islam- Jesus, Mohammad, Adam, Ishmael, Abraham..etc.

I think there might be controversy defining what you mean by "complete". However, I would say "YES".
I think it's not only about recognizing prophets, but a bit deeper...
With due respect to Judaism and Christianity, I think that Islam does combine aspects that make it more "complete" than them. Judaism, for example, has a law, but lacks the deep spirituality of the teachings of Jesus, peace be upon him. Today's Christianity has lost the law system of Judaism, which is something that Jesus himself didn't abandon, but rather, Paul and his people.
Islam has a lot of richness in both the spiritual, the moral, and the law side of religion. It combines together things that neither Judaism nor Christianity could maintain. In this sense, yes Islam is more "complete" than these other religions.
Another point that's worth mentioning, is that when the leaders of Judaism and Christianity reached power, they not only did not tolerate other religions, but not even people from other currents within their very same religion. While Islam did manage to tolerate other beliefs and that's how big non-Muslim minorities survived in Muslim countries after more than 1400 years of the rule of Islam.
Peace/salaam.

It's a matter of where one draws the line of belief. Jews think Christians tacked a bunch of crazy stuff onto their Bible. Christians feel the same way about Islam. Nobody likes a new "interpretation" that turns theirs on its head.
The Latter Day Saints also believe their book "completes" the Bible. Would Muslims agree? Why not? If someone were to produce a "final" volume of divine revelation that completes and corrects the "errors" of the Quran, would Muslims embrace it enthusiastically? (What if it finally explained what "Alif Lam Mim" means?)
Do you see the problem?

what did mohammad do for Jesus? because the true Word of God is all about Jesus.
i can see the prophets proclaiming His coming, i can see Jesus in adam, i can even see Jesus when abraham the father bound his son isaac, on an alter... so show me how mohammad glorifies the Lord Jesus?

Okay the the difference would be
Christianity- The prophets foretold a Messaih to come and Jesus said He is It! There is no for telling of Mohammad to come and create a new religion.
Judaism- The prophets for tell of a Messiah to come, followers of Judaism don't believe that Jesus was the Messiah.
Islam- Dissents from what is taught in Christianity and Judaism. example Christians and Jews believe that Isaac was the Son of promise not Ishmael.
So i would have to disagree.

No you got it all back to front,
Abraham-Isaac and Ishmael was rejected, cast out,
Judaism is off
Salvation to all is on
Jesus is the Son of God
and was promised to Abraham and to Adam and Eve through the sacrifice picture
Islam Reject the salvation of Jesus Christ and consider Christians and Jews infedels

youve got it wrong. Muslims and Jews aknowledge Jesus' existence, but say he was not the son of God. muhammeds life was well documented, but agian Christianity and Judaism dont aknowledge his significance as Muslims do. if you want to look at it as Mohammed was the last prophet of Islam, Jews are waiting for the son of God, and Christians are waiting for the second coming of Jesus, then I suppose that Islam is complete.

Asalaamu Aleikum
Yes! Although I don't know very much about Judaism, Islam is pure because it is the original. Imagine this, we have a religion which is devoted to Al-lah, literally THE God. The One God, the First and the Last. Nothing about Jesus being God,

My answer is that all I need is Jesus and I don't really need Mohammed as the Bible is enough for me. Of course we revere Abraham as he is the father of monotheism. Ishmael was the first son but he did NOT receive Abraham's blessing, if you will remember, but rather Isaac did. There are sufficient prophets in our Old Testament for me.

yeah i kno what you're saying...but i wouldnt call islam abrahamic. See according to Judaism and Christianity, God made a covenant with abraham and thats how the religion went almost "i will bless/curse those who bless/curse you and you will be the father of nations and your children will number the stars" (my paraphrase)...abraham was just a prophet who "failed" to make everyone see who Allah was...but see the Jews are still on the Abrahamic covenant and the Mosaic Law
