How do the Muslims connect with Jews and Christians?

Answer 1

A:

Muslims, Christians and Jews are related by their belief in the same God. They are theologically related in that Christianity originally arose out of Judaism, then later Islam arose out of both Christianity and Judaism.

However, in terms of the people, there are no strong ethnic ties between the members of the three religions (even though there can be some crossovers).

Answer 2

In reality, there really is no similarity or connection to best describe the Judeo-Christian beliefs of God to the Muslim Islamic belief. Judaism and Christianity have the Old Testament in common. Islam believes both Old Testament and New Testament have been partially corrupted in transmission while the Koran is believed by Muslims to be the final and infallible revelation of God's will. Though Muslims believe in God which they call Allah, Islam teaches that Allah is all-powerful, sovereign and 'unknowable' while Judaism and Christianity both teach the Creator God to be revealed as merciful, compassionate and knowable (see Jeremiah 9:24 and John 17:3). The Christian text teaches the God of the Old Testament was the Word and it was He who Abraham and the other patriarchs and prophets worshiped. Islam teaches the Word, aka Jesus 'as one of perhaps 124,000 messengers of prophets Allah has sent and is one of the 25 listed in the Koran - but He is not the redeemer' (Marvin Olasky, "Islam vs. Liberty," World, Sept 10, 2011).Lastly, the Quran never presents Allah as a god of love. Conversely, for the Jews and Christians, God keeps His covenant of love forever (see Deuteronomy 7:9 and 1 John 4:7-16) In short, God is love . All in all, there are more differences and conflicts between the Judeo-Christian texts and the Muslim text, as well as how the Koran conflicts with secular history.
