Khuda
Khuda, Khoda (, Xweda, Xuda) is the Iranian word for "Lord" or "God". Formerly, it was used in reference to Ahura Mazda (the god of Zoroastrianism) and today for God in Islam by only the Iranian, Kurdish and Afghan speakers, and as a loanword in Bengali, Urdu, Sindhi, Hindi and several South Asian languages. == Etymology ==
The term derives from Middle Iranian terms ''xvatay, xwadag'' meaning "lord", "ruler", "master", appearing in written form in Parthian ''kwdy'', in Middle Persian ''kwdy'', and in Sogdian ''kwdy''. In Kurdish the word ''khu'' or ''xwe'' means myself and ''xweda'' or ''khuda'' means "created himself", which is also a name of god (Yazad) in Zoroastrianism. ''Yazad'' is derived from ''Ez, Yez'' which means "me" and ''ad'' or ''da'' meaning "create", as both words are common in Kurdish dialects and other Northwest Iranian languages including Parthian languages. It is the Middle Persian reflex of older Iranian forms such as Avestan ''xva-dhata-'' "self-defined; autocrat", an epithet of Ahura Mazda. The Pashto term ''Xwdāi'' (خدای) is a New Iranian cognate. Prosaic usage is found for example in the Sassanid title ''katak-xvatay'' to denote the head of a clan or extended household or in the title of the 6th century ''Khwaday-Namag'' "Book of Lords", from which the tales of Kayanian dynasty as found in the ''Shahnameh'' derive.
