Verified answer

In Islam

Jesus (pbuh) is not God and not the son of God. Jesus (pbuh) is a Holy Prophet just like the Prophets Abraham (pbuh), Noah (pbuh), Moses (pbuh) and Mohammed (pbuh).

God is one, pure, and clean from all defects. He is the only one worthy of worship. He has no beginning nor does he have an end. He has no partner.

The earth, sky, stars, sun, everything was created by him alone, and he is the master of all things. He has the ability to make a person rich or poor. He gives things life and death by his command. He is pure from and relations e.g. Father, mother, son, daughter, etc. He does not have face or body and nothing is like Him, he is free from any position or place.

A Christian believes that Jesus delivered the ultimate message. A Muslim believes that Muhammad did. Muslims recognize Jesus as a prophet but do not believe in his divinity or resurrection. Many Christians believe (as do I -- I'm an agnostic) that Muhammad was a charlatan. There are differences between the aspects of the deities in the two religions -- the Islamic perception of God is much more "If you don't do as I say, I'll punish you severely" than is the Christian perception, which tends to have more emphasis on love.

You are correct in the first part. Muslims believe that Mohammed and Jesus are prophets, whereas Christians believe that Jesus is the Son of God, sent by Him to save mankind from their sins according to the Bible, John 3:16 and many other verses. Muslims don't accept that fact. This is the major difference between Muslims and Christians. The other part is the acceptance of Trinity. The Muslims don't accept the Trinity, God the Father, God the Son and God the Holy Spirit whereas for Christians it is a major theological point.

In Islam God is One. There is no Trinity. Jesus is a prophet of God, and like all his fellow prophets, he is a human being. We love him, and believe in him, and affirm all of his miracles, bestowed upon him as a favour from his Lord. He called for the worship of God alone and for righteousness - as every prophet of God has done. However, his pure monotheistic message was gradually changed by 'Christians' into a polytheistic one, by transforming Jesus(the servant of God, into a mythological God-incarnate figure to be worshipped alongside God All-Mighty.

The word "Allah" is simply the Arabic word for Almighty God, and is the same word used by Arabic speaking Christians and Jews. If one were to pick up an Arabic translation of the Bible, one would see the word "Allah" being use where the word "God" is used in English. Actually, the Arabic word for Almighty God, "Allah", is quite similiar to the word for God in other Semitic languages — for example, the Hebrew word for God is "Elah". For various reasons, some non-Muslims mistakenly believe that Muslims worship a different God than Jews and Christians. This is certainly not the case, since the Pure Monotheism of Islam calls all people to the worship of the God of Noah, Abraham, Moses, Jesus and all of the other prophets. However, even though Jews, Christians and Muslims worship the same God — since there is only one God — their concepts concerning Him differ in some significant ways.

Muslims believe in GOD(in arabic Allah), the Supreme and Eternal, Infinite and Mighty, Merciful and Compassionate, The Creator and The Provider, He begets not, nor was He begotten, and there is none equal or comparable unto Him.

It is sad that most of the people who answer questions here do not know their faith properly.

Basically god is one, he sent religions and messengers to humans for a certain period, for a group of people, for particular time, so god says in his last revelation the quran that he completes Islam as the religion for humans and that we should follow it until the last day.

It will take a long read to properly understand the concept of both the religions but the basic difference is that Muslims believe that Jesus was a prophet a messenger from Allah who preached good things and that he was raised to the heavens when people came to kill him and another resembling him was replaced by god and that Jesus will come down to earth during the last days

Jesus IS GOD to most Christians. He was a prophet to Muslims. Thus proving that the Christian God and Muslim God cannot be the same.

Muslim and Christians believe in God. Christians believe that Jesus is God, and also the Holy Spirit, who was sent to earth in human form to die for our sins, (that is the Holy Trinity Mystery). Muslims believe in Jesus as one of the greatest Prophets, asides from Mohammed, but not as a God.

I don't believe it is the same god. How can God contradict Himself? Once you deny Jesus as the son of God and claim that God told you, it becomes god (not God). Christians believe that Jesus is the son of God, he died for us, and was resurrected. Islam says that Jesus was a prophet. A good teacher at best. In christianity, Jesus provided a way for you to go to heaven. You need only believe who he is and what he did, repent and turn from your sin, and put all your trust in him. In Islam, you attempt to earn your way to heaven not ever really knowing if you'll get in.

First of all, Islam has no authority over Christianity since Islam popped up on the scene many, many centuries later after Christ. God made it clear not to add "extra" doctrine to the Bible, yet Muhammad rewrote the whole entire Bible in the 7th century. He denied the divine characteristics of Jesus, and also called his crucifixion & ressurection a hoax that was meant to fool the jews. We do not worship the same God. Muhammad worshipped a pagan moon idol, this is where the crescent moon symbol comes from that you see on most all arab/Muslim national flags today. Muhammad considered his pagan moon diety to be the "one true god", so he rewrote the whole Bible and called it the quran in dedication to his "moon" god.

Muslims believe that Jesus Christ is just a prophet who died but did not rise again. Christians on the other hand, believe that Christ is the Savior of the world. He came to earth as the incarnate Son of God, was born of a virgin, lived a blameless life, was crucified (that is nailed to a cross), and rose again after three days. After His resurrection He ascended into heaven and is seated at the right hand of God, and will come again to redeem those who believe in Him and accept Him as their personal Savior
