Allah (Arabic: الله, Allāh, IPA: [ʔalˤːɑːh]) is the standard Arabic word for "God".[1] While the term is best known in the West for its use by Muslims as a reference to God, it is used by Arabic-speakers of all Abrahamic faiths, including Christians and Jews, in reference to "God".[2][1][3] The term was also used by pagan Meccans as a reference to the creator-god, possibly the supreme deity in pre-Islamic Arabia.[4]
From Wikipedia. Put this up due to the hoo hahs of the issue of the word being used to describe god in The Herald.
Let them go to court and fight it out. At least from here you get to see that all Abrahamic faiths believe Allah is the supreme one.
