SOME LOGIC OF USING “ALLAH” Instead of “GOD”



'SOME LOGICS OF USING “ALLAH” Instead of  “GOD”
The Muslims prefer calling the Supreme Creator, Allah, instead of by the English word ‘God’. The first reason is that the word Allah is used for the supreme creator in Quran.
Besides this the Arabic word, ‘Allah’, is pure and unique, the English word ‘God’,  can be played around with.

1)If you add ‘s’ to the word God, it becomes ‘Gods’, that is the plural of God. Allah is one and singular, there is no plural of Allah.
2) If you add ‘dess’ to the word God, it becomes ‘Goddess’ that is a female God.

3)If you add the word ‘father’ to ‘God’ it becomes ‘God-father’. God-father means someone who is a guardian. There is no word like ‘Allah-Abba’ or ‘Allah-father’.
4) If you add the word ‘mother’ to ‘God’, it becomes ‘God-mother’. There is nothing like ‘Allah-Ammi’, or ‘Allah-mother’ in Islam.
5) Allah is a unique word.If you prefix tin before the word God, it becomes tin-God i.e., fake God.

Allah is a unique word, which does not conjure up any mental picture nor can it be played around with. Therefore the  Muslims prefer using the Arabic word ‘Allah’ for the Almighty. 
We can call Him by any name, but should be a beautiful name.
“To Allah belong the most beautiful  names” ( Surah Ta- Ha 20:8)'
