Do you truly believe that Muslims worship a different God than you?
*the God of Islam created the universe and heaven and hell.... did your God not created the universe, heaven and hell?
[2:21] O people, worship only your Lord - the One who created you and those before you - that you may be saved.
[2:22] The One who made the earth habitable for you, and the sky a structure. He sends down from the sky water, to produce all kinds of fruits for your sustenance. You shall not set up idols to rival GOD, now that you know.
*the God of Islam created adam(as) and eve(as) as the first people on earth...as well as all the Prophets(as).... did the God of the Judeo-Christian tradition not create adam(as) and eve(as) and the Prophets(as)?
[3:59] The example of Jesus, as far as GOD is concerned, is the same as that of Adam; He created him from dust, then said to him, "Be," and he was.

Another verse on creation:
[2:29] It is He Who hath created for you all things that are on earth; Moreover His design comprehended the heavens, for He gave order and perfection to the seven firmaments; and of all things He hath perfect knowledge.
**the God of Islam told Adam(as) and Eve(as) that they were restricted from a certain tree in the Garden of Eden….. did the God of the Jews and the Christians not do this as well
[2:35] We said, "O Adam, live with your wife in Paradise, and eat therefrom generously, as you please, but do not approach this tree, lest you sin."

[2:286] On no soul doth God Place a burden greater than it can bear. It gets every good that it earns, and it suffers every ill that it earns. (Pray:) "Our Lord! Condemn us not if we forget or fall into error; our Lord! Lay not on us a burden Like that which Thou didst lay on those before us; Our Lord! Lay not on us a burden greater than we have strength to bear. Blot out our sins, and grant us forgiveness. Have mercy on us. Thou art our Protector; Help us against those who stand against faith."
[2:107] Knowest thou not that to God belongeth the dominion of the heavens and the earth? And besides Him ye have neither patron nor helper.
***if your answer was “no” to any of these questions then maybe we do not believe in the same God….. if your answer was “yes” to all is it not possible that there is only One True God that we all worship?

also... this is what the Quran says about Christians and Jews...
[2:62] Those who believe (in the Qur'an), and those who follow the Jewish (scriptures), and the Christians and the Sabians,- any who believe in God and the Last Day, and work righteousness, shall have their reward with their Lord; on them shall be no fear, nor shall they grieve.

short answer NO. We just have different views of what the Creator is and what is his will.
the charge that Muslims worship a "moon god" or a different G-d than Jews/Christians is silly and one should study Semitic history and find out where the name Elohim came from *hint El.
if anything Jews and Muslims worship the same creator more than Christians and Jews.
Jews and Muslims both believe in a indivisible G-d while Christians in large part follow a trinity

I agree with you: Jews, Christians, and Muslims worship the one God, the Creator and Sustainer of all that is. May God be praised forever!
And unfortunately, we have not always lived as if we believed and worshipped this God, who created and loves all people. Particularly when a given group has secular power, we are often tempted to use faith as a means to power and control rather than humbly accepting God's call to the love and peace you mention. I know that this has been the case for Christians. Though it is not my place to say that for others, it seems that this is part of the human condition.
I have been moved by some Islamic writings I have encountered, especially poetry and the 99 Names of God. And as a Christian, I gratefully acknowledge the Jewish scriptures as God's revelation through the covenant relationship with the Jewish people.
Nevertheless, though we worship the One God, the God of Abraham, we do believe some different things about the nature and will of God, things that are incompatible with each other. In the sense that we have understandings of God that are contradictory, it could be questioned whether we do believe in the same God: for example, I believe that the One God consists in three Persons (the Trinity) and this is clearly different from both Jewish and Islamic understandings of God. But let us pray that God the Source of all truth will teach us to love one another and respect the dignity of each human being, while drawing all of us closer to Truth, which is God's very being.

And jesus says the only thank you to his father god, is thru him. So there is the dilema. Jesus pronounced he additionally supplies a present to believers pronounced as tounges, you ever been to a church and heard 3000 human beings talking in and unknown language, he aslo pronounced he could supply the present of hearth, the 2d present interior the top circumstances, ever been hit by utilising a believer, feels like your on hearth, for it being pretend beneficial wakes you up :). You ever watched a guy cripled for existence, arise and be thoroughly healed? I certainly have, for being pretend and not adequate money for specific effects thats surprisingly stable. You ever seen a individual on their deathbead with maximum cancers, only days left to stay, then after a prayer the main cancers being without notice thoroughly long gone? Imposible by utilising scientific standards. you have self belief what you choose for too, i'm going to stick to the place the action is.

I do not mean to offend sincerely but I cannot logically believe that my Father God is your god Allah. I have read your prayers and I believe that if you were worshipping my Father God, by now muslims would own the world. I do shamefully admit that I may not pray to my Father God,whose only begotten son Jesus is my savior, as often as I should, but I am reminded quite often that Father God listens because He has kept me from death,and answered me all my life.

Not to be offensive, but...
The Jews had our faith long before Islam was even thought of. The faith of my people has been around for over 3.6 millenia.
As for Christians, which I am one of those too, their faith is almost entirely based upon Jewish traditions and Faith.
Christianity's doctrines were pretty much solidified by the time Islam came along.....Christianity, as a religion, predates Islam by almost 600 years.
So, the answer is a resounding, NO, WE DO NOT WORSHIP THE SAME DEITY...
Anyone who would say otherwise is ignorant of all three religions...

I truly believe that if I ever found out Jesus married and had sex with a 9 year old girl, I'd become an Athiest.
That's my basic stand.
Maybe YOU think sex with 9 year old girls is cool, I don't and I won't be a part of ANY philosophy or religion connected with such a concept. Nor would I ever PRAISE anyone who did such a thing, how don't care WHAT a given civilizations accepts as normalicy.
To me, doing a 9 year old of any sex, is abnormal.

We do not think that Muslims worship a different God. We know it. Our God does not permit the murder of innocent human beings.

I can't speak for someone of Jewish faith,but as a christian who has read the bible,and the Quran I do believe that we believe in the same god. However from what I see we have very different ideas past that. We believe that Jesus was the son of god. Muslims I have asked have told me they do not believe that he was,but do believe that he was a prophet. Also many christians do not believe that Muhummad was a prophet. I'm not trying to insult your beliefs. I'm just telling you that most of us don't believe that he was.
