Al-lah is the same name as El Yah (YHVH).
The religions you named are all Abrahamic. Christianity is esesentially messianic Judaism that was opened by the Master Yeshua Messiah to everyone.
they all stem from - and therefor have - the same God.

The word "Allah" is simply the Arabic word for Almighty God, and is the same word used by Arabic speaking Christians and Jews. If one were to pick up an Arabic translation of the Bible, one would see the word "Allah" being use where the word "God" is used in English. Actually, the Arabic word for Almighty God, "Allah", is quite similiar to the word for God in other Semitic languages — for example, the Hebrew word for God is "Elah". For various reasons, some non-Muslims mistakenly believe that Muslims worship a different God than Jews and Christians. This is certainly not the case, since the Pure Monotheism of Islam calls all people to the worship of the God of Noah, Abraham, Moses, Jesus and all of the other prophets. However, even though Jews, Christians and Muslims worship the same God — since there is only one God — their concepts concerning Him differ in some significant ways.
Muslims believe in GOD(in arabic Allah), the Supreme and Eternal, Infinite and Mighty, Merciful and Compassionate, The Creator and The Provider, He begets not, nor was He begotten, and there is none equal or comparable unto Him.
Islam is the only religion which recognizes and believes that all the prophets brought the same essential message This message was, still and will be the belief in and submission to ONE God (the Creator and the Sustainer of all things, the Exalted and the Redeemer of all things. The word Islam itself means "submission and surrendering" to God

I'm a Christian. I was raised in the Catholic church, went to Catholic school and religion was my best subject. I've made the study of religion a hobby of mine, ever since. I have studied Isalm and the Hebrew faith. I've studied the Torah, the Talmud, the Zorah, the other Hebrew books and I've studied the Qu'ran and the Hadiths as well as the Old and New Testaments. I have not studied in any language but English, and I admit that this is a flaw.
From what I know, The God who was mentioned in the earliest Hebrew texts is the same God that we Christians worship as God, the Father, and the same God that the Muslims worship as Allah.

I am a Muslim and I believe that the God is the God of Moses, Jeses, David, Muhammed and all other God's prophets.
Jewish still believe on one and only God while Christians have followed the teaching of Paul and have lost the message of Jesus and they have made one God into 3-in-1 god, which Muslims nor Jews agree.
Edit for tuflady:
1: If Bible doesn't change then why Christians don't follow the old law given to Moses?
2: Nowhere in Quran Allah orders to kill non-Muslims but you are more than welcome to ask me for the reference in Bible where a disbeliever "should surely put to death."

The GOD of muslim,christian or jewish is the same GOD. To be more correct would be to say that the GOd of all regilions are one. He does not belong to any religion. We are all worshipping the same GOd yet by different names. LIke they say it rains on the poor and rich, young and old does not matter whether if ur jew,hindu,christian etc.... GOd is one ! He is for everyone to share and not be kept for one particular religion.

Jewish.
IMHO, neither of them represent the jewish god. However, according to jewish law, muslims are considered monotheists and therefore "allah" is considered synonymous with our G-d. Christians, on the other hand, have an unclear status (as we obviously do not believe in a trinity or anything like that).
p.s. its a pet peeve of mine when christians tell me we worship the same god -- NO WE DON'T! (okay, I'm calm now, lol)

yes It is!!
if my god is not the same god as the christian god because Muslims believe that Jesus was not the son of god rather a prophet.
then the Jews god must be excluded for the same exact reason.
but this is too ridiculous ALL 3 religions worship the same god. end of discussion.

I am Christ-belonging....The God of Jews and Christians is the same God. Islam's Allah is not the same in my opinion and I can tell you why if you want to know.....
1. "Allah" teaches differently than the God of the Bible. The God of the Bible says, "I never change. I am always the same."
2. "Allah teaches to murder those who are seen in Muslims' eyes to be evil
The God of the Bible teaches us to love and pray for our enemies.
There is more but that is a good start

NO. The muslim god is based on a pagan moon deity from the 6th and 7th century, during muhammad's time. Muhammad replaced the Judeo-Christian GOD with his pagan Moon god. This is where the crescent moon symbol comes from on almost all muslim/arab flags. He concluded that his pagan moon diety was the "one true god", and rewrote the whole entire bible, and called it the Quran.

ok I AM A MUSLIM!!
as a muslim i've been told that Christians and Jews are people of BOOK... now by saying PEOPLE OF BOOK i mean that we have common GOD but different prophets.. both christians and jews deny Muhammad (S.A.W) as a prophet. But we Muslims accept Jesus Christ as our prophet and without accepting them our faith is incomplete.
We can marry PEOPLE OF BOOK we can eat food prepared by JEWS........... JEWS and CHRISTIANS are not considered non-believers in the whole quran they are considered as PEOPLE OF BOOK!!!
