According to Arab historians, Ismail and his descendants resided in Mecca, and they were monotheists, believing in the One God, the Lord of Abraham, Allah. Then, after the succession of centuries, the Quraish gradually brought idols from different tribes around Mecca in order for people to make pilgrimages to it, and they placed them around the Kaaba, whose pillars Abraham and Ismail raised, The Qurayshites believed that the supplication of these idols would bring them closer to Allah, and they maintained their faith in Him, and this is what the Qur’an also talks about.
The word allah or its synonyms were used throughout the Middle East at the time to describe God in different languages and religions

Hello, I was reading the article about Allah and seen this " Along with Allah, however, they also worshipped a host of lesser gods and “daughters of Allah.”[9 " that is not true about the word Allah. You do not have the same wording in the Arabic translation of the same article. Please it is very important to change so it does not mess lead people that want to learn. This is my email address if I can help in anyway jazzazi0007@yahoo.com. Thank you for what you do. 2600:1700:5261:1080:3D67:66CA:C72C:173A ( talk) 04:14, 8 January 2022 (UTC)
God states in the Qur’ān that He has certain attributes such as hearing, sight, hands, face, mercy, anger, coming, encompassing, being above the Throne, etc. Yet, He has disassociated Himself from the limitations of human attributes or human imagination. Correct Islāmic belief requires faith in the existence of these attributes as God has described them without applying to them any allegorical meanings or attempting to explain how a certain quality could be (while this is known only to God) and without comparing them to creation or denying that He would have such a quality. His attributes are befitting to Him alone, and “There is nothing like unto Him.” (42:11) [1] — Preceding unsigned comment added by Andaathe ( talk • contribs) 23:15, 21 April 2022 (UTC)

According to Amira El Zein's "Evolution on the concept of jinn", Jawad Ali states: "The scholars mention that Allaha is the name of a large serpent, and that al-Lat (the well-known idol) was originally named laha, as if they wanted to call it serpent. The name of God Almighty is derived from this word. In the pre-lslamic legends, it is mentioned that the Arabs of the Jahilivah worshipped the serpent (1970. vol. 6:727). I would have added this to the etymology section as an alternative to the roots in "elohim". However, since this article is GA, and this adds just one or two sentences into an already established and assessed structure, I would like to know, how others think about this addition.-- VenusFeuerFalle ( talk) 13:02, 23 May 2022 (UTC)
The result of the move request was: no consensus. While good arguments have been made on both sides, I don't really see a consensus emerging after a week of discussion, and nobody seems to have addressed the fact that we don't in fact have two articles with the same title here. ~ Anachronist ( talk) 00:29, 7 June 2022 (UTC)

Allah → Allah (word) – I believe the title is confusing and many people may think that "Allah" refers to God in Islam.

Could you add the flag of The Islamic Republic of Afghanistan because that is also a flag that had Allah’s name and takbeer and shahaadah on it. It does not matter whether the government is recognised nor in power, it matters that it had Allah’s name on it. 92.40.173.221 ( talk) 19:13, 11 February 2022 (UTC)
The article mentions falsely, that Allat is thought to be the feminine forum of Allah. But there is no feminine form of Allah, no plural or miniature. The word God in English, accepts changing into the plural by adding the suffix - s, i.e. Gods. By adding the suffix - dess, it changes into feminine. Furthermore adding the suffix -ling, it changes into a miniature, i.e. Godling. This is not possible with the Arabic Allah. Whereas Allat is in fact a pre-islamic pagan deity worshiped by the Arabs in the pre-islamic era. Actually, Allat is referred to in the Qur'an as such,forming together with Al 'Uz'za and Manat, the pre-islamic Arab Pagan Trinity. 102.185.24.30 ( talk) 05:16, 18 January 2023 (UTC)
Under Christianity, the first sentence reads a little clunky to me. I suggest:
""Today's Christian Arabs use the term "Allah" to refer to "God," except for Jehovah's Witnesses, who add the biblical name "Jehovah" (يهوه) to the title "Allah."

Under this heading are statements that need to be rewritten, for example: "God is not a part of the Christian Trinity. God has no parents and no children." This implies that God in general is not part of the Christian Trinity and cannot have be both a Son and Father at the same time--Christians would disagree with that. It should read "Allah is not a part of the Christian Trinity. Allah has no parents and no children." This would clarify that it is talking about the Muslim belief. It could also say, "The Quran states that God is not a part of the Christian Trinity, and God has no parents and no children." It is not a problem to quote the Quran or Islamic sources in order to talk about their beliefs, but when statements on Wikipedia are made that do not clarify a specific belief is being discussed, it appears as if the writer is biased toward that viewpoint. 2601:245:C100:5E5C:6C65:3748:BCF5:F4BD ( talk) 15:40, 25 July 2023 (UTC)
The body of Allah has been described in the Qur'an, are there any statues of the creature.
