Allah is Jehovah...
-
Peace to all,
GOD is called by many names, one of which may be "JEHOVAH" (YHWH). The Jews have called the god "Adonai" (The Lord) throughout history, and they were considered GOD's "chosen people". The only people who use the actual word "allah" are Arabs; others call upon GOD according to their own language. The word "Jehovah" is an English rendering of "Yahveh", which means "He who exists" (or in some cases, "He who causes to exist". Therefore, the word itself, even though not clearly stated in the Quran, can be used to call upon GOD. The most important view is to look at the supreme god ("allah" as the ONLY god, submitting in true monotheism. As long as this is the emphasized factor, then we are all worshipping the one god, whether we call Him "allah", "Jehovah", "eloha"/"elaw", "adonai", "al-rahman al-raheem", or simply "GOD" - they are all referring to the same being, the one god. May He guide us to truth and understanding...
Peace,

I'll show you why
You get it now?
What get it?
I have all the time think That Yahova yahweh is names of God or attributes of God.

Exactly, very well stated.
I don't know why some people here must make things so complicated(Muslimtruthrevealed) and directly defend their opinion with sweat and elbows hmmNo one was talking about to change the names of God, so why so stressed to put this kind of name down?

MariaYou're speaking of a tetragrammaton spelt with a Yodh, Heh, Waw, Heh, and does not have any pronounciation.
Have a look at the confusion regarding the pronounciation

Salam FAR,
Yes, we've already discussed the fact that there is much debate over the pronounciation of YHWH in this thread. That does not take away from the fact that no matter how you pronounce it, it is a name of Allah.

This is what Allah states.....
Who were the Messengers/Prophets supplicating to and invoking?
Those were among the prophets or whom Allah has blessed from the offspring of Adam and from those whom We carried with Nooh and from the offspring of Ibraheem and Israel and from those whom We guided and We chose, when the ayats/signs of Ar-Rahman were recited on them they fall down prostrating, weeping.
AFTER that what happened?
Successors substituted/contradicted/ Fakhalafa AFTER the (Messengers), then came successors who invented/devised/ adaAAoo the SALAH / PRAYERS and follow their desires, so soon they shall encounter error.
They began to invoke other deities, gods and men!
Yet for....
Except those who repent and believe, and work righteousness. for these will enter the Garden and will not be wronged in the least,-
Gardens of Eternity, those which (Allah) Most Gracious has promised to His servants in the Unseen. for His promise must (necessarily) come to pass.
These will NOT invoke, recognize or hear any reference to other deities, no Yahweh, no Jehovah......
They will not there hear any vain discourse, but only salutations of Peace. And they will have therein their sustenance, morning and evening.
La yasmaAAoona feeha laghwan /
La yasmaAAoona (imperfect, plural, Verb Form VI = Like Verb Form III, reciprocal but the Initiator (Subject) of the act is unknown (i.e. doesn?t exist)) They cannot hear, they are NOT invoking a deity that cannot assist them or doesn?t exist
Laghwan means vain idle, frivolous, nonsense
Then Allah addresses the argument directly.....
"Lord of the heavens and of the earth, and of all that is between them; so worship Him, and be constant and patient in His worship. DO YOU KNOW OF ANY WHO IS WORTHY OF THE SAME NAME AS HE?"

This is a pointless argument. It would make sense if they were calling upon the god AND another god named "Jehovah", but this is not the case. In the instance of their system, "JEHOVAH" is the one and only god, the same as "ADONAI" is to the Jews, and the same as "ALLAH" is to the submitters. There is no "other" deity, there is only one god...
"Lord of the heavens and of the earth, and of all that is between them; so worship Him, and be constant and patient in His worship. DO YOU KNOW OF ANY WHO IS WORTHY OF THE SAME NAME AS HE?"
Where did you get that faulty translation? The question asked is, "Do you know any who equals Him?", or even, "Do you know any who is like Him?" The word "name"/ism is nowhere in that verse at all. From studying the scriptures, we learn that "allah" is not GOD's "name" at all, at least not in the way many perceive. It is a title, and it describes His "godship", or His right to be worshipped. The same is the case with the word "jehovah" - if it is used as a reference to the only god, then He is the same god as our god. A person doesn't have to use the Arabic word "allah" to be referring to the one god. To many people, the proper noun "God" is sufficient, especially if they don't speak the Arabic language. So, what's wrong with the title "JEHOVAH" if it's referring to the one god ("allah"?

Prove this translation is 'faulty' as you claim....
"Lord of the heavens and of the earth, and of all that is between them; so worship Him, and be constant and patient in His worship. DO YOU KNOW OF ANY WHO IS WORTHY OF THE SAME NAME AS HE?"
Prove it from the language of the Quran, Quranan Arrabiyyan NOT from the English
I will assist you....
The 'Hal Accusative' is governing the entire ayah...
- Who/What deity deserves to be worshiped?
- Who/What deity is referred to as 'Lord of the Heavens and the Earth and all between"
- Who/What deity is worthy of constant and patient worship?
In fact this is a 'continuation' Verbal Sentence, stated by the angels, read the PREVIOUS ayah 19.64
The angels are asking US the question.
I await your response

There is no proof necessary. You have added the word "name"/ism into the verse with the intent of proving your point, even though it is incorrect. There is no mention of the word name/ism anywhere in that verse, and that's evident just by reading it.

What does this have to do with you adding the word "name" into the verse? The point is GOD is beyond having "one name" ascribed to Him. So, anything referring to any of GOD's qualities or His supremacy can be regarded as a title for the god, including "jehovah", "adonai", or "allah". They all refer to the same one god, "alrahman alraheem". It is innovation to say we can't refer to GOD in a way not described in the Quran, and the scripture doesn't say anything like this... Considering 1964, 65 in the message, read the passage in Arabic, and see if you find the word "name"/ism anywhere in the verse. I seriously doubt you will...

Unless someone is penciling in in their personal Quran and trying to use it as evidence, I agree that it is just not there. ;D

The arrogance of some people and the lack of humility as it relates to the Quran, unbelievable.
(The angels say.) "We descend not but by command of thy Lord. to Him belongeth what is before us and what is behind us, and what is between. and thy Lord never doth forget,-
Its a Verbal Sentence, the angels are "announcing" "Our Rabb, The Lord of the Heavens and the Earth and all things between, is their any deity worthy of this designation?....."
"Lord of the heavens and of the earth, and of all that is between them; so worship Him, and be constant and patient in His worship. DO YOU KNOW OF ANY WHO IS WORTHY OF THE SAME NAME AS HE?"
samiyyan meaning "another deity as Allah" , an active participle and requires a Subject, that Subject is Allah and all of Allah's attributes, designations and 'names'.
Again, take the time and learn the language of the Quran, its easy.

Stop adding in your own personal opinions. In the language of the Quran, it implies that there are none that equals Him, and there are not who compare to Him. Plainly, it is saying "there is no god but GOD". This doesn't have anything to do with "names" and "titles". According to you and your scripture, Mohammed is called "alraheem", a title given only to GOD. So, even based on your own logic, you are wrong.
If I say, "There is only one me," this is not the same thing as saying, "I'm the only person with my name." This is a completely different concept, and you are adding words into the message. Even though GOD is the only one worthy of being called a god (as a title), this is not what the verse is saying. It's implying that there are no other beings comparable to Him, and He is the only one of His stature/in His position. "La elaha ella Hoo".
Take the time and learn the language of the Quran, its easy.
I agree. Maybe you should follow your own advice...
