The common factor of Judaism, Christianity, and Islam is monotheism.
Muslim Answer:Neither Islam nor Christianity adopted any idea from Judaism. The three religions are from same God. Neither of the three religions is human made or human invented religion to adopt or borrow ideas from previous religion or religions.Upon start of mankind, people were taught through God prophets to be on full submission (that means Islam) to God. All prophet missions; including Noah, Abraham, Moses, Jesus, and Muhammad, were assigned to call people for and teach them to hold submission (Islam) to the one and only one God, the Creator.
In this sense:
- Islam per God revelation of Torah to Moses is called Judaism.
- Islam per God revelation of The Bible to Jesus is called Christianity.
- Islam per God revelation of Quran to Muhammad is called the very name Islam.
Angels had been part of Judaic belief as found in the Hebrew Bible, and are now part of Christian and Islamic belief. The concept of Satan as the evil adversary of God is common to Christianity and Islam. In Judaism, Satan is a loyal assistant of God, tasked with testing the righteousness of the faithful.
Answer
The three God religions; Judaism, Christianity, and Islam: are created by God and hence the three God religions have the same main beliefs in one God, belief in angels, ... etc as the founder of the three religions is the same God. Accordingly, the claim that any religion adopted some ideas from other religions may not be generally true.

∙ 7y agoThere is no question that Islam, like Christianity, was heavily influenced by Judaism, directly and indirectly. Very many concepts and quotes in the Qur'an (the book of Islam) are taken verbatim from the Torah, the Hebrew prophets, and later Jewish teachings. The Talmud was already recorded in writing by no later than 500 CE*, before the time of Muhammad, making it a simple matter to quote from it too.*(Footnote: as stated in the Encyclopedia Brittanica, under "Talmud and Midrash.")
Examples:
1) Qur'an:
"...Whoever killed a human being, except as punishment for murder or other villainy, shall be deemed as though he had killed all mankind; and whoever saved a human life shall be deemed as though he had saved all mankind."
Judaism:
"Whoever kills a single individual it is considered that he has slain the entire world, but he who preserves the life of a single individual it is counted as if he has preserved the whole world." Mishnah Sanhedrin 4:5.
2) Qur'an:
The famous narrative of how the young Abraham smashed his father's idols -
Judaism:
- is taken from the Jewish midrash (Genesis Rabbah 38:11-13).
3) The following Hebrew-Bible characters are found in parallel Qur'an-narratives:
Adam, Enoch, Noah, Abraham, Lot, Ishmael, Isaac, Jacob, Joseph, Moses, Aaron, Jethro, David, Solomon, Elijah, Elisha, Jonah, Zachariah, and Job.
4) Arthur Jeffery writes in "The Foreign Vocabulary of the Quran", in page 1 of the introduction:
"One of the distinct impressions gleaned from a first perusal of the Quran, is that of the amount of material which is borrowed from the religions that were active in Arabia at the time when the Quran was in process of formation. It is plain that Muhammad drew his inspiration not from the religious life and experiences of his own land and his own people, but from the great monotheistic religions which were pressing down into Arabia in his day."
5) Charles Torrey in "The Jewish Foundation of Islam", writes on page 43:
"It was at home, not abroad, that the Muhammad received the Biblical and Haggadic narratives which occupy so large a part of the Koran."

What ideas did the Muslims borrow from the Jew's and Christin's?
Islam, Christianity and Judaism are known as the Abrahimic religions. They all have similar ideas as they have the same God. Islam believes in Jesus and Moses, but ideas were not borrowed. Islam kept religion as it is, whereas Christianity and Judaism changed their religions to suit society, which is why they seem so different to Islam today. The problem with this would be that they are human laws and are therefore, inevitably not going to be perfect.

Do Islam and Christianity have roots in Judaism?
Answer 1The three religions; Judaism, Christianity, and Islam; are revealed by same Godfor different groups. Accordingly, sure they should have some similarities insome aspects of worship and morals.Answer 2Christianity was founded by Jews. Namely Jesus and the Twelve Apostles wereall Jewish and as a result, Christianity still has a partial Jewish legacy. Much ofthe theology between Christianity and Judaism are different now, but theBiblical Scriptures still survive as evidence of this historical connection. TheLord's Prayer, as it is a direct quote from Jesus in the Bible, could just as easilybe used in a synagogue as a church because it does not allude to any ofChristian theology that Judaism does not accept.Islam is actually very similar to Judaism and shows this similarity quite readilywhen you examine Jewish laws from the contemporary period. Parts of theQur'an directly quote the Talmud (for example, "if you kill one man, it is if youhave killed all of humanity and if you save one man, it is if you have saved all ofhumanity"). The prohibition on eating pork, the requirements to fast periodically,the necessity of daily prayer, orthopraxis, required charitable donations, andother fundamental pillars of religion are shared between the two.Answer 3Yes they do. Judaism was started when Abraham left his family and homeland toa place that God would lead him. Christianity started because orthodox Jewsdid not believe that Jesus was the Messiah so those who did believe were notconsidered to be Jewish anymore. Islam was created by Mohammad and heused parts of Christianity and Judaism as well as his own ideas to create Islam.

How did Judaism affect Christianity?
Answer 1If anything Christianity affected Judaism, because the Jewish religion was around along time before the Christian religion, therefore Christianity affected Judaism negatively because more people converted to Christianity!Answer 2While Answer 1 may be correct in terms of the general direction of conversions, both forced and by choice, in terms of philosophy, literature, and general ideology, Christianity is fundamentally an outgrowth of Judaism. Before Christology developed as a Christian Discipline, the Jewish ideas of the Messiah, Redemption, and the End of Days helped to develop similar doctrines in Christianity. Christianity also carried forward the Jewish concept on Monotheism. Judaism also provided a backdrop for early Christians of the "unredeemed" and "pitiable" allowing them to claim a natural ascendancy and "betterness". This sense of superiority allowed Christian conquerors to knowingly subjugate America without regard for the indigenous cultures that they would displace and/or eradicate. Finally, the Bible used in Christianity is over 75% the same as that used in Judaism.
