اللَّهَAllah

Example sentences

• فَاعْبُدِ اللَّهَ مَعَهُمْ،

  So worship Allah with them.

  اللَّهَ — Allah. This is the divine name acting as the object of the command 'worship', the One the listener is told to devote himself to, so it takes the object-style (accusative) ending. The ending marks God as the target of the imperative rather than any subject.

• إِنَّ اللَّهَ أَكْرَمُ الأَكْرَمِينَ،

  Indeed, Allah is the most generous of the generous.

  اللَّهَ — Allah. This is the noun that the opening emphasis particle has seized, which is why it wears the object-style ending even though it is the thing the sentence is really about. English would just say 'Allah is...'; Arabic instead marks it as governed by the 'truly' particle, then states the description of it in the words that follow.
