The Muslim god is referred to as Allah while in Christianity he is not given a name simply God.

The name Allah is from Arabic word elah which means a god or something to worship.

AnswerIn Christianity, God is regarded as a Trinity - One God, yet in three persons. In Christianity, God the Father is God, the Holy Spirit is God, and Jesus is God the Son, as, in scripture, Jesus Christ is regarded as God incarnate (God in human form) because of his claims, miracles, and his sacrifice on the cross, resurrection and ascension. Just as a human would have a body, mind and spirit, or just as one person could be regarded as a work colleague, a husband and a father, so the Christian God is one person and yet three.

However, Muslims regard God as just one aspect - God, and regard Mohammed as the principle prophet, and not divine as is Christ, reducing Jesus Christ and the Holy Spirit to 'also rans'. Therefore, whilst Muslims still call God 'Allah' which means simply 'God' the Gods in nature are very different.

We both refer to God as God. There are differences for language though. In Arabic God is usually referred to as Allah.


There are though actually 99 names given to god in the Qur'an.


The prophet Muhammad once said: "Verily, there are ninety-nine names of God, one hundred minus one. He who enumerates [and believes in them and the one God behind] them would get into Paradise."


The names range from things like : "The All Beneficent", "The Ever Forgiving" to "The Bringer of Death" and "The Avenger." If you search for the 99 names of Allah or the 99 names of god, you can check them all out.


Hope that helped.
