Who is Allah?
Who is Allah? The proper terminology used, in Islam, for God is “Allah.”. There are a number of reasons for having a special word for God. First of all, the term “Allah” means, in Arabic, the one and only universal God or Creator and Provider of the universe. Notice here I am emphasizing “the one and only.”.
Is there only one God in Islam?
First of all, the term “Allah” means, in Arabic, the one and only universal God or Creator and Provider of the universe. Notice here I am emphasizing “the one and only.” So a Muslim would not simply say, “There is one God.” That would not be as accurate or as strong an expression as saying ‘the one and only God’. Allah means The One God.
Why is there no female version of Allah?

Is Allah the only one to be worshipped?
Loosely translated, yes. However, linguistically the term actually means ‘the only One to be worshipped’. It is around this deeper meaning that the concept of Monotheism in Islam is centred. Furthermore, the word Allah contains a depth that makes it incomparable to any other word and thus perfectly suited to the One supreme being.
