Yahweh in Quran & Islam

163. وَإِلَـهُكُمْ إِلَهٌ وَاحِدٌ لاَّ إِلَهَ إِلاَّ هُوَ الرَّحْمَنُ الرَّحِيمُ

163. And your God is One God. There is no God but HoWa, the Most Compassionate, the Ever-Merciful.  (Quran 2:163)

The number of this verse, 163, is equal to the numerical value of:

               الإسلام  The Islam : 163

The declaration of the oneness of God in verse 163 of Sura 2 is comparable to the following verse from the Torah (Old Testament of the Bible):

 " Hear, O Israel: Yahweh (YahWah, Jahovah or YaHoWa)  is our God; Yahweh is one."  (Deuteronomy 6:4)

In some versions of the Bible of Christians, this verse is stated as: " Hear, O Israel: the Lord is our God; the Lord is one." (Deuteronomy 6:4)

In the Torah (Jewish Bible), one of the words used to refer to God is YHWH (YaHoWaH), which could be pronounced as Yahweh, Yahwah, Yahowah, or Jahovah.

We believe that Yahowah is mentioned in the Quran many times, such as in the above verse. Yahowah appears in the Quran asهُوَ   HoWa. It is made up of two Arabic letters, the first one can be pronounced as Ha or Ho (it is the 5^th letter in the Arabic alphabet) and the second letter can be pronounced as Waw or Wa (it is the 6^th letter in the Arabic alphabet). As a word, it is pronounced as HoWa. Most Muslims perceive it as a word that means He. This interpretation is fine, but  it is possible to additionally perceive it as  two letters that refer to God. Thus, this word هُوَ  (HoWa) in the Quran is the equivalent of Yahowah, or Jahovah in the Bible. The Hebrew letter "Ya" at the beginning of Yahowah functions exactly like the letter "O" that appears before the word "Israel" in the biblical verse displayed above: " O Israel: Yahweh is our God", so the letter "Ya" is not actually part of God's name.

The numerical value of the word هُوَ  HoWa is: 5 + 6 = 11.

Furthermore, the numerical value of the word  الله  (Allah ) is: 1+30+30+5 = 66     (66 is equal to 11 x 6, so 66 a multiple of 11).
