Well, I understand that the God of the Muslims is the God of Abraham, David, etc... And so was the God of the Bible. But what I do not understand is that if the Bible claims that Jesus is God (Which it really does incase you didn't know), and that the Muslims deny Jesus of diety, then is it right to say that they worship the same God?

No. The Muslims believe in the Prophets of God in name only. They use the names of the prophets for credibility but deny their teachings as corrupt. They worship a different God. while the Jews do not accept Christ as God They did not corrupt the teachings of the prophets and there God is the same God. The differences are simply pre- messianic.

Do the Jews and the Christians worship the same God? The Jews deny Jesus. This is a very hard subject, but this question is how I found my answer.

One is of Christ foundation and the other is Antichrist that prevent people from coming to the Christ foundation.
So different Gods.
Muslims don't believe in the God of Abraham, David. etc... They just think they do. Abraham's God is the Christian God. The old & new testaments are the same God, LORD God (Yahweh Elohim)/ God is Father, Word & Holy Spirit. To Muslims, God is Allah. Though many of the names of God in the Koran are the names of God in that they reveal who God is.

And Judaism, if you want to look at it that way. In fact, since Judaism came first, you might as well say they're all Jews of different offshoot sects.
Yes, it's a sectarian squabble. All 3 religions developed out of the same tradition, which in turn developed out of still earlier traditions in Egypt and Mesopotamia.
You've gotta love how people go "It's NOT the same god! Because the bible says, Jesus says, blah blah blah, etc." Arguing the point from within the shell of their own religious dogma. Of course, if you want to be that way, Jews and Muslims can do exactly the same thing, and they all have exactly the same claim to validity. It all depends on which books you decide to build your universe around.
Personally, I'd rather look at the question rationally and without prejudice from the point of view of honest history, anthropology, and archaeology.

For lack of Knowledge men are destroyed all the day long.Read Matthew 10:32-42,2 John 1:7-11, and then ask a different question.If they had known Jesus, they would have known His Father too but they don't know God or His Son.

No NO NO...not the same God.
If everyone had the same God, why would Christ say things like people were misled? Lost? Why would the scriptures say, there is a way that seems right to a man, but the ways thereof are the ways of death.
Islam doesn't understand God. God is so moral, that He first became a man (this is Christ) before He even made man. In His eyes, He has to be us, to make us. That's how down to earth He is. God is able to divide Himself, and remain One. That is why you have Jesus as a man on earth, as God, yet praying to God. See, people put God in a box.
The God that came as a man...that's the real God, we know He cares and has a heart.

They are not even close to being the same God. If you want a good explanation on this subject you should read the book "Inside Islam" written by a former radical Shiite Muslim. He got out and now speaks and writes about the false religion he was in. Lots of information in his book regarding the truth about Islam and who their God really is.

Islam believes Jesus was just a prophet, not the son of God. But there is only one God.
