@@inquisitivemind007 You’re missing the point. The Qur’an EXPLICITLY acknowledges that pagans worshipped Allah (God), which is why it tells them to only worship Him ALONE-and not part of their false pantheon. He is the only true & original deity, taught from the time of Noah, Abraham, and beyond. The Qur’an also mentions how ancient Arabian prophets like Hūd, Sālih, and Shu’ayb came to their idolatrous & polytheistic people with the same message-to worship Allah alone-but were often rejected. The Prophet Muhammad didn’t bring a new religion, but only came to re-affirm the ancient truth of Abrahamic Monotheism that people had forgotten; and he was the final prophet in a long line of messengers since mankind’s inception. If you don’t understand this basic worldview from the Qur’an, then you have truly little knowledge about it.
@@inquisitivemind007 like I said, the Arabs had many ‘gods’ they used to worship. They were descendants of Ismail and they still had aspects of the religion of Ibrahim (the father of Ismail) left in their beliefs/religion/society (whatever you want to call it).

@@inquisitivemind007No you haven't gotten anywhere. You're failing in basic Arabic. Allah is a form of the Arabic word Illah.

Arab Christians and Jews were using the exact same word to refer to God predating Muhammad s.a. Some pagan Arabs might have used this word. It's not an uncommon belief for pagans to believe in one main God and many lesser Gods. Both Greeks and Romans had similar beliefs in this respect. You're acting like Allah was some foreign word that Muslims coined and introduced to the pagans. This couldn't be further from the truth.

From a traditional Islamic view, none of these observations are really new to us since our tradition tells us that Arabs were montheists who knew Allah and followed the religion of Abraham up until the 3rd century CE when one of them called Amr Ibn Luhay introduced idol worship to them. The second thing is that the Quran as well as various hadiths mention that pagan Arabs knew Allah as the creator of heavens and earth but the idols they associated as partners with him were only considered as means to get them nearer to Allah. For example surah 39 says:(O Prophet), it is We Who have revealed this Book to you with Truth.2 So serve only Allah, consecrating your devotion to Him.3 (39:3) Your religion is entirely consecrated to Him. As for those who have taken others than Allah for their guardians, (they say): “We worship them only that they may bring us nearer to Allah. Furthermore,Ibn taymiyyah, a great scholar of ours, confirms this in his book " Majmu' Al Fatawa". So to conclude, jumping to the conclusion that Allah was a pagan god can only occur if one ignores our tradition and the Quran . Therefore muslims have to be armed with 'ilm i.e knowledge to increase their faith and clear any misconception.
@mohamedomri7744 it doesn't matter what the text says....the rocks have the final say and it's clear that the inscriptions about pre-Islamic Allah like this one www.islamic-awareness.org/history/islam/inscriptions/faw shows that Allah was a pagan god first and then it became a monotheistic one.

The fact that they knew him, and I can't stress this enough, is well attested in our tradition and in pre-islamic poetry.

Precisely brought by Abraham, maybe in 2000 B.C then things were changed by people and corrected once again by prophet Muhammad peace be upon him. Just to add one thing, what the text says is important because it was revealed among pagan Arabs and if it had said sth wrong concerning the way they perceived Allah, it would have been called out by them
Just to continue making my point, Jallad mentions two interesting things which corroborate our narrative: The first one is that Allah is not the name of a god but rather means literally the god. The second one is that among these pagans the act of creation is associated to Allah which is exactly what I said in my first comment. However he talks about Noor meaning light and talks about moon's light. An easy answer to that is the fact that light is used in the Quran as well as the tradition as a metaphore to guidance so the man could have easily been asking for guidance. والله أعلم
@mohamedomri7744 Jallad said they were all pagans worshipping at least 50 pagan gods and that's the ones we know of. The corroboration in the Quran shows that pagan Allah became the monotheistic Allah. The onus is on you to prove that the pre-Islamic Allah was monotheistic and not pagan.

Allah means 'The God'. Known to humans since the first man on earth Prophet Adam. All pagan man made religions were invented later Including the the modern day godless Darwinian atheist goo to man religion.
There are 4 sects in Hinduism. During the great flood( of the Indus Valley) , all 4 sects on the western side of the Indus river migrated into western Asia. All 4 correspond with the so called Abrahamic origins.1 Vedism /Brahminsm =Judaism, 2 Shaivism =Islam /Shia Islam, 3 Shaktivism =Catholism, Vaishnavism =Christianity. If you look at the names of figures in all 4 Hindu sects, they correspond with similar names of figures in the west Asian religions.
Arab Christians call God Allah even though their god is Jesus Christ. The word Allah just means the God. If you are an Arabic speaking Jew Yahweh would be Allah for you. And Muslims call the one God they worship Allah. In short, this doesn't prove anything about the God Muslims worship just because pre-Islamic Arab pagans referred to one or more of their gods as Allah.

This belief is right, true, no problem. This Supreme Being is called Allah among all religions. The idols worshippers error was that when someone who is highly regarded as righteous dies, they build for him a status/idol, then they would worship/pray/sacrifice to him thinking that they please Allah by doing so and that they would intercede for them before Allah. Allah sent Muhammad to them with the Quran which informs them that they shall not associate anyone with Allah, worship Allah alone who created you and those before you...etc.
Monotheism is the FIRST RELIGION IN THE WORLD revealed through Prophet Adam, the first human on earth. All other religions are defiled, corrupted versions of divine revelations of ancient prophets of God. Humans went from the worship of the one true God - to gradually worshipping the sun, moon, animals, humans, idols etc etc.

Allah means God in Arabic. Everyone believes in Allah (except atheist). People differ in attributes of Allah. Jews and Muslim worship same God, the God of Abraham. Christian worship Jesus and consider Allah as one of three. Some people are idolaters.
You haven't brought anything new to the table for us in the Muslim world. Muslim scholars have discussed this to death. Adam was created and worshipped one god (Allah) and the people after him strayed from the teachings and they became pagans and started worshipping other gods alongside Allah. The prophets and messengers were sent down to correct the beliefs of the humankind. These prophets and messengers had followers and those followers were later on worshipped by the people who had strayed again after their death. That's why in Islam, the shahada is important. “I bear witness that there is no God but God (Allah - i.e. there is none worthy of worship but Allah), and Muhammad is the Messenger of Allah.” To admit that Allah is the only one true god and deny the other so called deities to be worshipped alongside HIM.
The One that comes after Jesus is the Holy Spirit! Not PDF file Mohammed!!! Jesus is the Truth and the Way. The Holy Spirit is the Strenght, the Wisdom and the Grace
YHWH was a "GOD" worshipped by other people long before the ISRAELITES used that name for their "GOD"... In 1844, the ruins of the ancient city of Soleb in Nubia were excavated by the archaeologist Karl Richard Lepsius who documented the site in detail but did not excavate. In 1907, James Henry Breasted arrived and photographed the site but, again, engaged in no excavation. It was not until 1957 that a team under the archaeologist Michela Schiff Giorgini, excavated the site and found reference to a group of people described as “Shasu of Yahweh” at the base of one of the columns of the temple in the hypostyle hall. The temple was built by Amenhotep III (r. 1386-1353 BCE) and the reference to Yahweh established that this god was worshipped by another people long before the time when the events of the biblical narratives are thought to have taken place.

Arabs are descendants of prophet Ibrahim through his son prophet Ismael. Prophet Ibrahim and Ismael worshipped Allah Almighty and ordered their sons to whorship Allah only. Kaba was built by Ibrahim with Ismael as the first house of Allah. Later Arabs started added other gods and put them inside kaba as there were no prophet came to them to remind them for a long time. Last prophet Mohammad came and removed all those pagans gods and purified kaba as God's house of prayer.

This is your argument in a nutshell: in Arabic, the word Allah means God. Arabic predates Islam. Paganism predates Islam. Hence, Allah (as an entity) in Islam is the same Allah (as an entity) in Arabian paganism. I hope you see why this is nonsense! This is like logic 101?

My friend, your problem is you do not know arabic and stupidly make comments about Islam. Allah means Al-Ilah, which means 'the GOD' in arabic. Ilah means god or Ilahun, gods, so it is pretty normal for arabs to call their gods as 'the god' in their language. There is no argument around here.
@minimumtasvik Really? So why didn't they then in this inscription? Only one God is called Lah and the rest have different names www.islamic-awareness.org/history/islam/inscriptions/faw
@@inquisitivemind007 Bro, Lah is a special name that might be different than Ilah. However, when you say Al-Lah, it does not mean it directly corresponds to Allah. The thing here is that Al- is a definite article. In german they have 'der, die, das'. In other languages, they have similar words. Your name is Inqusitive mind, but unfortunately you are on the surface level. If you would like to prove such a connection, you had to establish the relationship between Lah and Allah though linguistic, historical, and societal contexts. In Arabia, writing was not a comman thing, it had an oral tradition. Thus, If there was a such connection between old gods and Allah, believe me enemies of Islam would use this argument in the early stages, and the followers of Islam would question. Please use more robust and deep arguments. Don't waste your time, become muslim and save yourself.
You are just playing semantics. What you are completely missing or grossly ignoring is that Old Testament or the New Testament in their original forms were revealed by the Creator of the Universe, Elohim/Elah/Allaha in Hebrew/Aramaic or Allah in Arabic. Arabia had people who were followers of Abraham, though in small numbers, who, overtime, strayed from the strict monotheism introduced to them by Abraham. In Islam, we are told from the time of Adam, people were instructed to worship the one true God who created them and the entire universe. So the concept of Godhead didn't start with the advent of Muhammad (peace and blessing of Allah be upon him) Are you an atheist or a believer in some religion?

@@inquisitivemind007 You clearly lack an understanding of paganism, no offence. Idolatry is the act of creating images of deities to symbolise the said deity. That's like saying since Idols (rather people have made idols) of Saraswati exist she cannot be trancendental power in the form of Shakti.

Allah means God in Arabic. Everyone believes in Allah (except atheist). People differ in attributes of Allah. Jews and Muslim worship same God, the God of Abraham. Christian worship Jesus and consider Allah as one of three. Some people are idolaters.
Before the Quran was sent in Saudi they were pagans and they believed in God or Gods and Allah was the word for God.
You haven't brought anything new to the table for us in the Muslim world. Muslim scholars have discussed this to death.
Adam was created and worshipped one god (Allah) and the people after him strayed from the teachings and they became pagans and started worshipping other gods alongside Allah.
The prophets and messengers were sent down to correct the beliefs of the humankind. These prophets and messengers had followers and those followers were later on worshipped by the people who had strayed again after their death.
That's why in Islam, the shahada is important. “I bear witness that there is no God but God (Allah - i.e. there is none worthy of worship but Allah), and Muhammad is the Messenger of Allah.”
To admit that Allah is the only one true god and deny the other so called deities to be worshipped alongside HIM.
The One that comes after Jesus is the Holy Spirit! Not PDF file Mohammed!!!
Jesus is the Truth and the Way.
The Holy Spirit is the Strenght, the Wisdom and the Grace
YHWH was a "GOD" worshipped by other people long before the ISRAELITES used that name for their "GOD"...
In 1844, the ruins of the ancient city of Soleb in Nubia were excavated by the archaeologist Karl Richard Lepsius who documented the site in detail but did not excavate. In 1907, James Henry Breasted arrived and photographed the site but, again, engaged in no excavation. It was not until 1957 that a team under the archaeologist Michela Schiff Giorgini, excavated the site and found reference to a group of people described as “Shasu of Yahweh” at the base of one of the columns of the temple in the hypostyle hall. The temple was built by Amenhotep III (r. 1386-1353 BCE) and the reference to Yahweh established that this god was worshipped by another people long before the time when the events of the biblical narratives are thought to have taken place.
You’re missing the point. The Qur’an EXPLICITLY acknowledges that pagans worshipped Allah (God), which is why it tells them to only worship Him ALONE-and not part of their false pantheon. He is the only true & original deity, taught from the time of Noah, Abraham, and beyond. The Qur’an also mentions how ancient Arabian prophets like Hūd, Sālih, and Shu’ayb came to their idolatrous & polytheistic people with the same message-to worship Allah alone-but were often rejected. The Prophet Muhammad didn’t bring a new religion, but only came to re-affirm the ancient truth of Abrahamic Monotheism that people had forgotten; and he was the final prophet in a long line of messengers since mankind’s inception.
If you don’t understand this basic worldview from the Qur’an, then you have truly little knowledge about it.

@@celestialknight2339 so you're telling me that Al-Lah mentioned among the 3 pagan gods in this inscription is the Abrahamic monotheistic one? www.islamic-awareness.org/history/islam/inscriptions/faw
@@inquisitivemind007 No, I’m telling you that the pagans used to worship Allah with false association alongside other divinities (shirk), whereas the Prophet revived the ancient Abrahamic truth of pure monotheism, which had been corrupted & shrouded at that time.

Arabs are descendants of prophet Ibrahim through his son prophet Ismael.
Prophet Ibrahim and Ismael worshipped Allah Almighty and ordered their sons to whorship Allah only.
Kaba was built by Ibrahim with Ismael as the first house of Allah.
Later Arabs started added other gods and put them inside kaba as there were no prophet came to them to remind them for a long time.
Last prophet Mohammad came and removed all those pagans gods and purified kaba as God's house of prayer.
Abraham (Ibrahim) never went to Saudi Arabia. Kaba temple was built by arab pagans. Mo was prophet of Satan.
I dont understand what hes trying to say, its meant to be a single thread of belief from all religions
if we look up any arabic bible we will see allah
if we are looking for patterns, and moreso, to challenge the quran origins, we should try with a challenge to code 19 imho
This is your argument in a nutshell: in Arabic, the word Allah means God. Arabic predates Islam. Paganism predates Islam. Hence, Allah (as an entity) in Islam is the same Allah (as an entity) in Arabian paganism.
I hope you see why this is nonsense! This is like logic 101?
Quran and islam itself taught. The pagan worshipped 3 daughters of allah.
What they do not recognize. That mean allah himself is included as pagan worship 😂
@enockt6218 This inscription was made way before the life of Jesus so they can't say baseless things like Al-Lah comes from the Christian word for God etc. www.islamic-awareness.org/history/islam/inscriptions/faw
lol, you people are lost. educate yoursleves
you ppl are being deliberately…ignorant. ALLAH was always worshipped, & it is documented that the pagans actually worshipped him as well as worshipping others.
My friend, your problem is you do not know arabic and stupidly make comments about Islam. Allah means Al-Ilah, which means 'the GOD' in arabic. Ilah means god or Ilahun, gods, so it is pretty normal for arabs to call their gods as 'the god' in their language. There is no argument around here.
@minimumtasvik Really? So why didn't they then in this inscription? Only one God is called Lah and the rest have different names www.islamic-awareness.org/history/islam/inscriptions/faw
@@inquisitivemind007 Bro, Lah is a special name that might be different than Ilah. However, when you say Al-Lah, it does not mean it directly corresponds to Allah. The thing here is that Al- is a definite article. In german they have 'der, die, das'. In other languages, they have similar words. Your name is Inqusitive mind, but unfortunately you are on the surface level. If you would like to prove such a connection, you had to establish the relationship between Lah and Allah though linguistic, historical, and societal contexts. In Arabia, writing was not a comman thing, it had an oral tradition. Thus, If there was a such connection between old gods and Allah, believe me enemies of Islam would use this argument in the early stages, and the followers of Islam would question. Please use more robust and deep arguments. Don't waste your time, become muslim and save yourself.
You are just playing semantics. What you are completely missing or grossly ignoring is that Old Testament or the New Testament in their original forms were revealed by the Creator of the Universe, Elohim/Elah/Allaha in Hebrew/Aramaic or Allah in Arabic.
Arabia had people who were followers of Abraham, though in small numbers, who, overtime, strayed from the strict monotheism introduced to them by Abraham. In Islam, we are told from the time of Adam, people were instructed to worship the one true God who created them and the entire universe. So the concept of Godhead didn't start with the advent of Muhammad (peace and blessing of Allah be upon him)
Are you an atheist or a believer in some religion?
