The answer is Yes. All those religions worship the same Jewish God. And Im not Jewish. In fact Muslims see these 3 as the only true religions. The big difference of course is Jesus. The Jews deny him (not meaning his existence), Christians worship him, and the Muslims only see him as a prophet.

It is exactly the same God. The idea of one God is the same and his rules to guide us are pretty much the same (all 3 basically believe in the 10 commandments). There are a few minor things and a major thing is christians believe Jesus was son of God and died on the cross but Jews and Muslims don't believe that.
Jesus was supposed to just be a reminder to Jews that God exists and muslims don't believe that he was son of God...
Also, the bible is supposed to be corrupt a bit with it being translated so many times and changed where as the Torah and the Quran are both preserved.
Edit: By the way, Allah and God are the same thing...! And as muslims are the last faith in the chain, they seem to have a pretty objective view of this. That is they see the similarities in all three religions and they believe a lot of things from the last two religions. That is why they are supposed to read the Bible, Torah and the Quran to see where the religion develops from and why to treat Christians and Jews with respect, though they aren't getting any at the moment from them. Come on guys, show some respect!

In that both Islam and Judaism are monotheisms, both would agree there is only one God to pray to. Christians would say the same thing, but Muslims and Jews both would point out that the Trinitarianism most Christianism embraces is really polytheism, unless you're Roman Catholic where Mary makes four. Christians will deny this and have spent 2000 years concocting ridiculous explanations for how three Gods are one but still three, but the explanations are nonsensical.

That said, the Hebrews worshipped a recast Canaanite mountain god. Islam has been linked to a recast moon god. The Virgin Mary is just a recast fertility goddess to replace all the popular female deities of the Roman Empire.

But since they are all make believe anyway, it's like asking if one is worshipping Superman and the other is worshipping Captain Marvel. Zeus, Jehovah, Allah, Odin, what difference does it make what you call your imaginary friend? But it makes enough of a difference for them to die over I guess.

specific - all assume there is just one God, and besides the undeniable fact that followers supply Him another perceive, he's likewise a similar historic God. All 3 agree on a undeniable style of prophets as brought about: Abraham, Moses, Noah, Jesus (that's additionally, of direction, the Messiah of the Christians), and others. Jews and Christians do no longer take transport of the divinity of Mohamed's message (besides the undeniable fact that some are prepared to furnish he was once inspired).

Yes, it's the same God. Jews call him 'Eloh', or 'Elohim'. Allah and Allahumma are the direct equivalent for these words, both meaning 'God'. It is compounded of "Al", the definite article 'the', and "illah", meaning "god". Therefore, Allah literally means "The God" -- somewhat parallel to the capitalized "God" in English. (Since Jesus, peace be upon him, used Aramaic as his first language, he used the word Allah.) A standard practice in Semitic languages is to use what would we would call a plural form for the word for God, thus, 'Elohim' and 'Allahumma'. This does not mean that God Himself is more than one, or even has a gender, but it is only a unique characteristic of Semitic languages. The closest thing we can describe this as in English is a 'royal we'.

The name Allah is used by Muslims world-wide, as well as Arabic-speaking Christians, Jews, and others. It is written in Arabic as الله . As a Muslim, I know that the God I worship is the God of Abraham, Ismail, Isaac, and Jacob (peace be upon them all). From an Islamic point of view, Allah is the special name of God and is the most precious name because it is not a descriptive name like the other 99 Names of Allah, but the name of God's own presence. It is impossible to alter the word in Arabic; such as create a plural form (gods) or change the gender. The Islamic concept of mankind's place in the universe hinges on the notion that God is the only true [reality]. There is nothing permanent other than God. God is considered eternal and "uncreated", whereas everything else in the universe is "created."

Allah is considered by Muslims to be omnipotent, omnipresent, and omniscent. Islam teaches that other religions have, in one way or another, distorted and nullified a pure and proper belief in Almighty God by neglecting His true teachings and mixing them with man-made ideas.

Muslims do not try to draw or depict God in any way, according to Islamic belief it could lead to idol worship. Instead, we focus on His 99 Names and attributes that are stated in the Quran. Nearly one third of the book is used describing God's attributes and actions. Also, "hadith qudsi" are special recorded sayings of Muhammad to Muslims where he quotes what God says to him. The 99 "Attributes" are frequently written in calligraphic Arabic as a permissible decoration, which adorns mosques and homes of Muslims.

Yes, because Jews, Christians and Muslims are said to be "People of the Book" in that they all share the bible. The Jews have the Torah or Hebrew Bible (which is the Old Testiment plus other books, essentially). Christians have the bible, and Muslims have the Quran and bible. But the answer is also, "No" because they all consider their interpretation to be the 'only' interpretation, and the god mentioned in the bible is considered somehow different when read by adherents of all three religions.

Basically yes, from what I've read they all pray to the god of Mosses, Abraham and David. Jews people think Jesus was just another rabbi, Muslims thinks Jesus was a profit not the son of god and Mohamed was the last profit of god. And Christians think Jesus was god in human form. That's about it.

No, Jews and Christians believe in the Father. Christians believe in Father, Son (Jesus), and Holy Spirit. Three "personalities" or three persons, of the same God. Muslims pray to a different god.

The short answer is yes. I won't bore you with a long winded history of religion, but all three go back to the same beginning. They have 3 different profits and interpret the books a little differently but the origins are the same.

i do not know much about Jews, Muslims. but i know the God true Christians serve is in the trinity; God the father, God the son and God the Holy spirit. he is the everlasting God of mercy, love and forgiveness who gave the life of his son for our sins. So ask Muslims and Jews if there God is like that?
