Similarly, for some Christians, Allah is just another name for the one God of the universe. For one thing, Allah is a distant, remote being who reveals his will but not himself. It is impossible to know him in a personal way. In his absolute oneness there is unity but not trinity, and because of this lack of relationship, love is not emphasized. Indeed, for the Muslim, Allah cannot have any associates.
When we look at Yahweh, however, who is the God of the Bible, we see a different kind of deity. The Jews realized that Jesus was referring to himself as God and took up stones to stone him for what they believed was blasphemy. This link between Jesus in the New Testament and the burning bush in the Old Testament demonstrates the unity of the one God manifested to both the Jews and the Christians. This cannot be said of the Muslim God because Muslims reject the deity of Jesus and therefore reject much of what the New Testament says about Jesus.
We also find that the Bible portrays Yahweh in contrast to Allah. For example, Allah is considered to be too holy to have personal relationships with man, but Yahweh is often described as a loving God interested in our personal struggles. Yahweh is also depicted as unchanging and One who assures the salvation of the faithful.
Finally, because there is unity in the Trinity with the one God also being three persons, God can be described as the Father of Jesus. Some scholars want to emphasize the similarities between Yahweh and Allah, and point to a common belief in a monotheistic God who is Creator of all things, omnipotent and merciful. Both religions also claim that God has sent prophets to reveal His will and produce scriptures to guide our lives.

March 07, No other form of existence has ever originated from Him, thus, there is no other. There is no other god or form of existence from which He could have originated. Nothing in the micro or macro planes of existence is equivalent or in resemblance of Him. He is AHAD. Some answer this question by explaining the god they have created in their heads, and some by referring to the Allah disclosed by Muhammad saw.
So that we can clearly see that Allah has nothing to do with the concept of god with which we have been indoctrinated for ages. Therefore, the One denoted by the name Allah, who is Ahad , is the possessor of the attributes above. That is:.
They are merely different compositional qualities and attributes of the same ONE.
