Allah is the master of all mankind.

Dear Mr. Plato (May Allah the most beneficial and the most merciful forgive you for what you don't know)

Being a Muslim it's my duty to answer you for your corrections.

Islam is the 2nd largest followed religion and it's growing. . .

You wrote "May be" other religions are better….!

So you are not confirmed in that. When you see around you, mountains, waterfalls, the deepest sea grounds trees birds Sun moon variations in days and nights. …..etc there is a symmetry in the creation of the universe. So if there are Gods more then one this symmetry cannot be obtained. What you think that Africa is made by Shiri Ram. And Asia is made by Krishna…? If there is more Gods they will fight to rise Sun from east or west.

Hindus believe in more then One God. Even cows, Snakes, etc What ever can benefit them and what ever can harm them.

Islam is a religion for that any Muslim can bet. Me too as well.

2nd thing, dear Plato, You are wrong in finding meanings of Allah.

"Allah" comes from the Arabic word "elah" - (Arabic) means 'a god' or something that is worshipped. This word (elah) can be made plural, as in "aleha" and it can be male or female. "Allah" comes from "elaha" but it brings more clarification and understanding.
Allah = Has no gender (not male and not female)
* "He" is used only out of respect and dignity - not for gender
Allah = Always singular - Never plural
* "We" is used only as the "Royal WE" just as in English for royalty
Allah =Means "The Only One to be Worshipped

I hope you came to know the right meaning. And enhanced your Knowledge.

Is "Allah" only for Islam and Muslims?

"Allah" is the same word used by Christian and Jewish Arabs in the Bible, before Islam came.

• Ø But this being with all this self-proclaimed power is so shy that He is fights shy of revealing Himself to his creatures except to a very few who designate themselves prophets.

Allah is the Light of this universe you can search him out in great world and in great deeds.

That is, although Allah's Light is illuminating the whole world, everybody does not and cannot perceive it. It is Allah alone Who blesses whomsoever He wills with the capacity for perceiving His Light and benefiting by it. Just as the day and night are alike to a blind man, so is the case of a man without the gift of inner perception: he may see the electric light, the sunlight, the moonlight and the light from stars, but he cannot perceive the Light of Allah. For him, there is nothing but darkness in the universe. Just as a blind man cannot see the stone in his way unless he stumbles over it, so is the man without the gift of inner perception, who cannot perceive even those realities around him which may he all brilliance and shining by Allah's Light. He will perceive them only when he is overtaken by the consequences of his own misdeeds.

Mr plato, Allah is listening you and me as well. He is master of this universe. Dont find Him in Idolls he is very near more then your heart near to your neck.

He loves His creature more then 70 mothers. Even no one can measure His blessings upon us. If some one is giving you alot then whats a big deal to di some thing for him as well.

• So Allah says no other Creatures are better than the humans He has created. Hindus also have been created by Allah, so they are also Ashraful Makhlukat. How can these ashraful makhlukat, among them Hindus, spoil their own dignity

Yes of course, All the humans are Ashraful Makhlukat, not only The Muslims. But he has given ways and choices to Men to select the right path among all. Humans are created on an innocent nature. At the religion of Islam, Allah created them all. But He leaved him in the world in finding out the truth for their selves.

• Hindus worship idols made with their own hands. Muslims worship the phantom of a baleful being created in their minds by another human, Mohammed. What is there to choose between the two?

The Prophet of Allah does not slacken in his efforts or feel discouraged because the Unbelievers laugh at him or persecute him or even seem to succeed in blocking his Message. He has firm faith, and he knows that Allah will finally establish His Truth.

اللَّهُ نُورُ السَّمَاوَاتِ وَالْأَرْضِ مَثَلُ نُورِهِ كَمِشْكَاةٍ فِيهَا مِصْبَاحٌ الْمِصْبَاحُ فِي زُجَاجَةٍ الزُّجَاجَةُ كَأَنَّهَا كَوْكَبٌ دُرِّيٌّ يُوقَدُ مِن شَجَرَةٍ مُّبَارَكَةٍ زَيْتُونِةٍ لَّا شَرْقِيَّةٍ وَلَا غَرْبِيَّةٍ يَكَادُ زَيْتُهَا يُضِيءُ وَلَوْ لَمْ تَمْسَسْهُ نَارٌ نُّورٌ عَلَى نُورٍ يَهْدِي اللَّهُ لِنُورِهِ مَن يَشَاء وَيَضْرِبُ اللَّهُ الْأَمْثَالَ لِلنَّاسِ وَاللَّهُ بِكُلِّ شَيْءٍ عَلِيمٌ

Allah (1) is the Light of the heavens and the earth. (2) The parable of His Light is as (if there were) a niche and within it a lamp: the lamp is in a glass, the glass as it were a brilliant star, lit from a blessed tree, (3) an olive, neither of the east (i.e. neither it gets sun-rays only in the morning) nor of the west (4) (i.e. nor it gets sun-rays only in the afternoon, but it is exposed to the sun all day long), whose oil would almost glow forth (of itself), though no fire touched it. Light upon Light! (5) Allah guides to His Light whom He wills. (6) And Allah sets forth parables for mankind, and Allah is All-Knower of everything.(7)

I hope Mr Plato, i did not hurt your feelings.

Regards, (May you get the right path.)
