What is the difference between God in Judaism and Islam?

Answer 1

Answer AThere is only one God, the one and the only one God to be worshiped according to any heaven-sent religion.. This is the basic objective of God revelations to all prophets including Adam, Noah, Abraham, Isac, Ismael, Jacob, Moses, David, Solomon, Jesus until Mohamed (peace upon all of them). All prophets, from the creation of Adam to last prophet Mohamed, are calling for full submission (that means Islam in Arabic) to the one and the only one God.

Judaism is the religion according to God revelation to Prophet Moses. Christianity is the religion according to God revelation to Prophet Jesus. The very name Islam is the religion according to God revelation to Prophet Mohamed.

Some Christians believe that Jesus is God or son of God. This is not the case in Islam religion.

Jesus was born as miracle by the word and command of God. This command is, as said in Quran, the same command that had brought Adam into being with neither a father nor a mother. The God command was to Adam as well as to Jesus is "Be!" and he came into being.

During the prophetic mission of Jesus (peace be upon him), Jesus performed many miracles by God's will. God tells us that Jesus said:

"I have come to you with a sign from your Lord. I make for you the shape of a bird out of clay, I breathe into it, and it becomes a bird by God's permission. I heal the blind from birth and the leper. And I bring the dead to life by God's permission. And I tell you what you eat and what you store in your houses...."(Quran, 3/49)

In ,Quran there is a complete chapter titled 'Maryam' (Mary) that confirms Maryam virgin birth. The Quran states the following on the birth of Jesus (peace be upon him):

(Remember) when the angels said, "O Mary, God gives you good news of a word from Him (God), whose name is the Messiah Jesus, son of Mary, revered in this world and the Hereafter, and one of those brought near (to God). He will speak to the people from his cradle and as a man, and he is of the righteous." She said, "My Lord, how can I have a child when no mortal has touched me?" He said, "So (it will be). God creates what He wills. If He decrees a thing, He says to it only, 'Be!' and it is." (Quran, 3:45-47)

In Islam religion, Jesus (peace be upon him) is believed as one of the greatest prophets and one of the greatest messengers of God to mankind. So, Jesus (peace upon him) as messenger of God, believes, for sure, in God and the only one God. He never claimed that he is son of God or God and never called his followers to worship him. Surah 112 - Al Ikhlas THE PURITY OF FAITH

Say: He is God, the One and Only;

God, the Eternal, Absolute;

He begetteth not, nor is He begotten;

And there is none like unto Him.

Answer B ( The Christian view)Jesus is ALL human and ALL God, in the Christian New Testament. Mary was conceived BY God, not Joseph, hence the term 'virgin birth'. Jesus is not a 'prophet of God' as described in the Muslim view above, but ONE WITH God, implying a shared personality, as well as with the 'Holy Spirit'- which is what distinguishes the Christian God: The three Persons ( or 'personalities' of God ) Jews and Muslims do not accept Jesus Christ as other than a prophet, and Christians do not accept Muhammed as a prophet- defined as 100% proven and infallible. Jesus performed miracles, including bringing Lazuras back to life. Only God can create life, so this miracle witnessed by 50 persons shows Jesus Godhood. If this question seeks to learn the difference- this is the correct Christian view.

Allaah has only recently been equivocated as the same God after the events of Sept. 11,2001 in the U.S. in an effort to prevent clashes between Muslims,

Christians and Jews in response to Muslim demands that equality be inferred.

The first commandment in Dueteronomy ,of the Old Testament revered as the inspired word of God in the Judeo Christian Bible is in Deuteronomy:

~Deut 5:6" I am the Lord thy God who brought you out of Egypt. 5:7You shall have no other gods before Me...

5:9 for I, the Lord your God am a jelous God..5:11 " You shall not misuse the name of the Lord, your God,for the lord will not hold anyone guiltless who misuses his name."

Answer 2

There are no differences between the Jewish and Muslim conceptions of God. Both claim that he is an all-powerful and all-knowing God (up to the point where those two terms contradict each other), whose dominant attributes are justice and mercy. He has no equal, is beyond time, and is the cause and progenitor of all things. He gives lands, prophecies, and assistance to those he chooses based on the righteous acts of those people. This conception of a singular, all-powerful God is quite different than the Christian conception of God which is founded in Love and in the Trinity, the former being of lesser importance in Judaism and Islam and the latter being heretical.
