In the Holy Qur'an (Surah 2 - The Cow) it says:
VERILY, those who have attained to faith [in this divine writ], as well as those who follow the Jewish faith, and the Christians, and the Sabians - all who believe in God and the Last Day and do righteous deeds - shall have their reward with their Sustainer; and no fear need they have, and neither shall they grieve.
...meaning salvation, in a sense of minimizing self-inflicted kinda-sorta-emotional suffering (not hellish fire - God is merciful).
It goes on to say Muslims should respect all places of worship that are dedicated to the one God.
Even though Jews, Muslims, and Christians all stand in front of the same God, is Islam the only one out of the three that respects the other two, believing they will all achieve salvation despite their differences in beliefs on the small stuff?

Muslims can not kill anyone for just being an 'infidel.' Muslims can only fight in self-defense, and even so they can not fight aggressively for God does not condone aggressors.
