The name "Allah" is the Arabic word for God, used primarily by Muslims in reference to the supreme deity. It is believed to be the same God worshiped by Christians and Jews, though with a different name. In Islam, Allah is seen as the creator, sustainer, and judge of all mankind. Muslims believe that Allah is one and indivisible, with no partners or equals. The name Allah is often used in prayers and recitations of the Quran as a way to show reverence and devotion to the divine.
