{{transl|ar|DIN|ʾIlāh}} ({{lang-ar|إله}}; plural: {{lang|ar|آلهة}} {{transl|ar|DIN|ʾālihah}}) is an Arabic term meaning "deity" or "god". The feminine is {{transl|ar|DIN|ʾilāhah}} ({{lang|ar|إلاهة}}, meaning "goddess"); with the article, it appears as {{transl|ar|DIN|al-ʾilāhah}} {{lang|ar|الإلاهة}}. The Arabic word for God ({{transl|ar|DIN|al-Lāh}}) is thought to be derived from it.[1][2] {{transl|ar|DIN|ʾIlāh}} is cognate to Northwest Semitic {{transl|sem|ʾēl}} and Akkadian ilum. The word is from a Proto-Semitic archaic biliteral {{transl|sem|ʔ-L}} meaning "god" (possibly with a wider meaning of "strong"), which was extended to a regular triliteral by the addition of a h (as in Hebrew {{transl|sem|ʾelōah}}, {{transl|sem|ʾelōhim}}). The word is spelled either {{lang|ar|إله}} with an optional diacritic alif to mark the {{transl|ar|DIN|ā}} only in Qur'anic texts or (more rarely) with a full alif, {{lang|ar|إلاه}}.

The term is used throughout the Quran in passages discussing the existence of God or the beliefs in other divinities by non-Muslims. Notably, the first statement of the {{transl|ar|DIN|šahādah}} (the Muslim confession of faith) is "There is no god ({{transl|ar|DIN|ʾilāh}}) except God ({{transl|ar|DIN|al-Lāh}})."
