In Islam we say "Allah" for "الله" not "God" for "الله"
As for Allah is a translation for "الله", while "God" is a translation for "إله", the matter which is not used or just accepted in Islam. Allah is one, while "God" may be more than one.
So, We want more accuracy when dealing with religious terms in exact meaning.

: Yes, and there is nothing in the context that says it is Islamic. This is an Arabic term that is used by both Muslims and Chritstians. Honestly, sometimes, I don't translate it at all in official papers :)
