Aslm Alkm Bro. Reed!

You hit the nail on the head.The contraction of “al” and “ilah” is the only sensible and correct meaning of Allah which means God,Dios,Deux, Mungu, Eeebe etc,depending on what language you are speaking. The bone of contention is: Whom do you mean by Allah or God? Do you mean Jesus(pbuh),Buddha, a monkey, the moon, the sun? etc. Another common mistake made by those Muslim by birth, converts and non-Muslims is that Allah is the proper name of God-e.g. Jesus(pbuh),Mohamed(pbuh) etc.

Assalamualaikum wa rahmatullahi wa barakatuh

No, I think thats garbage, such a thing would be well known, and Allah is more knowing

Shias don’t do it I think.

As I plan to marry then insh’Allah and I have come across many ‘traditional views’ on this jazak’Allahkhair
