Interesting that two of the Quranic translations use the plural WE. 'We' categorically means more than one. In fact WE is used throughout the Quran. So the mathematical argument you are using to support your claim is somewhat thwarted by your own argument. Mathematically in Islam therefore X >1=1. The first quranic translation uses the word allah. Surely the translator could not make such a mistake to substitute Allah for We?
