But is it true that the term Allah first appeared with Islam? Did you know that long before the Prophet Muhammad was born, there were Arab Christian communities who mentioned Allah in their prayers? Did you know that Christian churches existed in the Arabian Peninsula before the advent of Islam? And was it true that Waraqah ibn Nawfal—Khadijah's cousin who first confirmed Muhammad's experience in the Cave of Hira—was an Arab Christian? In this episode of the Diaspora TV Talkshow, Ev. Erwan Nainggolan talks with: 🎙️ Rev.
