I would guess more than 90% of Christians believe in the 10 commandments of the Old Testament, because they were conditioned to believe and follow The Bible unquestioned. But in closer inspection of the verses, I came to the conclusion that the 10 Commandments is exclusive only to the Hebrew Slaves in Egypt. Read the first Commandment in full. It was given to the Hebrew slaves only and not to any other tribe. It also say not to covet thy neighbor's (member of own tribe) house, ass (donkey), wife, slaves, etc. But it's OK to take other tribesmen's possession their wives, daughters, sons and even their life.
If you really want to study the 10 Commandments, Read the book "The Ten Commandments" by Joseph Lewis. The space alloted in this answer page is too limited to answer the questioner's inquiry.
BTW, I'm also a Christian and I follow Jesus' commandments as written in MT 19:17-19, MK 10:19 & LK 18:20, not the 10 Commandments of the Hebrews.

∙ 14y agoMuslims follow all of the principles set out in the Ten Commandments, but they do not list them in that way because they usually do not use the Bible as a text. Instead they use quotations from the Qu'ran. But all of the principles of the Ten Commandments are part of Islam.

Muslims don't follow the Ten Commandments -- it's a different religion.
Also, in modern times, people don't really follow the Ten Commandments to its fullest. There are those extremely religious people though...who might follow it.
Answer 2
Christianity recognizes the Ten Commandments of the Old Testament as binding and authoritative although each major Christian denomination has a different way of counting the various commandments and these all differ from the Jewish count. (i.e. Commandment 1 might be Commandment 2, etc.)
As for Islam, the Qur'an does not recognize the Ten Commandments as a set of ten special rules that are all grouped together, but all of the principles of the Ten Commandments are present in the Qur'an except for #3 (God's name in vain) and #4 (Sabbath day).

∙ 15y agoYes except one. Sabbath is not a day of rest. Muslims believe that God doesn't rest because he doesn't get tired.
