I'm not gonna lie Islam is for the strong, not for the weak, although it is not an official saying for Islam. "Islam is like a rubber ball the harder you hit it the harder it will bounce back."
It will much harder for you if you choose in between. But if you like Islam, no-one on earth can stop you because Allah the almighty is a freind and protector of those who believe.

Well from what I hear catholics aren't very spiritual anyways they are just interested in the religion of it meaning the sacrements so I guess you could do both but I would reccomend sticking to one faith. I am not saying that one faith is greater then the others, to quote Selma Hayek from the movie Dogma she says that people don't get it, it is not what you believe just that you believe and have faith in something

dont mean to be a downer but i dont think itd be possible. i mean they are both full religions, and to be fully faithful in God you have to choose the right religion for you, and follow it fully. that doesnt mean you cant agree with catholics, or vice versa. just like if you are fully american, and you like the italian lifestyle. you cant try to follow both or before soon youll be worn out. but at the same time it doesnt mean you cant choose one and like the other one too. but who am i to stop you. hope you find the right way. :D good luck.

Absolutely not!!! If you want to be a Muslim and follow ISlam you must give up your beliefs in the Trinity and your beliefs that Jesus is Son of God or in any way divine
"O people of the Scripture (Jews and Christians)! Do not exceed the limits in your religion, nor say of Allah aught but the truth. The Messiah Iesa (Jesus), son of Maryam (Mary), was (no more than) a Messenger of Allah and His Word, ("Be!" - and he was) which He bestowed on Maryam (Mary) and a spirit (Rooh) created by Him; so believe in Allah and His Messengers. Say not: "Three (Trinity)!" Cease! (it is) better for you. For Allah is (the only) One Ilah (God), Glory be to Him (Far Exalted is He) above having a son. To Him belongs all that is in the heavens and all that is in the earth. And Allah is AllSufficient as a Disposer of affairs."
( سÙرة اÙÙساء , An-Nisa, Chapter #4, Verse #171)
"Surely, disbelievers are those who said: "Allah is the third of the three (in a Trinity)." But there is no ilah (god) (none who has the right to be worshipped) but One Ilah (God -Allah). And if they cease not from what they say, verily, a painful torment will befall the disbelievers among them."

Not really.
Jews, Christians, and Muslims worship the one true God of Abraham.
Unfortunately we understand God and Jesus in very different ways.
Catholics believe that Jesus Christ is God the Son, the second person of the Holy Trinity.
Muslims believe that Jesus is only a prophet and God is not a trinity.
A person cannot logically embrace both beliefs.
With love in Christ.

No, because some of the core beliefs are quite different. One of the biggies is that Muslims do not believe that Jesus is divine - the Son of God.
If there are Muslim practices that you like, see if you can incorporate them into how you live your Catholic faith. There are many practices such as fasting, prayer, and almsgiving that are similar.

I do not know enough about either to be able to say whether or not you can practice both. But i do believe that we as spiritual beings, should do all we can to educate ourselves in all beliefs and religions...

No. My advice is to not follow any organised religion. That includes stupid ones like satanism. Just be the best person you can be, don't intentionally hurt anyone and you'll do just fine.

Islam is based on revised (and fictionalized) history. I don't think you'll adjust well if you are an honest person.
