What is this website? (Easy Read)

This website is called Who is Allah?

It is for anyone who wants to know who Muslims mean when they say Allah.

It also shows how Jews and Christians talk about the God of Abraham.

It is an interfaith community project that belongs to us all, made in Britain.

Our work began with a short film called Error in Terror.

We showed the film around the UK and talked with people afterwards.

In the COVID lockdowns, our team helped to deliver food and safety equipment.

We helped people of different faiths, including Jewish care homes.

Now we want to explain one word, Allah, carefully and kindly.

Here are our promises.

Each faith speaks in its own words.

We share the wonder of science.

We never say a holy book "proves" science.

We never show pictures of God, of any prophet, or of Mary (peace be upon her).

Real people read the Qur'an aloud and write the calligraphy (beautiful handwriting).

Every page tells you where the facts come from.

You do not need to sign up.

There are no adverts.

Videos from other websites only start when you press play.

The children's pages do not save anything about you.

If you spot a mistake, please tell us.
