Spelling/Pronunciation of words...
As-Salamu Alaykum
It bothers me that when you come across like 95% of non-muslims they don't pronounce/spell words like Qur'an properly. It gets on my nerves.
It is spelled and pronounced
Qur'an
. Not: Koran or Kuran or Curran!!!!
It is spelled and pronounced
Muhammad
(PBUH). Not: Mohammet or Mahamad.
It is spelled and pronounced
Muslim
. Not: Moslem...
It is spelled and pronounced
Allah
. Not: Alla...
We put a lot of effort in saying the "Bible" or "Jesus" in front of them, why can't they return the favour by pronouncing our words properly?
You know... I think it would be better for me to just say Injil or Isa, then they'll be confused
(or maybe angry
)
Also the way they say "your Allah"... I mean what the hell? The amount of times I have to say "Pick up a Bible in Arabic and read the first page, you'll see the name Allah at least 10 times. They just never realise that Allah means also means (one) God...
