Challenges to 'Allah' ban Kuala Lumpur December 29, 2007 A MALAYSIAN church and a Christian weekly newspaper are suing the Government for banning them from using the word "Allah", alleging the prohibition is unconstitutional and against freedom of religion. The move follows the Government's declaration that "Allah" - which means God in the Malay language - refers to the Muslim God and can be used only by Muslims.
