Allah is the creator of this universe and many religions acknowledge that there is one creator and that is why we, human beings, have to respect that creator. In muslim, we call the creator of this universe as Allah.
in Buddhism, they call the creator as Bramha. Howabout, Buddha, was he a person or the creator of this universe. if buddha is a creator of the Universe,they recognise the existence of the creator of Universe. As there is only one Allah in this universe, they indeed worship and respect the same creator as us.
The Jews also believe in one God and that God that they believe is also the creator of this universe.
Christians also believe in God and that God that they believe is also the creator of this universe.
As many religions believe in the creator of this universe, why should you'll be so odd when I mention Allah since he is the creator of this universe.
Some religions worship monkey god, goddess of mercy, and whatsoever. We know that all these are false gods since some of them were indeed peoplel that ever lived in the past and yet they treat them as gods to be worshipped. Some gods were the heroes of the past and that people prayed to them since they respect their glory in the past.
As many religions recognise there is the creator of this universe, I do not feel odd when I mention Allah since he is the creator of the universe.
