Both Muslims and Jews do not believe in Trinity but Christians did.In The Holy Quran and The Torah it is mentioned that Jacob fought with the Angel but the Bible says he fought with God and got the name Israel.Why there to many differences between theChristians and the Jews/Muslims?

Not all bibles are equal.
Gen 32:24 Finally Jacob was left by himself. Then a man began to grapple with him until the dawn ascended. 25 When he got to see that he had not prevailed over him, then he touched the socket of his thigh joint; and the socket of Jacob’s thigh joint got out of place during his grappling with him.
Since this angel (man) was Jehovah's representitive, Jacob, could say he saw God face to face.
This had to be an angel, cause Moses was told that to see God was to die.
Jesus confirmed this statement in John.

That's a loaded question. Islam, Judaism, and Christianity are actually all three at odds with one another in many ways while agreeing with each other in others.
Only the Christians believe in the Trinity because Jesus Christ IS PART OF the Trininty. The Jews and the Muslims believe Jesus was a prophet, but not the messiah. The Muslims believe Muhammed was the messiah. The Jews believe there has not yet been a messiah.
Why the differences? Take a story, ANY story, and process it through 2,000 years of history (the majority of which was before print was invented), and see what you get.
Also: The Christians have several factions (Catholics, Baptists, Mormons, etc) as do the Jews (Orthodox, Zionist) and the Muslims (Sunni, Shi'a, Sufis, etc). There is much disagreement within and without these religions.

You are talking about very sensitive topic. All religions are best. We must respect each other and by talking as you are doing learn.
Do you want to listen that what Christians believe that is wrong? Jews and Muslims are right. According to their view point whether it is Jew, Christian or Muslim they all are right If you really want to know the fact better study all religion instead asking short cut answer here.
Here by various answers you will get puzzle only. Always try to get opinion by religious authorities regarding religious matter. Then compare that information according to your own knowledge.

No where in the Christian bible does the word trinity exsist. Unfortunatly thee are many false prophets that are and have been walking the earth.
Sometimes symbolic things get misconstrude as reality and then that even get misconstrude. The bible is complex and for one to get the full meaning one must be taught by one who has the trueth.

because they are all mythological stories forged by superstitious minds, and are alive today because of witches burning, forcing others to convert, crusades etc. jesus was not the architect behind the bible, and those who wrote it were "inspired" by him now think about that. thus it answers ur question why there are so many differences. Because everything was written by different people and manipulated to their will, not gods will, that is the illusion most people are sadly taken by today.

keep in mind as well that Judaism is the oldest of the three, then christianity came from judaism, and islam came from christianity.
by jewish standards jesus as anything more than just a man, is either simply wrong, polytheistic, and/or Idolotorous. and the trinity is simply polytheism at least.

It depends on which Christians you talk to eastern orthodox is a whole lot different than the western Christian belief. Catholics are much different too.
What it boils down to is that they are all saying something different.
