Make this article protected by "Pending changes protection"
this article talks about allah (god) which is very important not only to muslims but also to christians and other abrahamac religions, so it must have more than only semi-protection, because people could easily vandalise this page, HusseinRaed (talk) 21:48, 13 September 2021 (UTC)

Change:
Allah (/ˈælə, ˈɑːlə, əˈlɑː/;[1]
To:
In, Islamic religion, Allah (/ˈælə, ˈɑːlə, əˈlɑː/;[2]
See:
Wikepedia talk:Manual of Style/Lead section UniversalHumanTransendence (talk) 00:39, 31 July 2021 (UTC)
Not done because that would violate WP:LEAD. Islam doesn't have any exclusive use of the word Allah. As made abundantly clear in the article, Islamic religion is one section and does not constitute the majority of the article, which describes the topic in the context of an Arabic word rather than an Islamic concept. ~Anachronist (talk) 02:39, 31 July 2021 (UTC)

I would like to add this line to the end of the Pre Islamic Arabians section.
Allah is also mentioned in the Atrahasis story.[3]

- Is that about the same Arabic word?VR talk 14:47, 24 November 2021 (UTC)
Yes Fiqi Buraale (talk) 04:38, 25 November 2021 (UTC)
- According to the cited text, Alla spoke to gods who were his brothers. Are you claiming that Allah also has brothers who are gods? AstroLynx (talk) 09:41, 25 November 2021 (UTC)
- And what about the final -h? We also need a reliable source that actually equates Alla with Allah? –Austronesier (talk) 12:05, 25 November 2021 (UTC)
Not done for now: please establish a consensus for this alteration before using the

According to Arab historians, Ismail and his descendants resided in Mecca, and they were monotheists, believing in the One God, the Lord of Abraham, Allah. Then, after the succession of centuries, the Quraish gradually brought idols from different tribes around Mecca in order for people to make pilgrimages to it, and they placed them around the Kaaba, whose pillars Abraham and Ismail raised, The Qurayshites believed that the supplication of these idols would bring them closer to Allah, and they maintained their faith in Him, and this is what the Qur’an also talks about.
The word allah or its synonyms were used throughout the Middle East at the time to describe God in different languages and religions
