First of all, I guest not all of you were Malaysian and didn't know the situation in Malaysia and need to correct my brother ADZMI assidique that its wasn't "Malay Christian" but "Malaysians Christian" (in Malaysia, all Malays are Muslim).In Malaysia, Malay language is the national language and English is the second language. Need to inform all of you that "Malaysia" was known as "Tanah Melayu" or "Land of Malay". I love Islam and my country. Not saying that I hates non-Muslim or non-Malay but the truth is there are times that the non-muslim tried to provoke the Malaysian Muslim and this is one of them,the Malaysian Christian wanted to translate the English bible version into Malay bible version and not only the word "Allah" issue. I agreed with Janis, why don't they use Hebrew language to address their God instead of Malay language. Looks like this is a way that they want to spread their religion to the Malays as well as other races. And as for now, the Malaysian Muslim youngsters (Malays in particular), they lives in very challenging world, this kind of action must to be taken by the Malaysian government to avoid any confusion between Islam and Christian and also the way to maintain the harmony of a multi-religion country. I'm not very sure about the other counties but I hope that all of you understand the situation in my country as I'm very concern about this issue will never end and ruined the Muslims in Malaysia. And to the Malaysian Muslims whose seems to agree with the Malasian Christian, please be more sensitive with this kind of issues. Thank you. Assalamu’alaikum..

I'm a convert to Islam and I believe that none of us own the right to exclusively use the term "Allah". I think we need to let the religion Islam be shared amongst everybody and if people want to refer to God as Allah, whether Muslim or not then I don't see this as a problem. I believe there is one God - the God of us all and one of his names is Allah. I am not going to object to anybody using his name. We are all accountable for our own actions and intentions. If we start arguing and increasing division betwen Islam and other religions then we are only going to cause anger and fear and of course this is not going to attract people to turn to Islam.

It was Hebrew so why cant the christians use hebrew language to address their god? The Quran was revealed in Arabic so the word Allah (arabic) will not change.
