Ilah

ʾIlāh (Arabic: إله; plural: آلهة ʾālihat) is an Arabic term that means deity, or anyone that is worshipped. The feminine form is ʾilāhah (إلاهة, meaning 'goddess'); with the article, it appears as al-ʾilāhah (الإلاهة). The word is spelled either إلٰه with an optional diacritic alif to mark the ā only in Qur'anic texts or (more rarely) with a full alif, إلاه. In its form as a possessive suffix with an -i ending, it is most commonly used to refer to the God of the monotheistic faiths, and is translated as 'my God'. The more commonly used standalone word for God in Arabic is Allah, conjectured to be a compound form of the Arabic definite article Al ('the') + Ilah, though this has been a matter of dispute.
