      @FirdausAzil think @rezaaslan is qualified but he wouldn't understand the context of usage here. It's context that gives meaning. @BFMradio

      @macfaisal @FirdausAzil @BFMradio No it doesn't. Allah (al-ilah) has no contextual meaning. It means "the God" in Arabic and nothing else

      @rezaaslan and in Malay language there's a specific word for 'the God', it's 'Tuhan'. Out of context to use 'Allah'. @FirdausAzil @BFMradio

      @macfaisal @FirdausAzil @BFMradio for 1400y Jews, Christians have used Allah to mean God in all parts of the world. Malaysia no exception
