Yeah i meant i agree with you and not with him saying that it makes Allahs name bigger. I know that you said similar things but not the same.

*meem

Sorry to bother but can you give an example of the umma rule using arabic letters. Can you write Hal-Umma in Arabic? Cause I can't seem to find that rule.

Ok, so I get that we shouldnt care about matching Allahumma to any Jewish phrase but Im just saying that you yourself said Yahweh means Ya huwa but Ya huwa lacks the consonant heh in YHWH. Why is that? And forget about Elohim and Allahumma since it is comparing different languages. Just the thing is that you yourself compared the Hebrew YHWH to Arabic Ya Huwa. So maybe just explain how there is an additional heh in YHWH compared to Ya Huwa (YHW).

So Allahumma is similar to Yahweh instead of Elohim? I heard Yahweh means O He like you said but that would be يا هو. But what happened to the heh in YHWH? يا هو is made up of yaa, alif, haa, and waaw, while YHWH is made up of yod, heh, waw, heh. Like in the Arabic يا هو, the heh is missing.

UPDATE: Actually thats not always the case

Peace,
I wonder where the term اَللّٰهُمَّ came from. It has been translated as O Allah so for a long time I thought adding a meem after a name in arabic is equivalent to O (the name) but thats not the case. It only works with Allah's name. Like you cant say محمدم to mean O Muhammad. That doesnt make sense. I read some theories about the origin of اَللّٰهُمَّ but no one knows for sure. One of the theories was that اَللّٰهُمَّ came from the Hebrew Elohim. Elohim is the plural (of majesty) of Eloh. And the plural form of ه (he), which is the last letter of Allah, would be هم (they) in Arabic. This leads me to think that اَللّٰهُمَّ can be from Elohim since they are both plural. But, if Allah was plural (as in respect) it would be اَللّٰهُمْ without a tashdeed and fatha on the meem but a jaazm instead. But language borrowing (Hebrew Elohim to Arabic Allahum) does not always have to make sense, which can explain why it is اَللّٰهُمَّ (with tashdeed and fatha on meem) and not اَللّٰهُمْ (jaazm on meem). But this is just a theory and the origins of this word remain unknown. Maybe you guys can explain where اَللّٰهُمَّ came from? Maybe the admin can add this to his website to give further proof that Elohim and Allah are the same God since اَللّٰهُمَّ has been used a few times in the Quran which means that (assuming my theory is correct) Allah recognized the plural of Eloh in the Bible thats why He used it a few times in the Quran?
