Description ▲
What's in a name? A rose by any other name would smell as sweet. El Shaddai appears in Genesis and changes the name Abram to Abraham; this is a blessing for the Father of Many Nations. There are three Abrahamic covenantal faiths: Islam, Christianity, and Judaism. The author who responds humbly to El Shaddai knows that she has fulfilled the prophetic potential of her name by baring her breasts. El Shaddai's pseudonym is Hawa Amatullah meaning "Love" and "Female servant of Allah" respectively. Allah in Arabic translates as "The God". Is Allah "The God of Abraham"? Yes. And if the answer is yes, what role does diversity play in a 'House of Worship'? What can the interfaith dialogue do to assure that we maintain a criterion of self-critical inquiry? The author explores her own ijtihad: Is there a universal method of describing God or is God indescribable?
