Christians Should Not Sing Worship Songs of Allah


Exo 20:3 "You shall have no other gods before Me.
Exo 20:4 "You shall not make for yourself an idol, or any likeness of what is in heaven above or on the earth beneath or in the water under the earth.
Exo 20:5 "You shall not worship them or serve them; for I, the LORD your God, am a jealous God, visiting the iniquity of the fathers on the children, on the third and the fourth generations of those who hate Me,
Exo 20:6 but showing lovingkindness to thousands, to those who love Me and keep My commandments. 



Heb. 1: 6 And again, when God brings His firstborn into the world, He says, “Let all God’s angels worship him.” Is. 42: 8 “I am the LORD [Jehovah]; that is my name! I will not give my glory to another or my praise to idols. 


Here is the song that James Harper, the High School student in CO refused to sing in the choir because it went against his faith in Jesus Christ.


Now remember, Allah is not the Triune God, He has no Son, he is unholy, mutable. Allah is "the greatest of deceivers", had to add light and mercy to himself, promotes sexual immorality, along with wife beating and honor killings. Within this song is part of the Shahadah, a one line prayer that if prayed, makes one a Muslim.

This song is translated from Pakistani Urdu, by A. R. Rahman:

those who are addicted to problems in heart,the essence of allaah calls you!
there is no implementation superior to zikr,is the decree ofthe prophet of allaah!pbuh
those who do zikr of allaah from the the heart are indeed freed!
the ego of the soul gets chopped off by doing zikr, zikr undoubtedly is allaah's sword
zikr is peace zikr is victory zikr is healing zikr is the cure
allaah is the only one who is eternal and immortal and rest are perishable and will be destroyed by allah
apart from the greatness of allaah, apologize from the hearts for anything else
light of mohammad, may peace be upon him, there is no other god except allaah
in every flower, in every fragrance, in everything is the light of allaah
in every heart every moment, may the zikr of allaah's stay
o, the first one, who was there before anything else
o, the last one, who will be there after everything else is gone
o, the beneficent, o, the praiseworthy
o, the lord of majesty of bounty  

Notice the line, "light of mohammad, may peace be upon him, there is no other god except allaah" which is a type of the Shahadah:
 
La ilaha illa Allah wa-Muhammad rasul Allah. translated: "There is no god but Allah and Muhammad is the prophet of Allah."
"The shahadah is a set statement normally recited in Arabic: ašhadu an la ilaha illá l-Lahu (wa ashhadu 'anna) Mu?ammadan rasulu l-Lahi " there is no god except ALLAH and Muhammad is the Messenger of ALLAH." Also, it is said that when dying one should recite this declaration of faith. In Azaan (call to prayer) it is recited. Reciting this statement is a key part in a person's conversion to Islam."
Note as well that "god" is "ilaha" which is the generic term for God in Arabic. "Allah" is Allah, the personal name for the god of Islam, and previous to that the god of pre-Islamic times--one of hundreds of pagan deities. Allah was the Moon god. He is the corresponding god of Baal back in the Old Testament from that same area.
 

Allah is not the God of Scripture for several reasons:
Jehovah of Scripture:

He is the God of Truth, He won’t do wicked, impossible for Him to lie, is perfect and is light: Job 34:12; Ps. 18:28; Is. 65:16; Heb. 6:18; Matt. 5:48; James 1:17; Hebrews 6:17-18; Rev. 22:5.
Job 34:12 "Surely, God will not act wickedly, And the Almighty will not pervert justice. Heb 6:18 so that by two unchangeable things in which it is impossible for God to lie, we who 
have taken refuge would have strong encouragement to take hold of the hope set before us.
Jehovah does not change- Mal. 3:6; Hebrews 6:17-18; There are no shadows in Jehovah: James 1:17.

God is Triune, meaning that within the one being that is God, there eternally exists three co-equal and co-eternal persons, namely the Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit.: John 14; Gen.1:26; 2 Thes. 2:13-14; 1Peter 1:2; Matt. 3:16-17; Luke 1:31-35;Eph. 3:14-17; Eph. 4:4-5; Eph. 5:18-20. Jesus is God the Son, second Person in the Trinity (John 1:1-4;17, Heb. 1:1-8; John 8:58, Romans 1, for just a few examples).

Allah:

Quran says Allah had to add mercy and light to himself (he was incomplete, not perfect): S. 6:12,18,54;9:32.
Allah is the BEST of schemers and most crafty as a DECEIVER: S. 3:54, 8:30.
Allah has no son. He is not triune, nor did God the Son die on the cross and raise again to life on the third 
day even though Scripture proclaimed this as well as foretold it, thousands of years ago (Islam came to be in the 600's AD, centuries AFTER the completion of Scripture and the coming of Jesus Christ).

Scripture pre-dates Islam and the quran.
Allah is a different name than Jevhoah. They have different characteristics, different abilities, different books, different authority, different worship, and different fruit. "Allah" is not called Yahweh once in the quran, nor is Jesus Christ called God or Messiah in the quran. Moreover the quran denies Jesus died on the cross when this is a historical figure. Issa, the Muslim version of Jesus, is not even a historical figure. You won't find him 
anywhere in all of history because he's a figment of Muhammad's mind. Allah, however, corresponds to the Baal god of the pagans in the Old Testament that God forbids us to worship.
1Jn 2:22 Who is the liar but the one who denies that Jesus is the Christ? This is the antichrist, the one who 
denies the Father and the Son. 23 Whoever denies the Son does not have the Father; the one who 
confesses the Son has the Father also.
2Jn 1:9 Anyone who goes too far and does not abide in the teaching of Christ, does not have God; the 
one who abides in the teaching, he has both the Father and the Son.
John 8: 58 “I tell you the truth,” Jesus answered, “before Abraham was born, I am!
Exo 3:14 God said to Moses, "I AM WHO I AM." And he said, "Say this to the people of Israel, 'I AM has sent me to you.'
John 1:36 and he looked at Jesus as hewalked by and said, "Behold, the Lamb of God!"

Rev.5:13b "To Him who sits on the throne and to the Lamb be blessing and honorand glory and might forever and ever!" 14 And the four living creatures said, "Amen!" and the elders fell down and worshiped.

Rev 22:3 No longer will there be anything accursed, but the throne of God and of the Lamb will be in it, 
and his servants will worship him.

Phi 2:10 so that at the name of Jesus every knee should bow, in heaven and on earth and under the earth,

1Ti 6:14 to keep the commandment unstained and free from reproach until the appearing of our Lord Jesus Christ, 1Ti 6:15 which He will display at the proper time--He who is the blessed and only  
Sovereign, the King of kings and Lord of lords, 16 who alone has immortality, who dwells in unapproachable light, whom no one has ever seen or can see. To him be honor and eternal dominion. Amen.
2Co 6:14 Do not be unequally yoked with unbelievers. For what partnership has righteousness
with lawlessness? Or what fellowship has light with darkness? 15 What accord has Christ with 
Belial? Or what portion does a believer share with an unbeliever? 16 What agreement has the 
temple of God with idols? For we are the temple of the living God; as God said, "I will make my 
dwelling among them and walk among them, and I will be their God, and they shall be my people
17 Therefore go out from their midst, and be separate from them, says the Lord, and touch no 
unclean thing; then I will welcome you,
By the way, the Author of Scripture, the Triune God, Yahweh, is eternal, and Scripture trumps all people for all time. Adam and Eve were the first people, btw. We can see the progression of people groups in Scripture. The issue is who is God and what is His name, after all He has already revealed His name and His name reflects His nature.
