I assume you mean Jews and Muslims. Arabs come in all faiths as do many people.
The answer to your question is NO.
Allah is not the same God that the Jews pray to.
The Torah tells one who God is and it is not the same as what the Muslim Quran says Allah is.

Um well if you mean Arab Muslims and Jewish believe in the same God and Prey to him then yes. they both believe in the oneness of the God of Abraham and Muslims believe in both the Torah and Bible (however they believe that people have tampered with them throughout history, which is why the believe the Quran was sent down as a final testament. Muslims believe in Christ and if you study all three monotheistic religions you will actually find that the similarities between Christianity and Islam is much more prevalent then that of Christianity and Judaism.

Yep. Ironically Islam and Judaism are closer and more similar than Christianity and Judaism, even though historically Jews and Muslims haven't been the best of friends...
And at least Muslims aren't arrogant in the way that SOME Christians are, when they insist that the NT 'completes' the OT, or Tanakh.

Yup, as Muslims, Christians and Jews believe in there being only 1 God, so they do pray to the same God. Its their interpretations on religious rituals that are different.

We all prey to one God and we all love God in different ways. Yet some think their way is the only right way and there is no other way to prey to God but their way.
Here is what God is saying about the issue:
"Say: we believe in God and in what has been revealed to us, and what was revealed to Abraham, Isma'il: Isaac, Jacob and The Tribes, and in (the Books) given to Moses, Jesus and the Prophets, from their Lord: We make no distinction between one and another, among them, and to God do we bow our will (in Islam)." (Qur'an, Al-Imran 3:84)

If by Arabs you mean Muslims then yes.
We might disagree on a few aspects of his nature, but anyone with a basic understanding of theology would answer in the affirmative.

If you mean pray, then some do and some don't. Arab Muslims pray to the same G-d as Jews but Christian Arabs don't if they believe in the trinity and pray to Jesus.

As both Jews and Muslims believe in only one God, the logical conclusion is that it is in fact the same God. Furthermore, as Muslims believe that the Koran is only an update of the existing Old Testament, both Jews and Muslims have the same deity.
