Which ‘Tuhan’ are we referring to in our national anthem?

Are we saying that the word ‘Tuhan’ is used in a very wide sense and it includes Allah and whatever god you believe in?

But some Muslims say that ‘Allah’ is their only god. So won't it be confusing for Muslims?

I wonder how many Muslims got confused by this.

How come nobody made a fuss about this?

And since Malaysia is a Muslim country, maybe we should consider changing the word ‘Tuhan’ to ‘Allah’.

 

But then again, if we change it to ‘Allah’, then non-Muslims cannot sing ‘Negaraku’ anymore because the word is supposedly exclusive for Muslims only.

 

Pretty confusing, this ‘Allah’ and ‘Tuhan’ issue, eh?
