I know that there are two views on this matter ..
1. those who dont mind ; and
2. those who are against it.
my main stand is that even if you dont mind the Christians using the word Allah, I am sure you should know by now that they are capable of arguing and debating their so called right ON THEIR OWN.
Why should we the MUSLIMS go all out supporting them
even at the expense of our relationship with our Muslim Brothers and Sister ?
Why oh Why ... ???
Looks like the Christians need not do anything .. they can just sit and relax and let their "Muslims brother(s)" fight for them and help them out ....
I know .. at first I had the same idea too .. what the fuss is all about for the Christians to use the word Allah to refer to the same Allah .. but hey ... after some thoughts I realise when they refer to what we (Muslims) perceive as the same Allah ... its actually NO !. They cant be referring to the same Allah because the Allah that they are referring too .. is Allah who they claimed to have a son !!!!
We all know that from the beginning the Christians and the Jews have been using the word Allah longgggg before the coming of Islam .. but when Rasulullah SAW came ... Allah had clearly announced that the ONLY religion for HIM is Islam (
Inna ad deen i'nda Allah al Islam) and that HE clearly said that what they the Christians are saying are all lies .... about him having a son and all ...
since the Christians and the Jews opted out Islam ... it is my opinion that they have no right to refer Allah as the same Allah that they believed is their GOD, because Allah had denounced them ...
and how we the Muslims could let them DEMAND to use the word Allah when we know how Allah himself had refused them ..
its common sense
I know the debate between Islam and Christianity would never come to an end. Whatever their arguments are on this matter we should just let them be .. because we the Muslims know that the only guidance can only come from HIM, not us .. no matter how much we love them
"inna ka la tahdi man ahbabta"
just let them be
"lakum deenu kum wa liya deen"
Muslims .... who are for the Christians to use the word Allah should really re asses again your view .. how come you can support the people whom your LOVED ONE denies !!!???
WHERE IS YOUR LOYALTY ????
let them fight this matter on their own ...
we the Muslims have enough other issues to fight among ourselves
*Ok I know many hate that political party who suddenly are on the streets to show their anger .. I guess thats the only issues they feel they can champion the Malay Muslims for their so called Ketuanan Melayu .. its never about Islam in the first place. Had it been about Islam they must have been camping in the streets to protest since 1951 ......
