Jesus said Allah, not Deus

I don't think Muslims should be too upset with the recent High Court's decision allowing Christians to use the word "Allah" in reference to God.

In fact, all Christians, in my humble opinion, should from now on use the word "Allah" and worship Allah and nothing else but Allah.

Now that they are free to use it, all the churches should also use the word "Allah" to describe God.

It's the right thing to do, actually.

It's because, Jesus, as mentioned in the Bible, did just that.

Yes, Jesus or Isa as we Muslims call him, referred to God as Allah and not Deus or Jehovah or whatever.

Since Christians said they are followers of Jesus, it's only right that they do the same.

I'm not a religious expert, so let this mat saleh theology scholar explains this to you (you have to view this video on the web version of this blog, mobile can't),

And since we are at it, I also think that Christians should be encouraged to be more Jesus-like.

As Jesus (who is actually a Jew) was, Christians should worship Allah the way he did, be circumcised (males only), don't eat pork, etc etc.

Oh, and Jesus also didn't pray to himself.

He prayed to Allah.

Really, not a single straight forward verse in the Bible that quoted Jesus as claiming divinity.

There are a lot though in the good book which said he only prayed to Allah.

Again, let the mat saleh theology scholar explains it,



So, Muslims (and everyone else) shouldn't get upset over this whole thing.
Really.

Cheers.

  1. Betul tapi masalahnya,mereka kata Jesus itu anak tuhan. Tuhan disini siapa yer..Allah..Dalam Islam, Allah tiada anak.ini Akan mengelirukan.
    Selama beberapa tahun,kenapa baru sekarang nak perjuangkan sesuatu yg boleh timbulkan ketegangan.
    Selama beberapa tahun,tiada Nama Allah Dalam Bible kenapa baru sekarang.
    Saya pernah baca Kita Bible satu hotel Di KL.sama juga Di Sabah.
    Takda Pula ISU.
    Kita hidup dlm sebuah negara yg begitu sensatif dlm hal2 yg berkaitan dgn Islam.kita tak Jaga.
    Akhir,berlaku ketidakpuasan.
    Negara luar,bergerak maju membina generasi berdaya saing tapi dimalaysia dok dipermainkan isu2 yg remeh temeh.yg boleh membangkitkan ketidakpuasan hati.
    Selagi Ada manusia yg berfikiran begini,percayalah..takkan ke mana.

    1. Zaman Nabi pun,orang kafir Mekah yang menyembah beratus berhala masih menggunakan perkataan Allah untuk tuhan yang mencipta alam.

  2. so much time & resource being put into this since 1980s. Msians should just respect the HC decision. As act of good faith & sensitivity, the council of churches in peninsula, sabah & sarawak should officially advise their congregation, people not to use Allah in that context. Dont let the politicians win.

    -Penang state government should buy the property and turn it into another tourist attraction in Penang. The 62 million price tag is pittance than what the place could bring and generate in a long run.

  4. Typical Malaysian politics and its politicians. They just need to squabble and politicise everything. As usual, anticipating for the possibility of strife and trying their best to stir up a storm in the Muslim community, the fiercer the merrier. Some even have already resolved to take it to the street protesting against the High Court's ruling. The word Allah simply means God in Arabic. It is a universal term for God and should not be claimed as exclusive to Islam only. Chanting HIS name ALLAH by all is also a way to praise and glorify HIM, the one and only greatest creator of the universe. AllahuAkbar! So, why feel unreasonably offended when the word is being used by non-Muslims???

  5. We have the Ulamaks and Islamic scholars who shld be in the better position to come up with the answers.. kita2 yg cetik Agama.. its just a matter of personal opinion.

    Personal opinion? Mahkamah? The element of doubt? Walter Forbes was jailed for 40 yrs and now found innocent? Mungkin Hakim yg menghukum dia is long dead and now "burning in Hell" for destroying an innocent man's life.

  7. Dari FB bossku nukilan dipagi hari "deep sungguh" kikiki

    Hari-hari terakhir seorang pendekar

    Melompatnya seorang patriot tegas bernama Dr Xavier Jayakumar Arulanandam

    "Pagi ini, bekas Menteri Air, Tanah dan Sumber Asli PH umum keluar parti PKR untuk sokong kerajaan PN," bekas perdana menteri Datuk Seri Mohd Najib Tun Razak membuat hantaran di FB sebentar tadi.

    Tambah Najib lagi, secara kebetulan bulan lepas, YB ini dikaitkan dengan kes SPRM pembantunya serta kawan baiknya ditahan berkait kes rasuah di mana wang tunai RM1.2 juta disita, RM77 juta dalam akaun-akaun bank dibeku dan beberapa buah kereta mewah di rampas.

    Sementara itu, "seorang menteri kanan yang berwajah mirip pelakon video kontroversi di Sandakan, menzahirkan rasa bersyukur kepada Allah kerana suasana tenang" terus berkekalan... pagi pagi yang sungguh 'deep sekali'

      I think AssMain thinks the people are stupid.

      You don't win public support by abusing the powers of gomen bodies for political ends.

      This rear door player needs to be voted out, and he will be.

  8. KELUARLAH BERAPA BANYAK PUN NAMUN KEADILAN TETAP TOLAK BAPAK PENGKHIANAT IAITU MAHATHIR.

    Bila otai reformasi berkerat rotan baru nampak telo yang mantap..

    Kalau sepuluh lagi pengkhianat akan keluar parti Keadilan, jangan harap kami nak terima atok saka. Bagi MP yg keluar sblm PRU15, ianya memberi peluang calon berjiwa reform untuk mengisi tempat.

    Satu saja Keadilan kena ingat. Jika pengkhianat dengan sendirinya keluar parti untuk sokong pengkhianat, jangan pula Keadilan bawa masuk bapak pengkhianat iaitu Mahathir berada dlm PH.

    Sesiapa yang rasa dirinya ada buat salah atau rasuah, sila keluar dari Keadilan segera. Biar semua perasuah berkumpul satu rumah dengan perasuah dan semburit. Syabas otai otai semua asalkan jangan bergoyang telo dikemudian hari..

  9. Uxnx what a joker party. MINTA 42 mp TAK SOKONG PN bila parlimen di bubar.Use your brain lan bila dah di bubar. Tak jadi Mp lagi so no more value lah sokongan mereka. Iam not a fan of this party but they got no guts plain and simple. You win win humbly you lose lose with dignity. That what rakyak wants.Work harder and gain rakyat trust.
