The message was in the last few days around the globe, including Israel Radio reported that Malaysia has banned the Catholic Church to use the word Allah to refer to the Christian God. Allah is exclusively for Muslims. The word Allah comes from Arabic and means nothing more than God. Seven years took the court process in which the Supreme Court has now decided in Putrajaya, that Christians must not further use for their Christian God the term Allah. Almost 10% of the 28 million inhabitants of Malaysia are Christians, Muslims make out to about 60% of the population. Hundreds of Muslims cheered outside the court and chanted Allah Hu Akbar, which means Allah is greater is. In order to give Muslims for the first time legally that their God (Allah) is not comparable with the God of the Bible, Jews and Christians. Already many Muslims have betontet against us again and again that their Allah (God) is larger and therefore had nothing in common with the God of Israel and the Christians. True, these Muslims are no spiritual leaders or personalities that determine the religion of the people, but they convey how and what the people think, not what their religious leaders tell ecumenical religion during meetings with their Christian counterparts. If Malaysias Christians their God may not call Allah, then it is expressed so that the Christian God has nothing to do with the Islamic god. The fact that the Israeli media reported on it, is interesting because Israel neither a Christian nor Muslim country, but a Jewish state. But just because the Jewish State of Israel to live almost 20% Muslims and Christians a few percent, this judgment is also indirectly to Israel. This radical determination in the Far East could also determine the vocabulary in the Holy Land and also in the West, for the entire Middle East, the Christian minority lives in fear among Muslims and not vice versa.
