This is the question at hand. The Islamic conception of the "ONE GOD" is "Allah." This particular conception of the "ONE GOD" shared by Muslims IS predated by others (Kushitic, KMT, Dravidic, Annu, etc.). This is key because the Islamic understanding to the "ONE GOD" is unique and unlike its predecessors. Sure this world was created and thus the Creator was before it but the Islamic conception of the Creator, "Allah" is new to the game and so is HIS (final)word, the Quran.

On understanding Afrakan thought:
"it's like explaining astrophysics to a whino, the explanation can't be done like that. when people try to simplify it, they ask the other person to tailor the answers their cultural context. and trying to cater afrikan ideals to european understanding is a REAL sin."-utamaroho
