They can NOT both be right. It is two different and opposing philosophies that that mutually exclude each other in the way they see God, Life and salvation. They both could be wrong, but they can not be both right. If you believe in Jesus, he said: " I am the Way, the Truth, and the Life. No one comes to the Father, but through Me". That excludes all other religions emphatically. So he is either right or wrong. He is the only way or he is not the way at all. There is no in-between.

NO!
I have studied both texts. The Judeo-Christian God is a parent, guiding his children -- and Humanity as a whole -- through a tumultuous childhood. He loves men as a parent, with stern discipline, but understands that a child often has to make his own mistakes to really learn a lesson.
Allah is a tyrannical slave-master, who seems to spend an inordinate amount of time in Hell, devising tortures for those who deny him, even though they deny him because he deliberately stopped their ears and prevented them from knowing him. He is an imbecile who is constantly changing his story. He cares nothing about humanity, and is capricious in his forgiveness. He requires absolute obedience, although he seemed remarkably amenable to anything that made Muhammad's life easier.
The words of Jesus are the words of God. The words of Allah are an invention of Muhammad.

Jesus said, I am the Way, the Truth, and the Life. No one comes to the Father except through Me. (John 14:6)
Note the use of the article 'the'. He didn't say 'I am a way, a truth, a life, anyone can get to the Father in the way they choose, but I'm a pretty good choice.'
Psalm 40:4 ---
Blessed is the man who makes the LORD his trust, who does not look to the proud, to those who turn aside to false gods.
Matthew 7:15-17
"Watch out for false prophets. They come to you in sheep's clothing, but inwardly they are ferocious wolves. By their fruit you will recognize them. Do people pick grapes from thornbushes, or figs from thistles? Likewise every good tree bears good fruit, but a bad tree bears bad fruit."
2 Corinthians 11:3-6,12-15
"But I am afraid that just as Eve was deceived by the serpent's cunning, your minds may somehow be led astray from your sincere and pure devotion to Christ. For if someone comes to you and preaches a Jesus other than the Jesus we preached, or if you receive a different spirit from the one you received, or a different gospel from the one you accepted, you put up with it easily enough. But I do not think I am in the least inferior to those "super-apostles." I may not be a trained speaker, but I do have knowledge. We have made this perfectly clear to you in every way....
... And I will keep on doing what I am doing in order to cut the ground from under those who want an opportunity to be considered equal with us in the things they boast about. For such men are false apostles, deceitful workmen, masquerading as apostles of Christ. And no wonder, for Satan himself masquerades as an angel of light. It is not surprising, then, if his servants masquerade as servants of righteousness. Their end will be what their actions deserve."
It may sound appealing to think that everyone is right, surely no matter what "truth" you may find, things will be okay in the end, and that one religion or belief is as good as another, but that's not what God's Word tells us.

No. The Bible states that there is only one way to salvation through faith in Jesus Christ the son of God. The Quran states that to believe that Allah had a son would condemn you to death. it says in matthew somewhere that you can not serve two masters because you will serve one and hate the other or vice verse (paraphrased :D). SOoooo nope. They contradict eachother quite directly. But i'm not God so who nows. Did you no that the decendants of isacc from genises eventually made up christianity (because isacc's great great great ect grandaughter was Mary who was Jesus's mother) AND ishmeal's (ishmeal was the first son of Abraham but not the first son of Abraham and his wife but Abraham and his handmaid because Abraham and his wife lost patience and faith) decendant's formed islam. Anyway God did say that he would bless ishmeal's family even though he wasn't the miracle of isacc. So yeah. Read the Bible its very interesting. Mae an educated decision for youself!

The central teaching of Christianity is
"I am the Way, the Truth, and the Light. No one comes to the Father except through me." - Jesus Christ
Islam teaches a different path - one that does not follow Jesus, nor recognize Christ's Divinity.
Therefore, they cannot BOTH be correct.

Well, the bible in Christianity has changed over so many years by different people. but the qur'an has never been changed, not a single dot of the qur'an has been changed.
If you add or take away things from islam then it wont be islam anymore.
In Christianity a certain day in the week is kept holy but not in islam. In Christianity you go to church on Sundays but not in islam. In islam you go to the mosque. In islam you have to pray 5 times a day but a Christian just prays once or when needed to.
Islam celebrates Eid-ul-fitr and Eid-ul Adha but christains celebrate christmas. In islam no one is allowed to celebrate christmas in any way.
As i said from the beginning, you can not change anything or add something to islam or else it wont be islam anymore.
The religion islam has to be perfect and you have to do at least the basics of the religion such as praying 5 times, reading the qur'an, being a good human being through out your whole life and so on.
There are also many stories in Christianity and islam but not of them are related to each other.

No. God sent Mohammad because Jesus's message was distorted and changed. Take a look at the following links and see what you think.

Never, the two are fundamentally different! Almost the same story, different heroes. The Islam Allah is not the God if Christianity, no matter what anybody says. And please don't equate Mohamed with Jesus, the two have nothing in common!

There may be aspects of eternal truth in both -- but either Jesus Christ was the Son of God and atoned for the sins of all mankind [christianity] or he was not and did not [islam & others]

God is God alone. He said so. People who worship various books or religions could possibly be up on "idol" worship charges later on before God! Submit to NO religion! Submit ONLY to God. No religion can save.. none can save but God.
