Do Christians and Muslims worship the same God?
Answer 1
Both religions teach that there is only one God. However, each religion differs on the details. Christianity teaches that the Father, Jesus, and the Holy Ghost are parts or different forms of God, and that Jesus is the son of God, God himself, and part of God; on the other hand, Islam teaches that Jesus was a messenger of God, and that God is one and has no partners or offspring.
Answer 2
Absolutely not. Both Muslims and Christians would agree with this proposition.
The Muslims worship Allah, who although with many similar attributes to the God of the Bible is essentially unknowable. The Christian God is triune and is worshiped by Christians as three divine persons in the one Godhead. Muslims say that Allah has no son. Christians say that Jesus is the Son of God and as equal with God is worthy of worship. To Muslims this idea is unthinkable as to them Jesus was only a prophet.
Both the Christian and Muslim positions on the central details of their faith has not changed since they began. Jesus came into conflict with the Jews for claiming to be God. In similar fashion, Christians are in disagreement today with Muslims over who Jesus is.
Answer 3
Actually they do. They do believe in God, God is the only one they worship. But they don't believe that Jesus is God's son, but they do believe in him.
Answer 4
Christians and Muslims both believe in the God of Abraham and Moses, etc. They believe that God (Elohim in Hebrew, Allah in Arabic) will call people to account, on the Day of Judgment.
There is disagreement, however, between Muslims and Christians about the nature of God. While Christians say that God had a 'son', and that God is a Trinity, Muslims remain true to the religion of Abraham and Moses - believing that God does not come to Earth in the form of anything, and that God is Absolutely Unique - no one else can be any kind of 'god' except the Real God.
One of the differences between Muslims and Jews, though, is that Muslims believe Jesus is the Messiah. They even believe that he will return. But when Jesus returns, according to Muslims, it will not be as a kind of 'god'; it will be to declare that:
There is no god but the One God, and Muhammad was the Final Messenger of God - whom Jesus was bringing the Good News about.
Answer 5
Allah means God. Yes. But the "infidel's" are not worshiping the same God. The word of Islam and the word of the Christians have too many contradictions to be the same God.
Answer 6
Yes, Both Christians and Muslims worship the same God (called in Arabic Allah). However, Most Christians worship God under the Trinity (father, son, and holy spirit) belief and believe that Jesus is God or son of God. Muslims worship God as the one and only one God with no partner, no son, no father, no companion, no associate, and no equivalence.
Answer 7
Yes, more accurately the Jews and Muslims worship the same God, the God of Abraham who revealed the Torah to Moses. However, Christianity claims to worship the same God of Abraham as the Jews, though there is debate among Christians of whether or not to claim the God of Islam as the same God or a different God. Even though the Qur'an testifies to the truth of the Gospel, Jesus being the Messiah and Mary being a pure and virtuous woman. Christianity started as a small Jewish sect with a strictly Unitarian God. However, by the 4th century of the Common Era, Christianity was split between a Unitarian God promoted by Priest Arius and a Trinitarian God promoted by Bishop Athanasius in what is known as the Arian Controversy. Each side became dominant for a time, but Athanasius' Trinitarian God (backed by the pagan Roman Government) came to dominate and the Arian Christians settled in the east and in northern Africa. When Islam spread in the 7th Century and encountered the Arian Christians, many of them embraced Islam and recognizing the human Jesus and unity of God which was cardinal to their Arian belief and found it also in Islam. With their conversion, Arianism vanished from Christianity forever and the controversy about who God and Jesus were changed from a debate within Christianity to a debate between two Abrahamic faiths. So really the answer is not so much yes or no, but rather does Christians worship the same God as the Jews and Muslims? If by god, the questioner means Jesus, YHVH and the Holy Ghost, then absolutely not because the Jews and Muslims neither one worship a Trinitarian God. But if the questioner means do Muslims, Jews and Christians all worship the unseen being that gave Moses the Torah and David the Psalms, then absolutely yes. To find out more about the Arian controversy and this period in Christian history, I'd recommend the book "When Jesus Became God: The Struggle to Define Christianity during the Last Days of Rome" by Richard E Rubenstein.

Why did Mohammad migrate to Medina in 622 -?
The Muslims in Makkah had been horribly persecuted, some tortured to death, by the pagan Quraysh and other Makkan tribes. Prophet Muhammad was determined to stay in Makkah, but encouraged other Muslims to flee to Madinah, where the local people welcomed them and incorporated them into local society. In spite of the Quryash's hatred of the Muslims and of Prophet Muhammad, they continued to give him their money and valuables to keep safe in his house in Makkah. Finally the Muslims learned that the Quraysh planned to attack Prophet Muhammad in his home. He and his best friend, Abu Bakr, slipped out of Makkah at night and started to travel north to Madinah. Prophet Muhammad, though leaving Makkah to escape religious persecution, was worried about that the valubles he had been given to safeguard. His last act before leaving Makkah was to instruct his cousin and son-in-law, Ali, to return the money and valuables to the Quraysh, the same people who were trying to kill him. Ali did this, scrupulously.

How can you tell if a prophet is really from god?
Different authorities give different criteria for how to recognise a prophet. Here are three that we find in the Bible.
- The prophecies must come true. If they don't, the prophet is false. While this is a very sound and objective quick test, not all prophecies are about predicting the future. It's all very well to test "Tyre will cease to be a city and become a fishing village," but how do you test, "The twelve gates of Paradise will each be like a giant pearl"?
- The general message from the prophet must in some way anticipate the crucifixion of Jesus or, if he lives after the time of Jesus, must look backwards to the crucifixion of Jesus and understand its importance.
- The prophet must be in a right relationship with God. While this is a more difficult criterion to assess objectively, he not only lives a virtuous life, but has a general attitude of recognising his own sinfulness and constantly repenting.
Muslims view
The second point above is not an evidence that someone is a real prophet of God. Otherwise, God prophets Noah, Abraham, Moses, and many others are not real God prophets. Quran is the Muslims holy book that reflects real God words revelation to prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him) states that Jesus (peace be upon him) was neither killed nor crucified but was raised up to the Heavens by God the All-Mighty and that Jesus will be back to earth per God will. There are many proofs that Quran is God holy book and not a human authored text. Refer to questions below.

Do Muslims have family that is non-Muslim?
Answer 1
yes many people who accepted islam he is not burn muslim after accepted islam he don't quote his family.prophet muhammad also have family member who not accepted islam bt still he was connected.
Answer 2
While there are certainly Muslims with non-Muslim family members, this is not the norm. Most Muslims, like most people of any faith, are born into that faith from a family that is exclusively of that faith. Non-Muslims who convert to Islam certainly retain their familial connections to their non-Muslim parents and family as far as the family is willing to take it (it ranges from apathy to high-interest to disownment). The reverse, when a Muslim converts out of Islam, is usually met with disownment by the Muslim family, but as Muslims are modernizing, some of them are taking the more pragmatic approach of incorporating the former Muslims into their lives while still disdaining their religious choices.

What was the relation of abu jahl with Prophet Muhammad?
He was the uncle of Prophet Muhammad in relation but not his real uncle (not his father's real brother...but his father's cousin) and He was a member of the Banu Makhzum clan of the Quraysh and one of the leaders in Mecca[1] prior to the city's surrender to Muhammad's army. Abu Jahl had a son, Ikrimah ibn Abu Jahl, who later converted to Islam. He was known as Abū l-Hakam, translated to English as "Father of Wisdom", meaning he was considered a wise man amongst the Quraysh. Abu Jahl was the bitterest opponent against the budding monotheistic religion and thus his belligerent stance earned him the name Abū Jahl أبو جهل, the Father of Ignorance.
