Major difference? Jesus-Christians claim he died and is the son of God and God at the same time.
Muslims believe there is only one God and no trinity. Jesus was a prophet and did not die (he was raised up) and is the son of God in the same way that Adam could be considered son of God.

Christians say, "We believe in one God....etc etc"
Muslims say, "We bear WITNESS that there is only One God and Muhammad is his messenger."

note: Christians say believe Muslims on the other hand are being a witness to a fact

How Jesus is viewed is the big one. Christians believe he is the "son" of God and that he was sent here to be our savior, that he will come again and only those who have accepted him as their savior will be allowed into Heaven. The Muslims believe in the story of Christ, they have a chapter on Mary and Jesus in the Koran but he is viewed as a prophet. They believe that there was another (the last prophet) Muhammad (pbuh). They follow his teachings and the 5 pillars of Islam. The basis of the one true God/Allah and our purpose of life is the same. We are here to worship God and to repopulate and teach our offspring to repopulate as well. There are many misconceptions by both parties on both religions but in reality, a true believer would understand and respect the others beliefs. In addition an Muslim man is allowed to marry a Christian or a Jew without conversion...I only add this because I have seen a lot of ppl say that isn't true but I have studied and know that as a Christian woman, I would not have to take my Shahada (revert/convert) to Islam to marry a Muslim man. Hope this helps! May God bless us all!!

I call Islam a sister branch of Christanity. There are many similarities between these religions/
Here are the following smililarities:
Quran
He merges Night into Day, and he merges Day into Night, and he has subjected the sun and the moon (to his Law):
Bible
Then God said, "Let there be lights in the expanse of the heavens to separate the day from the night,
and let them be for signs and for seasons and for days and years
Quran
Allah is He Who raised the heavens without any pillars that ye can see is firmly established on the throne (of authority). He has subjected the sun and the moon (to his Law)! Each one runs (its course) for a term appointed. He doth regulate all affairs, explaining the signs in detail, that ye may believe with certainty in the meeting with your Lord.
Bible
In the beginning God created the heavens and the earth. The earth was formless and void, and darkness was over the surface of the deep, and the Spirit of God was moving over the surface of the waters
Quran-
Behold! thy Lord said to the angels: "I am about to create man from sounding clay from mud molded
into shape; when I have fashioned him (in due proportion) and breathed into him of My spirit fall ye down in obeisance unto him.
Bible
Then the Lord God formed man of dust from the ground, and breathed into his nostrils the breath of life; and man became a living being.
Quran
Avoid filthy rites associated with idols and also false invocations, remaining firm in faith towards God, without associating anyone with Him. And whosoever associates aught with God, it is as if he has fallen from on high and the birds snatch him away or the wind blows him to a distant place
Bible
You shall not make for yourself an idol, or any likeness of what is in heaven above or on the earth beneath or in the water under the earth

Simply put, Muslims dont accept Jesus as the Son Of God. They say God could not have a Son. They also say that the Quran is from God. Their Book is 1300 years old. The Bible over 3,000 years old. Therefore according to them, all the Prophets of old who followed the sacred scrolls were all lost and this new book the Quran is the Authentic one. Go figure.
Mohommad also elevates himself above Jesus in saying his the last prophet to come and that Jesus was a " stepping Stone " for him.. What an Arrogant statement ..

The Christian prophet taught this:
Mat 5:44 But I say unto you, Love your enemies, bless them that curse you, do good to them that hate you, and pray for them which despitefully use you, and persecute you;
Mat 5:45 That ye may be the children of your Father which is in heaven: for he maketh his sun to rise on the evil and on the good, and sendeth rain on the just and on the unjust.

The Muslim prophet teaches this:
