Jah or Yah (Hebrew: יהּ Yahu) is a short form of Yahweh (in consonantal spelling YHWH; Hebrew: יהוה), the proper name of the God of Israel in the Hebrew Bible. This short form of the name occurs 50 times in the text of the Hebrew Bible, of which 24 form part of the phrase Hallelu-jah.
In an English-language context, the name Jah is now most commonly associated with the Rastafari. It is otherwise mostly limited to the phrase Hallelujah and theophoric names such as Elijah. In the Authorized King James Version (1611) there is only a single instance of JAH (capitalised) in only one instance, in Psalm 68:4. An American Translation (1939) follows KJV in using Yah in this verse. The conventional English pronunciation of Jah is /ˈdʒɑː/, even though the letter J here transliterates the palatal approximant (Hebrew Yodh). The spelling Yah is designed to make the pronunciation /ˈjɑː/ explicit in an English-language context (see also romanization of Hebrew).
Also short for the name Jehovah.
JAH is a shortened form of the divine name Jehovah.

Shams (in Arabic شمس meaning Sun) was a Saudi Arabian daily newspaper published between 2005 and 2012. Its publisher described the paper as modern and trendy.
Shams was launched as a tabloid paper in December 2005. Turki bin Khalid bin Faisal, a grandson of Sultan bin Abdulaziz Al Saud, was the chairman of the board of directors of Shams Information Company for Publishing and Development that published the paper. It was also reported that he partly owned the paper. Al Wataniya group was also the founder of the daily.
There is inconsistent information about the daily print of Shams. The media group publishing the paper gave the number of daily print as 120,000.Committee to Protect Journalists (CPJ), on the other hand, in its 2006 report described Shams as a modest paper with the daily circulation of 40,000 copies. The Group Plus stated the daily circulation as over 70,000 copies.Shams was staffed mainly by Saudi journalists.
Shams Bandar Al-Aslami (Arabic: شمس بندر الأسلمي, born April 28, 1980), known mononymously as Shams, (Arabic: شمس) is a Saudi-Kuwaiti singer.
Shams released her first album in 2000, but did not achieve mainstream success until she appeared as a guest on the show Leman Yajro'a Faqat on LBC with the presenter Tony Khalifa to talk about her problems with the Saudi singer Sara. Her third album was released a few weeks after the show and has been a major success. She has enjoyed media attention after her conflict with the singer Ahlam. She also released the successful video "ahlan ezayak", which pokes fun at the Bush Administration.
She has recorded several music videos. Some of Shams's popular songs include "ahlan izayak" with George Bush, "tatah" feat. Obama, "kobar rasek", "mothahra nesa2ya", "milion", "ain frash" and "wesh sayer".
On September 26, 2013, in an effort to show solidarity with demands that Saudi women may be allowed to drive, she launched a single (in Arabic) titled 'It's our right to drive' which went viral on the internet.
