torah and injeel were also previous scriptures of the Amlighty Lord. so the arabic christians would make sense to say God in arabic.
the word in Hindi for God is bagwan i dont know what the word for God in punjabi would be which is the language that many sikhs speak so why not stick to your own language and refer to the god that they believe in, in their own language? | It's the one. This mention of God in the scrptures shows what other religions do not reflect this. That there is only one God and not a God for Muslims and one for Christians and one for tha troll who lives under the bridge...
God in Panjabi is Waheguru - The verses are written by Muslims Saints. SO why would thet not use the term Allah?
