certainly preferable to the non-name “God” or “Lord”. If you speak English, feel free to use the name "Jehovah".
(Psalms 83:18) That people may know that you, whose name is Jehovah, You alone are the Most High over all the earth
(John 17:26) [Jesus said] I have made your name known to them and will make it known, in order that the love with which you loved me may be in them

Allah is a false God.
Jesus cried out to His Father, God in Heaven.

That may be the Arabic translation but not the english or any other language. Christ spoke aramaic not arabic. E'li E'li not Allh. That is no more correct that our translation God. God is not the Ancient moon god from islamic countries.

uh, ok. If what you say is true, then Arabic is an old language. Congrats. God goes by many names. It isn't the name of God that is important, it is the acceptance of Jesus' sacrifice on the cross for our sins and his resurrection defeating death forever.

Jesus cried out to his Father. God is holy and cannot tolatate sin. When he cast the sin of the whole world on christ, he took his eyes off him.Christ and God were always together, but when the above happened , god took his eyes off him . Read Isaiah 54:7-8.
My friend Jesus said to be careful of the false prophets & you shall know them by their fruits. Be on guard Javed see the fruit, you will know who came to cheat,kill & destroy.

No, it wasn't Jesus on the cross (Muslims know this). Allah does not forsake his prophets. The guy who shouted "My God, my God, why have you forsaken me?" was some poor guy who ended up on a cross and he doesn't know himself why he's there (that's why he asked "why?") Jesus would know why would he not? They crucified the wrong guy (meanwhile Jesus was hanging out with his true disciples including his wife Mary the Tower (The Magdalene).
