Finally the answer is ready.
A Christian made stated the following arguments
1. Allah means God which includes the pagans god.
2. Allah is not God name but a title
3. Christians god had a name, what is the name of Muslim God?
RESPONSE FROM AR-RASHID DAWAH
Subhanallah.
First Allah means God you are correct but it never stands for the pagans gods. In Arabic unlike other language that does not have name to distinguish between the almighty God and the pagans gods, Arabic language as the word for distinguishing them.
Allah means "God" while Ilah means "god".
Also
If you say Allah is a pagan God Astagfirullah, then you are accusing the Arab Christians for worshiping idiol too for the Arab Christians also uses the word Allah in their prayers and the word Allah is also found in the Arabic translation of the Bible used by the Christians.
FOR YOUR SECOND CLAIM,
God is not a title. The ideology of saying God is a title as it's root from paganism who believe they are many true gods and each gods must have a name for them to be identified. The pagan Arab before prophet Muhammad pbuh came to them has various name they call their god.
The budisht believe the true god must have a name that god is just a title so they call their god buddah
The Hindu Indians belive god is just a title that god must have a name so they called their god Krishna
The ancient idolatry Egyptian believed god is a title so they call their different gods different names like Horus, Nephatum and so on all different god.
Same ideology is what you Christians believe in this also makes you a pagan.
But we Muslims never accept the word God to be a title for God is the only true God and doesn't need any specific name to know him that's why God has attributes which you can call Him by.
AND FOR THE LAST ARGUMENT,
First there is not a single place in the Bible where you can find the word Yaweh or YHVH. You Christians claim your god name is Yaweh because of the conversation in Exodus 3:14
And God said unto Moses, I AM THAT I AM: and he said, Thus shalt thou say unto the children of Israel, I AM hath sent me unto you.
From a logical sense and good reasoning no one reading this will say God is telling Moses is name rather God is telling Moses that He is Allah (God) and he need no identity. Moses understood this same explanation of mine that's why if you read the next verse of that chapter Allah (God) said to Moses because the Isrealite might not want to listen to Moses for they don't know who Moses was and if Moses should tell them Elohim (God) sent him they might not know which Elohim Moses is talking about, for in Hebrew language Elohim means God and at the same time gods. So God further and said to Moses tell them the Elohim (God) of their Father, Elohim (God) of Abraham, Elohim (God) of Isaac, and Elohim (God) of Jacob sent him.
3:15 And God said moreover unto Moses, Thus shalt thou say unto the children of Israel, the LORD God of your fathers, the God of Abraham, the God of Isaac, and the God of Jacob, hath sent me unto you: this is my name for ever, and this is my memorial unto all generations.
and when Moses got to the children of Israel he told them Elohim (God) Abraham Elohim (God) Isaac, Elohim (God) Jacob sent him and they understood who sent Moses and they follow Moses. So according to this verses you Christians God testify that His name is Allah (God) and not Yaweh.
So there is not a single verse or chapter or book in the Bible that said Yaweh is God name.
My question now for you and all Christians as a whole where did you get the word Yaweh from?
