1. A person can play around with the English word ‘God’:

Muslims prefer calling Allah (swt) as Allah, instead of the English word ‘God’. The Arabic word ‘Allaah’ is pure and unique, unlike the English word ‘God’ which can be played around with.

2. God + s = Gods:

If you add the alphabet ‘S’ to ‘God’, it becomes ‘Gods’, that is plural of God. Allaah is One and Singular. There is no plural of Allaah.

3. God + dess = Goddess:

If you add ‘dess’ to ‘God’ it becomes ‘Goddess’, that is a female God. There is nothing like male ‘Allaah’ or female ‘Allaah’. Allaah has no gender.

4. God + Father = Godfather:

If you add the word ‘father’ to ‘God’, it becomes ‘Godfather’. "He is my Godfather" i.e. he is my guardian. There is nothing like ‘Allaah Abba’ or ‘Allaah father’ in Islaam.

5. God + Mother = Godmother:

If you add the word ‘mother’ to ‘God’ it becomes ‘Godmother’. There is nothing like ‘Allaah Ammi‘ or ‘Allaah mother’ in Islaam.

6. Tin + God = Tingod:

If you put ‘tin’ before ‘God’ it becomes ‘Tin-God’ i.e. a fake God. There is nothing like ‘tin Allaah’ or ‘fake Allaah’ in Islaam.

7. Allaah is an Unique Word:

‘Allaah’ is an unique word, with which can neither conjure up a mental picture, nor can it be played around with. ‘Allaah’ is the name mentioned for the One Unique and True God, in the Qur’an. Therefore, Muslims prefer calling God, ‘Allaah’. But sometimes while speaking to non-Muslims we may have to use the inappropriate word ‘God’, for Allaah.
