I am a practicing Christian, but have studied other religions as well. Muslims study and believe the Old Testament, and they believe that Christ was a prophet of God. Jews worship the same God that Christians do. Catholics worship the same God that Protestants do. Jews, Catholics, and Protestants all have very different forms of worship, but each acknowledges that the other is worshipping the same God. What is the basis for believing that Allah and God are different, instead of believing that it is the same God being worshipped in a different manner?

We all worship the God of Abraham.
Abraham has two sons, Isaac and Ishmael.
Isaac's descendants were the Jews. Ishmael's were the original Muslims.
The Catholic Church teaches:
The plan of salvation also includes those who acknowledge the Creator, in the first place amongst whom are the Muslims; these profess to hold the faith of Abraham, and together with us they adore the one, merciful God, mankind's judge on the last day.
With love in Christ.
