When talking to a Muslim about God is ok to use the term Allah? (I personally can’t see any halachik problems, but there’s a lot I can’t see)

    I heard someone singing Echad Mi Yodeya in Arabic. Allah, from אחד אלקינו, was the only word I recognized.

  • @DoubleAA E.g. Pri Chadash YD 19:6 doesn’t take issue with saying Allah only that it’s an unnecessary interruption between in the blessing and slaughtering.

    Don't you think it's ironic to ask if you can call 'God' 'Allah'?

Having grown up in Egypt and knowing Arabic, I can tell you that Jews (like Muslims) freely use "Allah" in conversation to refer to God, although it is frequently replaced by "Rabbena" (Our Master). God is usually addressed directly as "Ya Rabb" (O Master).

            Refactoring coordinates for Minecraft Pi buildings written in Python

            Image
            0 $begingroup$ I'm fairly new to coding and I wrote this script in Python for a house with a roof in Minecraft Pi. I've found different ways to write the coordinates to make the code base shorter, but I'm wondering if it is possible for me to refactor it any further so I don't have to list each coordinate line by line. import mcpi.minecraft as minecraft import mcpi.block as block mc = minecraft.Minecraft.create() p = mc.player.getTilePos() mc.setBlocks(p.x+1, p.y, p.z+1, #Main structure starting coordinates (DO NOT ALTER) p.x+19, p.y+4, p.z+6, #Structure size/coordinates (Alters cube size) block.STONE_BRICK) mc.setBlocks(p.x+2, p.y+1, p.z+2, #Hollowing out main structure interior p.x+18, p.y+3, p.z+5, block.AIR) mc.setBlocks(p.x, p.y...
