Dictionary on Allah
Allah (Arabic) (from al the + ilah god; cf Hebrew eloah) The one God of Islam, analogous to the Hebrew Jahweh. The pre-Moslem Arabic patron of Mecca, the god Hobal called Al-lahu (the god), was retained as the supreme god in Moslem theology; the other gods were transformed into demons. The unity and singularity of Allah is one of the primary beliefs of Islam. (SD, BCW) . .

The manuscript, produced originally in the 1930s and '40s, is currently being revised and expanded by the Editorial Committee.
