No. They are two different things entirely. The earliest evidence for elements of Hinduism dates back as far as the late neolithic, to the early Harappan period (ca. 5500–3300 BCE). In recognition of these ancient elements, it is claimed that Hinduism is the oldest surviving religion. The beliefs and practices of the pre-classical era (ca. 1500-500 BCE) are called the "Vedic religion". The oldest surviving text of Hinduism is the Rigveda and is dated to between 1700–1100 BCE, based on linguistic and philological evidence. Islam , on the other hand, began in Arabia in the 7th century under the leadership of Muhammad, who united the tribes of Arabia under Islamic law.

NO. And I am glad because I am a Hindu, and Musilms have terrorized my me my whole life, and I'm only 13. My mom's friend from medical school is a Muslim, and the Muslim women kept telling my mom bad things about the man she loved who was my father. Now my father is dead. Hinduism is the oldest religion in existance. Islam is the total opposite of Hinduism.

Hinduism (if that's the word, which I think it isn't) long pre-dated Islam, which is relatively new.

Nope. Islam is much closer to Christianity and Judaism as they are all monotheistic. Hindu is polytheistic and maybe more closely resembles Buddhism in thoughts of after-life, enlightenment, kharma, and reincarnation, as well as both having roots in current-day India.
