To my personal belief, there are many. But most will beg to differ. But I will give you one example. If you have ever heard of vishnu, he has one last avatar coming. He will be in the form of kalki. Destroyer of filth. Or he is filth himself. Meaning, for all people know he is already here but few dare to recognise. Like a homeless man laying on the street. What most would consider a bum or filth, I consider to be kalki. It is said he will decend on the earth when the last devotee is/was no more. To me, that was the prophet muhammad(pbuh) because he is the last of the prophets. It is said that kalki will come and destroy with the wrath of nature at the end of this era of kali yoga we are in now. His avatar has him riding a white horse brandishing a comet like sword. There are many similarites, but is considered blasphemous. But vey much relevant. The only reason I even care to learn about this is because I am half chinese and am islamic. Convert. So no man can tell me what is and what is not. ONLY ALLAH. Minus his intecessors.
Anyways, that is just one similarity. But you really don't want to know what I really believe. And btw, to the misconception of most, hindus do have ONE GOD that is sovereign. Even though they are polytheistic, they essentially have one true GOD. He is called brahman. Beyond gender is just one of the characteristics. Impermeable. But from that comes many gods. Even original man that is defined as purushna(I think I spelled that incorrectly).
Just like any other GOD, brahman later got added on and is no longer seen sovereign by most. Just like jehova(is now a trinity). There are many similarities, but is considered blasphemous. But I still take no lord but allah. La ilaha ilallah.
*another bonus one:) On the day of resurection allah will adress mankind, "I AM TRUE KING. Who are the kings of earth?". I for one can not stand for that one. But people like Rama are. I accept they sit amongst each others as great kings. From nimrod(pbuh) to david(pbuh) to solomon(pbuh) to Rama. Just a thought. Rama is one of the most beloved avatars of vishnu in hinduism. The difference is I stand for what I believe in and that is what makes me a martyre. The very essence that makes me a martyre is my heart. But I still take no lord but allah. PEACE!

Hinduism is the oldest religion. There few similarities. Both groups involve people. They both pray. Have buildings to pray in. They each have special diets. But hinduism has less dogma then Islam. Islam is all about dogma, and following rules.

there is no similarity, the basic of Islam is one Allah and for Hinduism is numerous gods, no need to go to the next step

They're not. Islam is a lot more like Judaism and Christianity. And Hinduism is I spose a little like Islam in that it is a religion but that's all!

Not at all. Muslims are strict monotheists and Hindus (for the most part) are polytheists.

If you can see the similarity in their differences then: One God says love and the other God says hate.
