Answer 2

The two cannot be accurately compared. They are two different books talking about two different deities. One can prove that He is the living God*, the other cannot.

1-There is only "one God", Allah
There is only one Living God - YHWH - Deut. 6:4–5

2- "Muhammad", was the last of the great prophets.
The last of the great prophets was John the Baptist. - Matt 11:13

3- The "Koran", was the last of the sacred books.
Revelation is the last of the sacred books. Gal. 1:8-9

4- "Life on Earth", is a test and only a preparation for the eternal life to come.
Life on earth is a choice to choose or reject God's Son and His redemptive work on the cross. - John 3:18-19

5- The "Final Judgment": The faithful will go to eternal Heaven, and the infidels to eternal Hell.
All are destined for hell because of sin. God gave His only Son to pay the price of sin and is offered as a free gift to All who would receive. - John 3:16
