Well Muslims use the word Ya Allah. Allah in the Arabic language means The Lord. An interesting fact that is absent to the Christians in the West is the Arab Christians use the word Allah to refer to God.
In the Islamic faith, Jesus (peace be upon him) is a Prophet, and a main tenant in the Islamic Faith is to invoke the Creator not the creation, with that said, Muslims use Ya Allah but has nothing to invoke Jesus or even Muhammad (peace be upon them.)

Well, I live in a Muslim country, and there's a similar thing that's said amongst Muslims, which is "Ya Allah!" which pretty much the same to "Oh God!".

Muslims do acknowledge Christ as a biblical figure, and their God would be Allah. Im not completely for using His name in vain, but, I guess it would be acceptable for a Muslim to use that.

Yes I think so. Muslims believe in the prophethood of Jesus and God is synonymous or in fact the SAME as Allah.

Sure, they *could*, but I'm not sure if it would be a violation of the 1st Pillar of Islam ("There is not God but God, and Mohammad is His messenger').

Yes. They say, "Ya Allah." It means, "Oh God."
