No. These are completely different terms One is a language, and the other is a religion:

1. Hebrew is the language of the Jews and one of the official languages of Israel.

2. Muslim refers to a monotheistic religion of Arabs (and others) who live mainly in the Middle East and Africa. However there are large Muslim populations in many countries outside the Middle East. The main religious language of Muslims is Arabic.

'Islam' means submission (i.e. to God). The Jewish faith is also one of submission to God.

The word 'Jew' means a person of Hebrew descent or whose religion is Judaism.

The main holy book of Islam is the Koran, written by Muhammad in the 7th Century AD.

The holy book of the Jews is the Tanakh, a collection of holy books wriiten by various authors over a 1,000 year period from about 1500 BC to 500 BC.

Whilst having some things in common, there are many clear differences between the religious beliefs and customs of Islam and those of Judaism. The current conflicts in Israel/Palestine highlight the fact that 'Islam' and 'Jew' do not mean the same thing.
