Yes. And if you have seen a Bible printed in Arabic, the word for God is "Allah"--which only makes sense, as "Allah" is Arabic for God.

Allah means god in Arabic you dumb d*ck..
and JIHAD and all that 50 virgins sh*t is not true..its some made up bullshit that a Muslim conservative said..so he can get people to believe him..
Muslims are not allowed to kill, its against the Muslim religion..and its against the Muslim religion to hate another religion cause they think its wrong..there is no right or wrong in religion..
Muslims dont force their religion upon anybody..there is no Muslim missionary..who tries to convert people..its against the religion..people just convert and become Muslims by searching it..and knowing about it..there are alot of people converting to islam now a days..even asians and russians..if you read the qu'oran you will see it makes sense..the qu'ran is thicker than the bible and was the first book to come from God..then christians took out what they didnt like about it and called it the bible..
go do your research..

Almighty GOD is ONE, call HIM by any name. But it should be a Beautiful one WITHOUT any Mental picture.
What we say that there is ONE GOD means HE is the same GOD for Muslims, Christians, Jews, Hindus, Athiests, Buddhists and all mankind.
Because GOD is ONE and for all mankind.
Therefore, if you say ALLAH, ELI, ELIAH, BRAHMA, all refer to GOD. We can best understand this from the Hindu Scripture example.
Hindus say GOD is Brahma. Which if translated into English means 'The Creator' and if translated into Arabic means 'Khaliq'
Therefore if you call Almighty GOD as 'The Creator' OR 'Khaliq' OR 'Brahma' it is ONE and the SAME.
BUT...
The trouble arises when the Hindus ascribe features to GOD that are NOT worthy for GOD. For example, they say Brahma is the GOD who has 10 heads, so and so hands, etc...
And when the Christians say, 'GOD sacrificed HIS ONLY son for us'... Now why should GOD have a son?? For looking after HIM when HE gets old or retires? Why ONLY one son?
And these goes against the fundamentals of Islam, Judaism and Christianity (As per the Gospel of Barnabas) and even True Hinduism itself (Vedas are against this)...
Therefore, All religions speak about Monotheism BUT the True essence of Monotheism has now remained in Islam only as...
1. The Church has fabricated the Trinity and mis-lead the Chirstians from the True message of Jesus Christ (Peace Be Upon Him) (The Gospel of Barnabas was the original un-adulterated Bible, Paul corrupted and fabriacted Trinity which itself is against Jesus Christ (PBUH)'s original teachings)
2. The Hindus do NOT read the Vedas and practice Idol worship which is against their own scriptures.

Yes. French-speaking Christians in Quebec say Dieu! Imagine using the word for"God" in your native language, instead of English! Shocking!

Yes, of course they do!
To say "Allah" by a Arabic Christian does not mean the same "Allah" to Muslims. It DOES mean "God", this is language and culture here....what is your point?

Not true; they use "Jesus" and they all teach the truth that he is the Son of God, Messiah.
Muslims (and Islam) say Jesus was a prophet but they reject all His teachings ....that is hypocrisy.
They reject Christ's diety;
they deny his claim to be the Son of God;
they deny his death on the cross...
they deny His resurrection..
They deny Jesus is the Christ/ Messiah...
In fact, the Quran says : "Allah has no son".
Need I say more...?
Don't be deceived. The Islamic god is totally different than the God of Jesus Christ.
The Bible calls Muhammed and those like him false prophets:
