Allah, as Chris has pointed out, is arabic for God. Muslims believe in the same God as Christians. I have never heard of PBUH (which I am taking to mean as peace be upon him) used when refering to Allah/God, that is usually used when making references to the prophets. When refering to Allah one would use phrases like The Great One, The All Merciful i.e. attributes of God (in arabic).
