Hallowed by Thy Name

Do you know your father’s name? Is it possible to

be puzzled about the knowing of his name? If it is
not possible be confused about your own father’s
name ,then how can it possible to be confused
about the name of our Creator and Sustainer? How
can two people of the same faith differ about the
? name of name of God Almighty

According to the different sects of Christianity,

each sect has a different name for Whom they are
worshipping. Although the majority among them
have agree about the name of Jesus Christ as one
of the names they claim they are in fact
worshipping one God. Why should they differ about
? the name of this God they are worshipping

Millions of Christians around the world are offering

:prayer through their saying

Our father which art in heaven ,Hallowed be thy“

Name “Matthew6:9

Did they ever ask themselves ,what actually is His

name? Is His name the” Father’ ?”Jesus ? “God”?
?“Yahweh”? Or who
 In regards to these names, let us ask some
questions ?Did the Creator name Himself with one
name only ,or all of them at same time? Did God
Almighty attribute any of these to Himself ,or did
someone else do it? When we mention these
names , do we really mean the Creator Himself or
do we mean someone else? What or who is the
source of all these names ?And lastly ,what is the
.meaning of these names

The Creator and Sustainer of the Heavens and the

Earth is a unique Being that cannot be compared
to anyone or any thing .There is none like unto Him
.How about the name of the Creator and Sustainer?
It must also be unique name is a firm belief of all
religions. Are the above-mentioned names, unique
?names

Can we use the word “father” as a name for the

Creator ?The word “father “ is not a name ,but it is
an attribute . It is not unique because there are
millions of ”fathers” around the world who are
carrying the same of Jesus, can they be gods or as
?gods

What about the word “God” ? The word God can be

made into a plural i.e. ”Gods” .Also it can be made
into the feminine ,i.e. Goddess. How can the word
:”God “ be the proper name of the Creator? There
are thousands of false gods called upon around the
 world . Idols of countless different names and
shapes ( men, women ,animals ,planets) Which are
.referred to as gods

Can we use the name of “Jehovah “ is a name of an

. alter

Then Gideon built an alter there unto the lord ,and“

called it Jehovah –sha’lom :unto this day it is yet in
Ophrah of Abi-ez’rites” Judges 6-24

Even the name “Jehovah” cannot be used as a

name for the Creator ,as the name which is given
to more than one is not a unique name , while the
. name of Creator must be unique

? The question still remains , what is His name

His name is the name which He named Himself .

. Which He announced and attributed to Himself

Verily I am Allah, none has the right to be“

worshipped but I, so worship Me , and perform the
prayer for My remembrance” Qur’an 20-14

Allah is a unique name which The Creator and

Sustainer has given to Himself. There is no other
 name like it and it has never been given to any of
the Creation . It cannot be a plural and it does not
have any feminine form. It is only proper name for
!our Creator, and there is none like unto it

Also the name of Allah is the rest and peace of

:Allah is the rest and peace of the heart

Those who believed (in the oneness of Allah“

Islamic Monotheism ) and whose hearts find rest in
the remembrance of Allah: verily, in the
remembrance of Allah do hearts find rest “ Qur,an
13-28
