Yes, but a qualified yes.
Muslims worship 1 God. There is not doubt about that. The Quran, in Surah Ikhlas says, "Say, He is God, the One, the Only. God, the Eternal, the Absolute. He begetteth not nor is He begotten. And there is none unto like Him." Islam emphasizes the Oneness of God over and over in the Quran. Very simple.
Muslims, however, reject the notion of the Trinity, as God cannot have any partners. Jesus (pbuh), for Muslims, is a prophet, a man, not God or the son of God. Muslims consider this giving partners to God, which is not permitted. If you give partners to God, you become polytheistic, and not monotheistic.
So yeah, there is only one God, and Christians, Jews, and Muslims and worship the One and Only God. But where Christians view Jesus as God, their view of God differs significantly from Muslims.

Yes we do
Muslims Christans AND Jews
All worship the same God
Of course Muslims Call God Allah... same God
The only thing is that that Muslims don't belive that Jesus is the son of God...
and Christians do.

No, about 85% of Christians say they are Christians but have never read the bible and truly don't know what it is to be a "Christian"
the 15% that do, have learned god wants you to love your enemy because they are also gods children.
on the other hand about 85% of Muslims also have never read the Quran and truly don't know what it means to be Muslim.
the 15% that do, have learned from Quran that all of their enemies must die.
It gets real interesting when you look at both books end time prophecies. How they go hand in hand with one another. One says a man will rise up and destroy all that is evil, then god will show up and everyone will live happily ever after, the other says a man will rise up and will destroy all that is good in the world, then god will come and destroy it all and rebuild it anew, with out evil

Jews, Christians, and Muslims all claim Abraham as a "father in faith". The God of Abraham is the God of the jews, Christians, and Muslims.
Christians have a unique understanding of the trinitarian nature of god. Christians believe that God is Father, Son (Jesus of Nazareth) and Holy Spirit

Muslims God is the God of Abraham (Abrahim) which is the same as God of Abraham in the Old Testament.
The difference:
Muslims believe that the prophet Muhammed is the last prophet as spoken about about the prophet Isa (Jesus). Jesus was not crucified but was raised to Heaven by God. So Muslims place more importance on the teaching of prophet Muhammed.
Christians believe that Jesus is God, who came down from Heaven to save us from sin and to show us the way to God. Jesus said another will come in place of him but he was referring to the Holy Spirit which now dwells among us. Christians believe salvation is through Jesus Christ and we know for sure we will get there through him alone.

That's a cool question. I personally do not think so. The Koran teaches Muslims not to trust Christian and Jews. The Koran teaches Muslims that they are above Christians and Jews. The Koran teaches Muslims that the non-believers (Christian and Jews) are Satan. But you know what's amazing...Muslim men can marry Christian Women and Jewish Women, but a Christian or Jewish man can not marry a Muslim unless they covert to Islam. Remember.......the only thing inside that big black box in Mecca is a meteorite, I pray to God, not to a rock!

Yes they Do....God is just a title for an entity...Allah is the just a different name for the same thing, just like in some religons he is refered to as Jehovah......and as for Jesus being God, the last time I checked Christians thought he was the SON of God.....

Real Muslims claim so. The Quran calls Chritias and Jewish people "people of the book". Allah is the arabic word for god, If you translated the bible to arabic it would say allah alot in it.

Essentially, yes. Same God but different beliefs.
