THE MEANING OF THE WORD "ALLAH"
The word "Allah" is "Al" + "Ilah".
So, first of all the meaning of the word "Ilah".
"Ilah" means "A Being" Whose "Supermacy and Ruling" is established, and Whose "Law or Hukm" is obeyed.
The whole of the universe is obeying Allah's Hukm.
So, whose hukm is obeyed he is considered to be "ilah".
Please read the following Verses:
-----"He (Pharaoh) said: "If you take an "ilah (authority)" other than me, I will certainly put you among those imprisoned." (26: 29)
Pharaoh meant if you obeyed the hukm, other than my hukm.
-----"Have you seen him who has taken his desire as his ilah (authority). Then would you be responsible for him." (25: 43)
Means one who obeys his own desires. Whatever he desires, is hukm for him. He has become a slave of his own desires.
Then the next Verse is for Allah.
-----"And He it is Who in the heaven is Ilah (Law Giver, Authority), and in the earth Ilah (Law Giver, Authority). And He is the All Wise, the All Knower." (43: 84)
So It is Allah, for Whom is the Authority, Law, Hukm, in the heavens, universe, and also on the earth, means on the people.
So,---Allah is, Whose Grandeur and Eminence----- dazzles, impresses and overpower,----- everyone and everything.
Whose Authority is established, and Whose Laws and Hukm is obeyed.
So (Al + Ilah), Allah is not only a Being Who should only be revered and praised,----- but also, The One Whose every Law must be obeyed, and Whose every Hukm must be followed.
His creation must bow before His Authority.
The meaning of "Atiu Allah" is to bow before Allah's Authority, and obey His Law and Hukm.
Every person does take someone as his "ilah".
Either he takes Allah (Al + Ilah) as his "Ilah".
----- Or he takes ghairillah as his ilah.
The ghairillah maybe his own dirty desires (will, arrogance, honor),------- they maybe Corrupt Ulama Karam, Kafir Murshid-e-Kamil,----- they maybe political leaders and many others.
So, Allah is informing us:
-----"Surely the Hukm (Law and Judgment) is for none, but Allah." (Yousuf-40)
Hukm is for none, but Allah, Who is The Only "Ilah".
And:
-----"He does not make anyone His associate in His Hukm (Law and Judgment)" (Al-Kahaf-26)
There is no "ilah", but Allah (Al + Ilah).
After informing this, Allah is warning us:
-----"And Allah said: "Do not take for yourselves two "ilahs (two authorities)". He (Allah) is only One Ilah (Authority). So you fear only Me." (16:51)
People do have Iman in Allah (only to revere),----- but they obey other ilahs (other authorities) in their matters, businesses and affairs of life.
But Alhamdolillah, there are good examples of Prophets, Messengers and other muslims:
-----"And who is better in speech than him who calls (people) to Allah, and does righteousness, and says: "Indeed, I am of the Muslims." (41: 33)
Means who takes Allah as The Only Authority, Law and Hukm,----- and himself obeys,
-----and then, calls people to leave others (ulama karam, peer-o-murshid, political leaders, his own dirty desires) whom they have taken as authority, law and hukm, ---and calls them to take Allah as Authority, Law and Hukm.
