    Peace Kaiokenred;

    As you stated "The word Allah means there is no God" how do you translate the expreession "LAA ILAAHA";

    Brother Bigmo, likely our brother Kaiokenred is confusd?

      There is no God except the not God? Do you mean no God but the One who does not need worship? Or just not God?

      There is no god at all, that's what I'm trying to say. Allah is not a god, the concept of Allah is the opposite of a god. The real meaning of a god is " one who is invoked ", That is as you see, extremely religious and can't possibly describe Allah, You do not invoke Allah, also a god is an outside force that controls reality, while Allah manifests all reality from the inside-out, you can confirm it if you want by using Quantum Mechanics

        Please could you be more clear in "you can confirm it if you want by using Quantum Mechanics". Is Quantum mechanism another Quran?

          How about you closely examine Classic Arabic like Badar Kanwar does?

          I am an arabic speaker, I wish to know what classical arabic you are talking about (I really do)...

          ...most arabs refute this by saying that the christians (they even use it to describe the trinity, including saying Allah-Al Ebn (Allah the son) and the jews who are arabs still call there God Allah, because that is the term we use, like Khuda in Farsi.

          Why not use Al-Ilah is a valid question, however first of all from a phonetic point view repeatedly saying Al-Ilah sounds strange to an arab speaker I personally find it strange using the phonetic of Al-El
          Saying
          Alhamdu-le-al-Ilahi
          Subhan-al-Ilah

          The i sound effect in the middle sounds strange. I guess this is sort of like didn't instead of did not, and even in modern English saying gonna and wanna, or ain't that something. I don't know what to tell you, it just has this same tone to me.

          Now I am no expert my self, but from a phonetic term, I can't see my self everytime saying Allah, having this awkward pause for al-ilah

          , this is sort of like any language where you don't explain things by the grammar of it, but by the flow of the language when spoken, for example in english I rarely figure out why something sounds foreign to english because I know grammar, but because that just sounds like broken english I don't know if you get my drift.

          I had problems with the term Allah, because of how people sanctify the word, as if Allah, is the name of God...and yes some resources explain it that way, I was taught in my Arab country that Allah is a contraction, they could've been wrong, or just telling me their version. But I personally lived with Christians and saw there use of the word Allah, and as I said someone running around saying Al-Ilah would sound bizarre unless you are being very detailed, like an English speaker saying didn't you hear me I said I do NOT care.

          I personally also seen in Canada, that people who don't speak arabic nativley but are muslims, have this relationship with the term Allah, which sounds like they have to say it Allah saying khuda for example would be false. I don't know, I am sure they were raised that way in their countries, but most arabs don't have a stigma refering to Allah as God, or whatever the language requires.

          I do believe there is nothing sacred about the term, and according to historians, Arabs even before islam used the term to represent the idea of the god they thought is the ultimate God sort of speak.

          I personally think, that the word was contracted because it sounds phonetically demanding, and impedes an Arabian way of speaking but that is my opinion
          Wa Al Ilah A'lam... (Sounds so strange lol)

          And I am stumped by how Allathi got into explaining anything, I read your post I am having a lot of difficulty understanding what you are trying to say, but as I said, I am interested to know .

          Edit Also as alot of previous repliers, mentioned, God refers to him self as Allah, Rab, Ilahon Wahed.
          573

          221

          And honestly, you are the one who is sounding like SOME Sunnis, saying wait till a 'certain member' comes back, exactly the inability to defend your own thoughts, and refering the matter to someone else, and saying (wait till he gets back he will handle you).

            It's science, do you blindly follow the Quran or you follow it because it makes sense? If the Quran said people are blue would you believe it just because it said so? Would that mean the Quran was divine?

              How can God refer to him self as Allah when god doesn't exist? And how can the fictional character God refer to himself as Allah when the people who created religion for their own greed didn't know what Allah really was?

              By Classic Arabic I mean the one used at Muhammad's time, which is obviously different, the Al Ilah thing is the weakest argument about Allah not being god, there are many more

                Kaiokenred, your every post amazes me. It also confirms my understanding that Rabb continue to guide his creation, who want to be guided to his truth irrespective of Quran. I am attending to a family member who had liver transplant. Hence may not be able to log on for extended times for sometimes in future. But will try to catch up in future with important issues belonging to write up about Allah soon.

                  I am asking about the except part. There is no God at all except? What?

                  Allahu allathi la ilaha illah hu. How do yu translate that?

                        A part this subject on the vocable allah, i will really want to know the performance of your QM to explain phenomena, as it seems to me that Plank wrote on light has nothing to do with the reality...

                          We need first to understand that word "God" in English as well all equivalent concepts in other languages are referring to title not a name. God means "A deity or entity which is worthy of human." The author of Quran denied this concept by word Allah= One who is not a deity for worship. Please think this differencing concept of word God is cause of most, if not all conflicts in the world always. Why would a Universal entity create such a chaos? Is there a chaos in any of other his laws? However, concept of no deity for worship if accepted will bring humanity together.

                          However, to understand our Rabb one can look around to find affirmations. But there are some seeming conflicts might confuse one. However, if were to pay attention to himself/herself. Think if I could or do exist all by myself? One will find answer as big resounding "no". This shall confirm existence of Rabb (a sustainer, maintainer, foster and accomplisher).

                              It's even worse, most linguistics agree the word God comes from some word I forgot from some language I forgot, that means "that which is invoked", mushrikeen much?

                                Good going Kaiokenred, origin is word god in English is not know with certainty. It is new title/name. Its origin some attribute to Sanskrit word "hu" meaning "call upon, invoke, implore".

                                Arabic word illah's meaning is certainly preserved as "a deity for worship and adoration".

                                Script of Quran so far appears preserved. Its meanings seem preserved in archives of language. Need to find these. Quran is simple but not easy to understand in its current form, especially with the noise surrounding it. If there is any interpolation of Quranic text, I am sure it shall become manifest as rest is understood.

                                  When translating you should also use the old quran even in Arabic. The modern Quran published today is different from the original one, and by that I'm saying the arabic words were altered

                                    Peace Kaiokenred.

                                    Did anyone before badar understand the Koran? Do you believe in the last prophet or any prophet/ messenger?

                                    Is anyone else going to understand/translate it or is it exclusive to Badar alone?

                                    How long before we get the whole translation from Badar?

                                    Is there any chance that Badar is human and he may make mistakes in his translation?

                                      Peace Kaiokenred.

                                      Did anyone before badar understand the Koran? Do you believe in the last prophet or any prophet/ messenger?

                                      Is anyone else going to understand/translate it or is it exclusive to Badar alone?

                                      How long before we get the whole translation from Badar?

                                      Is there any chance that Badar is human and he may make mistakes in his translation?

                                      Since we do not understand, explain to us please.

                                      I know Muhammad was a prophet, not sure about others. And yes other before Badar understood the Quran, and then it got corrupted and very few people if any remained that knew the real meaning.

                                      Is anyone else going to understand/translate it or is it exclusive to Badar alone?
                                      Well whoever wants can examine Lane Lexicon and translate it, but Badar is the only translator who's totally free of concepts that came from hadiths and other corrupted stuff, at least from the translators I know

                                      How long before we get the whole translation from Badar?
                                      Why ask me? Also remember that Badar has a life.

                                      Is there any chance that Badar is human and he may make mistakes in his translation?

                                      Sure, but just like his signature says, he's always open to correct them no? It's not like he's making any major mistakes either

                                        Please reflect on what you are saying. You are making Badar an "Idol"

                                        ... In fact their idols inflict great pain upon them ( invent laws/rules , Write their own words, Add/ takeaway?) and confuse their religion for them?
                                        My advice is

                                        73 You shall follow what is revealed to you from your Lord. ( Only the word of GOD!) Do not follow any idols. ( Do not follow the words of men!) Rarely do you take heed!?

                                        Peace
