These are the major monotheist religions (believing on one and only one God).
Judaism is the basic religion, originated about 4 thousand years ago. Judaism is built on the the covenant between the Hebrews (Jews) and God.
Christianity and Islam were evolved and copied from Judaism. Christianity is about 2000 years old, Islam is about 700 years younger.

Four revelations of Allah (swt) are mentioned by name in the Qur’an: the Taurah, the Zaboor, the Injeel and the Qur’an.
Taurah, the revelation i.e. the Wahi given to Moosa (a. s.) i.e. Moses (pbuh).
Zaboor, the revelation i.e. the Wahi given to Dawood (a.s.) i.e. David (pbuh).
Injeel, the revelation i.e. the Wahi given to Isa (A.S.) ie. Jesus (pbuh).
‘Al-Qur’an’, the last and final Wahi i.e. revelation given to the last and final Messenger Muhammad (pbuh).
It is an article of faith for every Muslim to believe in all the Prophets of God and all revelations of God. However, the present day Bible has the first five books of the Old Testament attributed to Moses and the Psalms attributed to David. Moreover the New Testament or the four Gospels of the New Testament are not the Taurah, the Zaboor or the Injeel, which the Qur’an refers to. These books of the present day Bible may partly contain the word of God but these books are certainly not the exact, accurate and complete revelations given to the prophets.
The Qur’an presents all the different prophets of Allah as belonging to one single brotherhood; all had a similar prophetic mission and the same basic message. Because of this, the fundamental teachings of the major faiths cannot be contradictory, even if there has been a considerable passage of time between the different prophetic missions, because the source of these missions was one: Almighty God, Allah. This is why the Qur’an says that the differences which exist between various religions are not the responsibility of the prophets, but of the followers of these prophets who forgot part of what they had been taught, and furthermore, misinterpreted and changed the scriptures. The Qur’an cannot therefore be seen as a scripture which competes with the teachings of Moses, Jesus and the other prophets. On the contrary, it confirms, completes and perfects the messages that they brought to their people.
Another name for the Qur’an is the ‘The Furqan’ which means the criteria to judge the right from the wrong, and it is on the basis of the Qur’an that we can decipher which part of the previous scriptures can be considered to be the word of God.

Judaism would be first, Emphasizing Justice mercy and faithfulness particularly through the law of Moses and traditions
Jeus is seen at best as a good teacher. Traditions of the rabbis are very important. Jews are descendants of the promised child Isaac by birth
Christianity would be next, claiming to be the fullfilment of Judaism God is glorified as people lean on the work of Jesus on the cross, believing for eternal life Jesus is fully man and fully God and adoptimng believrs as his children and changing them, making them over. God is the centerpiece and highest treasure fo heaven and relationships are key In both Judaism and Christianity the old testment is accepted as scripture, singing is usually used in worship Christians are spiritual descendants of Abraham through the promised child Jesus by faith
Islam came in the 6th or 7th century claiming to be the fulfillment of both. God is not a father who loves and adopts sinners, Jesus is Messiah but did not die on the cross and was not divine.
God is said to be merciful, but thiis mercy seems more limited than rich. The Old and New Testaments are seen to be corrupt and ignored effectively... they do not sing or only minimally as a chant in worship... worship is done barefoot, fasting is emphasized God is least relational and more aloof in this Most descriptions of heaven are fairly man centered. Arab muslims are secendants of the many other children of Abraham such asw through Ishmael and also the children of Keturah the wife of Abraaham after Sarah died

Christians pray in Jesus name, Muslims pray 5 times a day to the East and follow Muhammad and believe in ALLAH as God, Jews don't beleive that Jesus is Savior and are still waiting for him (the Savior that is). Islam has been around longest contrary to popular belief. The Jews only believe in the first 5 books of the Bible called the Torah. True Christianity is the only one which holds an answer for the future.

They are more similar than different. Judaism came first, then Christianity (pre Pauline Christianity at least), then Islam. They are all in a way the same religion with bits added on or changed. Islam for example believes in Judaism and Christianity and recognises their holy books and prophets, it just has slightly different versions of the same events (e.g. Jesus' birth and death) and adds on Muhammed as a prophet and the revelations given to him.
Between Judaism and Islam there are a lot of similarities also, especially in terms of things like dietary requirements.

the similarities are that we all believe in the one God from a Muslim perspective that God is Allah and Jews and Christians alike foolow Allah. Muslims accept the Bible in it original form to be the word of Allah and all the prophets, kings and messengers mentioned in the old Torah we accept them all an d give agreat deal of respect to them all. the difference between christianity a nd judaism is that Jesus was a jew but the jewish people did not accept him as the messiah, so the followers of Jesus started their own religion and the jews are still waiting fir the messiah to come. the Muslims blieve that it was all one religion to begin with i.e. Islam and all the prophets were muslims. the idea is that to every nation a prophet wa sent with the same message and the people should have followed that prophet. so as the story continues Musa (Moses) was known to be jewish but he was actually muslim and after his message the peopel were supposed to follow his message until the nest prophet which was Isa (jesus) the jews were supposed to follow jesus but they didn't and then came Mohammed who brought the final message from Allah and in theory everyone was supposed to follow him. inpractice however we now have three seperate religions who have the same fundemantal belief there is only one god.
another differnece between Christianity and Muslims is that christians beleive that Jesus was crucified but Muslims believe that Allah raised Jesus to heaven and someone else took Jesus' place on the cross.
May Allah shower peace and blessings over all the prophets and their followers. ameen

Very Similar roots: ALl are abrahamic - descended from Abraham. Differences come in time
Judaism - Moses was a propher of god, and the Torah was revealed to him.
God sent down another revelation to a lter prophet (mind you , similar teachings ..just a reminder)...some people didn't see that and remained Jews (Moses)...and the people who recognised jesus as a prophet, followed him ...(christians)
Then times got back and God needed to remind people again...he sent down another one to Mohammed and in that book he revealed this would remain unchanged through time and to follow the teachings. The Qur'an. With any religion...some followed some didnt...thefollowers are muslims.
Religion/Book:
Jews: Torah
Christians: notice christianity teaches old and new testament.
Muslims: A muslim belives in moses and jesus being prophets too, and belive in the Qur'an as well as the original unchanged torah and bible. since they are reminders over time.

Christianity believes Jesus was the son of God. Judaism believes that Jesus was remarkably well adjusted for an only child, but was not the son of God. I don't really know what Islam is about.

Judaism - only for Jewish people .
Believe in God existing. But the definition of God that the Judaism believe not very clear.
Believe in prophet hood of Abraham, Isaac, Moses,
David, Solomon but not believe in prophet hood of
Jesus and Muhammad.
Christianity - exist after the Judaism.
For all people.
Believe in God but the God they believe in form of trinity - father, mother, and son.
They believe Jesus is son God.
Islam - Originally should be the religous of all people from the beginning of world until end of it.
The God , that they are believe have the characteristics like this : Only one God exist in this world and universe , called as ALLAH. Never been born and never give birth . There nothing in the world and universe will be same like ALLAH.
They believe in prophet hood of Adam, Noah, Abraham, Isaac, David, Solomon, Moses, Jesus and Muhammad

Islam is religion of peace, we believe in God, which has 99 names the most common name is "Allah"
We are not terrorist, Muslims are not all Muslims, and again it is a peace religion...Many people don't get that for some reason...
Although, I prefer if you read about those religions from the Internet(known websites about those religions), you would get into depth in each...
