Before coming to the actual answer I would like to state that I don’t believe that the God of Jesus is different from the God of Muhammad. There is only one creation that we all are sharing then how come there be more than one Creator and Maintainer for the same.
Also I believe that all the religious scriptures like Bible, Quran and Bhagwad Gita originates from the same one God. But as they were conveyed by different representatives at different times the contents in them seem to differ but actually the essence is same.
And above all no religion teaches to hate others they only teach to Love.
Coming to the this question the scriptures of the oldest religion “Sanatan Dharm” (Eternal Religion) gives the exact details about God.
Brahm Samhita states
isvarah paramah krsnah
sac-cid-ananda-vigrahah
anadir adir govindah
sarva-karana-karanam
Meaning:
“Krsna who is known as Govinda is the Supreme Godhead. He has an eternal
blissful spiritual body. He is the origin of all. He has no other origin and He is the prime cause of all causes.”
The spiritual place of transcendental pastimes of Krsna is portrayed in the second verse:
sahasra-patra-kamalam
gokulakhyam mahat padam
tat-karnikaram tad-dhama
tad-anantamsa-sambhavam
Meaning:
“The superexcellent station of Krsna, which is known as Gokula, has thousands of petals and a corolla like that of a lotus sprouted from a part
of His infinitary aspect, the whorl of the leaves being the actual abode of Krsna.”
Though the lord as a person is always blissfully enjoying the transcendental pastimes in his abode still he is present everywhere in form of his various energies.
Krishna has all the 64 qualities that are seen in this world in full.

God is omnipresent. That means he is in everything and the totality of everything is God.
Taoist Beliefs (Substitute the word "God" for the words "The Tao"):
The Tao caused the creation of the universe.
The Tao is the energy that flows through all life.
The Tao surrounds everyone in the form of nature.
Everyone must observe and reflect on nature to find enlightenment.
An adherent’s goal is to become one with the Tao.
Everything in the universe is the Tao.
The many gods are manifestations of the one Tao.
Everything is cyclical.
Each person must nurture the Tao or 3 bodily energies (Jing, Ch’i, Shen) through activities such as exercise and meditation.
One should be prudent and think before acting.
People are inherently good.
Follow the art of wu wei: let nature take its course.
Practice detachment.

2Corinthians 3:17 Now Jehovah/YHWH is The Spirit, and where the spirit of Jehovah is, there is freedom.

Love, Eternal, slow to anger, abundant in loving-kindness and truth, wise, mighty, almighty, with counsel and understanding, perfect, just, righteous, generous, happy, immortal; 1 John 4:8, Jude 25, Ex.34:6, Job 12:13, Deut. 32:4, James1:15,1Tim.6:15,16, Rev.1:8.

As quoted from the bible; God is the beginning and the end, God is the alpha and omega. God created the heavens and earth. While you cannot see him, If you believe, you will definitely feel his presence. God is love. God loves all. God forgives all, But you first have to accept God as your Lord and Savior Repent your sins and ask for forgiveness, and God will never turn his back on you. Please find a bible and read it. It is truly an eye opening book. If everyone would read the bible and try to live life as it is told through-out the bible, this world would be a much more peaceful and pleasant place to live.
God Bless

No need to quote scripture... just read the first 20 or so verses of Genesis. God lives in heaven, which is on the other side of the sky (firmament).
According to Genesis The story of Genesis is comprised of the myths, superstitions, fairy tales and fantastical delusions of an ignorant bunch of Bronze Age fishermen and wandering goat herders, lifted from the oral traditions of other cultures, and crafted into a tale that incorporated some of their own folk tales and pseudo-history. This collection of ignorance provides the basis for the Abrahamic death cults of desert monotheism... Judaism, Christianity and Islam.
The cosmological aspects of Genesis are perfectly understandable, if you contemplate it in the proper context. At the time the bible stories were concocted, the perception was that the earth was the object and the center of creation. Why? Because they had no reason to think otherwise. Today, as we advance science, we stand upon the shoulders of all the scientists that came before. Back then there were no shoulders to stand upon... so they did the best they could with what they had... their senses.
* They had no concept of 'outer space', and so they conceived that in the beginning all there was were dark waters.
* They had no concept of 'nothingness'. Remember, the concept of 'zero' wasn't invented (discovered?) until thousands of years later. With that in mind, the term 'void', as it is employed in Genesis, can not refer to 'nothingness'... it can only be applied in its alternative definition, which is 'empty'. So, the waters were dark, formless and empty (devoid of content).
* They thought that all of creation consisted of the earth and an unseen 'heaven', and they thought that the sky was a 'thing'... a substantive 'firmament' that was created by god to separate the waters and differentiate earth from heaven, when both were created.
# They had no idea that Earth was a planet, orbiting the sun.
# They had no idea that there is no firmament... that the sky is not a 'thing'.
(If you don't believe that they thought the sky was an object, consider the Tower of Babel, that they were building to reach heaven. Apparently, God ALSO thought that the sky was an object, since it concerned him so much that he confounded their speech, so as to disrupt their project and keep them from reaching his domain. God must be pretty much of a dumbass, if he doesn't even know the actual configuration of the universe that he created. So much for the 'inerrant' bible.)
* They thought that the sun was a light that god had placed upon the 'firmament' to differentiate night from day.
# They had no idea that the sun is a star... the center of our solar system.
# They had no concept of 'stars' in the same sense that we understand them today.
* They had no idea that night and day were a consequence of the earth's rotation.
* They thought that the moon was a light that god had caused to travel across the firmament to enable man to differentiate the seasons.
# They had no concept of the moon as a satellite.
* They thought that the stars were tiny lights that god had placed upon the firmament to provide for omens. (Some thought that the stars were 'holes' in the firmament that allowed the 'light of heaven' to shine through.)
# They had no idea that the stars were suns, just like our own sun.
# They thought the eyeball-visible planets (Mars, Venus, Jupiter, Saturn) were 'wandering stars'.
# They had no idea that the planets were actually sun-orbiting bodies, just like earth.
* They had no idea that the earth, itself, is a planet.
# They had no clue as to the actual nature of the earth, our solar system, the place of our solar system in the galaxy... or even of the existence of our galaxy. (Up until very recently, we didn't even know that there were other galaxies. Our galaxy, when it was first known that there actually WAS a galaxy, was thought to be the whole universe.) From their perspective, the 'earth' and 'heaven' (i.e., whatever existed on the other side of the sky) represented all that there was. A terrarium.

God is omnipresent. Which means that God is everywhere and apart of all things. I do not believe that God has a human form. Nor do I believe that God is either Male or Female. I simply believe that God is a spiritual force in our world.

Definately not at the Sleepy Hollow Motel on Route 1 coming out of Princeton, NJ where I was last week. Just a large black man named "Fat Larry" who brought a prostitute to my door after I had ordered a Dominos Pizza.

God is in the hearts & minds of those who believe in him...
Despite historical precedence..
The God of Jesus and the God of Mohammed do not
appear to be the same god..
The God of Jesus is a God of love & life and the God of Mohammed
is a God of hate & death...

"The kingdom of heaven is within." What does that mean to you?
To find God, look within yourself. Make prayer/meditation a regular practice. You'll find all about God, where he "lives" and what is qualities are - just by listening in silence.
