muslims are not pagans. we dont bow down to idols, stars, moon, sun, animals and humans. our heads will bow down only to ONE GOD. Allah when translated from arabic to english means SUPREME BEING.
Al-Ikhlas | 4 verses | Absoluteness سورة الإخلاص
Sura #112 | Makkah
1 Say: He is Allah, the One!
2 Allah, the eternally Besought of all!
3 He begetteth not nor was begotten.
4 And there is none comparable unto Him.
and we have a clear concept of who God is, a clear definition for God.
Al-Fatiha | 7 verses | The Opening سورة الفاتحة

1 In the name of Allah, the Beneficent, the Merciful.
2 Praise be to Allah, Lord of the Worlds,

4 Master of the Day of Judgment,
5 Thee (alone) we worship; Thee (alone) we ask for help.
6 Show us the straight path,

Allah ( Ilah ) is the name for God in Aramaic the language that Jesus spoke.
Jesus never prayed to God or even referred to God using any word but Allah.
People who say that Allah is a false God do not know what they are talking about, and they are most certainly not following the true teachings of Jesus.
Love and blessings.

All I might desire to do to disprove your theories is ask you this: why is it, that once Arabic-speaking Christians prefer to call upon God, they pray to "Allah"? For each and all of the time they spend in church, rejoice Easter and yule, etc., have they been worshiping your imagined "moon god" or some thing else the entire time, for 1000's of years? And why is it that for the time of Bibles printed in Malaysia use the call "Allah" for God, even to the element the place there are criminal disputes happening between the (Islamic) government of Malaysia and the Catholic Church there over the church's use of the call "Allah"? (source for this one secure) lack of expertise might desire to fairly be bliss.

what do Arab Christians and Jews call their God in Arabic?
pick up an Arabic translation of the Bible and see what the word God is translated to in Arabic.
I'm not Arab and I worship Allah. what does this mean?

It doesn't mean anything, b ecause it's not true. Allah is the one true God--the same One worshiped by Christians and Jews!! Allah is just another name for Him/Her.

It refers to the moon symbol of Islam, which some say stems from the moon god(s) in pre-Islamic paganism. Muslims, of course, dispute such claims, similar to how Christians dispute claims of their religion's pagan origins.
