If Muslims believe in the God of Abraham, the same god that distroyed Sodom and Gomorrah because of their sexual immorality, who do they think that God will reward them with virgins to bang in heaven?

You're assuming that:
Muslims believe the entire Jewish Old Testement
Muslims actually believe the 'virigins to bang' story.
Sodom and Gomorrah isn't just a "moral of the story" passage.
You're also confusing what supposedly happened at Sodom and Gomorrah - God supposedly destroyed Sodom for its men trying to anally rape a male angel, which would have little to do with being rewarded with marriage in heaven.

I'd suggest you spend some time reading up on the matter. Try CS Lewis, for one thing, he really knew what he was talking about. I can tell you what I essentially believe right now, but it is not a static thing. It changes quite a bit, as I learn more, and assess more, my thoughts on the matter change. Where I'm at right now, is seeing that there is a something, a god, God, Jobu, Krishna, etc... a creator, perhaps. And considering how many religions there are in this world, almost all of them claiming to be the one true religion or belief system, it is possible that one of them has it right. But it's also possible that none of them do. They are all manmade/run religions. Many of them claim to be more than that, claim to the the true faith of god, but they require mankind to run it and support it. My expectations are no longer very high. Ben Franklin said that there is a creator and that he ought to be worshipped. I agree wholeheartedly with the first sentiment, and don't see any harm in the second. Where is the harm in being thankful for your existence? For the wonderful things that happen in your life? In the beautiful planet which has been provided for us to enjoy as best we can? What does it matter what you call this being, this something? Will he take offense, given the odds you had against knowing it in the first place? Also, at the recommendation of my girlfriend, I've been looking into Gaia theory, which as best I understand so far is very metaphysical and involving the earth as a living breathing thing. The name Gaia comes from some very interesting roots, the kind that Christians tend to demonize, but in itself, is a very beautiful thing. Good luck in your quest. Understand that you won't learn it all now. It takes time, patience, and dedication.

The story that sodom and gomorrah destroyed because the men come to the messenger’s house and demand and insisted that his guests (they though that the angels were men) to be brought out so that they can attack and violate them.
