Judaism, Christianity, and Islam all have roots that go back to Abraham.

Judaism follows writings up to the prophets, and study the history mainly of the descendants of Jacob, Abraham's grandson.

Christianity considers the writings of Judaism (under the name Old Testament) to be part of the Bible, but follows more closely the New Testament, which is based on Jesus and his followers.

Islam reveres Abraham--and Jesus, for that matter--but considers earlier writings to be superseded by the Koran.
