جلال is the established Urdu Christian Bible term for God’s radiant majesty and honor, and is also a recognized divine-attribute-adjacent term in Islamic theology (Allah as Dhu’l-Jalali wa’l-Ikram, ‘Possessor of Majesty and Honor’); this shared vocabulary is retained as a point of genuine linguistic overlap, provided it is always anchored to Christ specifically in context to avoid an unqualified, merely generic reading.
