Answer 1

Well damn, now I'm convinced that there IS a god.

Answer 2

Allah simply means God in Aramaic, the language used back in 1st Century Judea, and the language used in the film (Arabic is a very similar language, and the Arabic word for God is also Allah).
Remember that Muslims worship the same God as Christians and Jews, however differences remain on Jesus and Muhammad.

Answer 3

I'm not able to watch the clip right now, but check the word used. In Aramaic, the generic word for god is 'Allaha'. This sounds similar to 'Allah' but it isn't the same. (Aramaic was the language of Christ and his apostles and the original language of the gospels.)

Now I have managed to listen to the first two clips. The supposedly Aramaic language used in the PoC film is a bit suspect and this clip reinforces my impression. The passage in question is from John's gospel 16v7 in the Syriac Peshitta version this reads, 'If I do not go, Parqleeta does not come to you, if I will go, I will send him to you.' Parqleeta is a Greek loan word meaning a 'helper' who is identified a few verses later in 16v13 as 'the Spirit of Truth'. Nowhere in this context from John is God mentioned, so (surprise!) the film does not match the book. Also, we have manuscripts of the Peshitta gospels in the British library which date from around AD 480~ 500 about a century before Islam appeared, so the text could not have been altered after Islam appeared to remove inconvenient references to that faith.

For Andi C. Maltese is a modern dialect of Aramaic. Thank you for drawing attention to that!!

Answer 4

Erm its actuaslly alalla, its Aramaic, NOT Arabic! Aramaic sprakers to mthis day still use the term for god. IAt predates the Arabs and the Arabic language by literally thousands of years.

The Assyrian Christians of Iraq STILL speak Aramaic as a first language to this day, the term is NOT Allah, as ive explained.

The arabic language, as well as Hebrew, are not as old, and are heavily influenced by Aramaic!

Answer 5

I will do as you request. But I am wondering if you believe that other religions, and philosophy for a code of living, which is Buddhism, are understanding poorly, What information to enlighten states of ignorance toward Islam, you would like us to correctly understand.
Which of course, is fair enough.
I am often questioned about Buddhism and try to offer answers which may explain our philosophy, but oftentimes, any information I offer, meets more reluctance to be understood, than criticism.
As Buddhist, this makes no difference to me, because as Buddhist, I neither proselytize, nor attempt to explain anything, unless I am asked. To me, Buddhism is simply a code or state of practice, according to the teachings of that philosophy .. and we consider Buddha, no more than an enlightened teacher. Not a God. That I find preferable to me.

Answer 6

The word "Allah" is mentioned in the bible, as well. It is the Arabic word for God.

Answer 7

Allah is the arabic word for god. Incidentally, it is also the maltese word for god and the maltese are predominantly roman catholics.

Answer 8

Allah is one of the names of Durga, the consort of Lord Shiva and mecca is just but a tem His shivaling.

Answer 9

Its a FILM..Mel Gibson is " Famous" for putting some humorous twists in his Movies..like in Braveheart he had a " Gay" prince and the Gays in America were asking for an Apology from him for portraying his man as weak and Useless.
Justsyd says the Word " allah" appears In the Bible..Maybe in her Bible.

Answer 10

The word Allah means god in both languages, but the Allah that is referred to in the Quran (spelling?) is not the same God of the Christian bible. If you're wondering if this proves they are the same, it doesn't. It's just a word.
