How many gods did Abraham have? They both claim him as father. Ishmael for Muslims, Isaac for Christians.

The term Father is only used by Christians
However you do have a point. The same God blessed Isaac and Ishmael out of whom both Christianity and Islam are progenies respectively.
Even though the bible claims Isaac is the heir.

Galatians 4:30
But what does the Scripture say? “Cast out the bondwoman [Hagar] and her son [Ishmael], For never shall the son of the bondwoman be heir and share the inheritance with the son of the free woman.”


But have you noticed that Christians and Muslims always say they don't worship the same God?

In that case your question should be whether Christians worship the same God. And whether Muslims (Sunni, boko haram, etc) worship the same Allah.

We don't worship the same God.

Christians worship God of Abraham , Isaac and Jacob.

Muslims worship god of Abraham , Isaac and Ishmael .

The Christian God is the God that called the prophets in the Bible . Example , Abraham Moses , Elijah , Elisha , Jeremiah etc.

The Muslim god has only Muhammad as his prophet . '' There is no God but Allah and MUHAMMAD IS HIS PROPHET'' .
That is the hidden truth about Islam .
Other prophets of the Bible are not the prophet of Allah .

Christians can face anywhere to worship their God .
Muslims must face the kabah to worship their God .

Christians believe God is our Father .
Muslims believe they are slaves of God .

The god of the Muslims command them to kill Christians , which means he is not our God .

You know the answer to your question, but if you must know

All Muslim wants to worship God through the prophet Mohammed

All Christian wants to worship God in The Man Christ Jesus

But Islam does not lead to salvation

To answer your question; Here is
THE WORDS OF JESUS: to (Sadhu Sundar Singh)

The Disciple,—What is the meaning and purpose of the cross, and why do pain and suffering exist in the world?
The Master,— The cross is the key to heaven. At the moment when by My baptism I took
the cross upon My shoulders for the sake of sinners, heaven was opened, and by means of My thirty-three years bearing of the cross and by death upon it, heaven, which by reason of sin was closed to believers, was for ever opened to them.
Now as soon as believers take up their cross and follow Me they enter heaven through Me (John x.9) and begin the enjoyment of that unbounded bliss which the world cannot understand, for heaven is closed to unbelief. Hope and experience will teach the unbeliever that joy follows pain, but that that joy does not endure. But I give to My children ease in pain, and perfect happiness and peace.
Those who joyfully take up My cross are themselves upborne by it, and ever supported by that cross they enter heaven at last...

How we choose to spell god/God is dependent on the speller.lol Muslims spell their God as God just as Christians spell God as God.

It is only a Christian that would spell a Muslim God as small god. And vice versa.

Just as Christ said He is the only way to God. I believe Muslims also believe Muhammad is the way to God.
The question is that is this the same God or different Gods?
Bearing in mind that Jesus was a Jew yet some Christians say the God of the Jews is different from the Christian God.
Judaism, Christianity and Islam all share the same Father Abraham and other prophets. How then can they be serving different Gods?

How has that sacrifice differentiated you from a Muslim?
A lot of Muslims are even more christiane than Christians.

Oyebaba10:

And Christianity leads to salvation?

Salvation is relative.
I guess to a Christian only hope of heaven is seen as salvation.
To a Muslim, submitting to God's will, being saved from sinful ways, spiritual attacks, having a successful life and the hope of heaven is salvation.

So a Muslim would tell you Islam leads to salvation.

If I will be honest with you. Christian and Muslim don't serve the same God.

Muslim wants to serve the one and only true God but their religion is a deception and doctrine of Satan. The foundation of Islam is faulty

I remember I came accross an article about the foundation of Islam. I was told that the father of the prophet Mohammed is known as Abdhalla who was worshiping a deity called (Allah)

Abdhallah was a slave of a deity, an Idol called (allah)
Abdhallah gave birth to a son named Mohammed who continue from his father legacy and became the founder of Islam.

Mohammed became very powerful and started conquering nations and when he does succeed over a nayion he will introduce Islam to the nations he has vaptured through war, that is how Islam spread all over middle east

From experience when a man worship Idols, even after his death, one of his sons must continue the father's legacy as a priest to this deity.

@Myer
I am an introvert and I think a lot and can write an article and explain it to you more better but i just have to answer you in a hurry

I hope you perceived what Islam is all about?
