NO!
The idea that there is only one God has caused a lot of confusion.

There are many spirits claiming God so it's left to each individual who have love for God to figure it out.

I've seen Muslims and Christians work together, pray together, each together without any issue.

That's enough for me to know we are one.

I agree with you 100%. I wish people can understand this about life. Complications has made us think differently.

I've seen Muslims display more Christ-like love than many Christians. If they worship a different God, that God seems to produce the same fruts as mine.

Reading medieval Christian texts on Islam, I was surprised by their respect. They called Muslims "Saracens" who worshipped the Creator, even while calling Muhammad a false prophet.

Very simple answer, NO!

Important distinction: "Allah" is not a name like "Zeus." It's the Arabic word for "the God", used by Arabic-speaking Christians, Jews, and Muslims alike.

You don't know the meaning of that word "CHRISTIAN"
Most people think it means being nice but that's not the indepth meaning.
Each religion has a specific kind of fruit that's hidden even from adherents of these religions.
So if you don't know the fruit your own religion supposed to produce then you will be lost thinking you are all worshiping the same Spirit (God)

What fruit is Christianity is expected to produce?

For your information being nice or kind can come from anyone even the worst religion you can think of.

WHY?

Because God created us in His image {Genesis 1:26} this means each human has an atom of Godly quality in them then comes RELIGION which reshapes you either for the better or worse, the true religion will surely improves Godly qualities in you while a false religion will make it to depreciate.

That is why you need to know the fruit your own religion supposed to produce!

Muslims believe in Jesus' virgin birth, miracles, and return, but deny His divinity and crucifixion. This partial overlap is why the "same God" question is complex.

The Trinity isn't just a Christian quirk, it's central to Christian identity. Muslims see it as shirk (associating partners with God), the unforgivable sin. This is serious divergence.

Is there any verse in the Bible where the highlighted is mentioned?

Interesting but why bother the individual regardless of religion has the relationship with God. The worshipped and worshipping are what is most important. They know themselves with that worshipped God knowing all.

What we see in Christian theology is not a completely separate foundation, but a reinterpretation of earlier Jewish teachings.
For example, Passover originally had a fixed structure and meaning centered on deliverance, not atonement. Yet in later Christian thought, its timing becomes debated across the Gospel accounts, and its meaning is extended into a sin-bearing framework. Likewise, the broader sacrificial system is no longer maintained as an ongoing practice but is understood as fulfilled in a single offering.

Even the core declaration of pure monotheism develops into the more complex formulation of the Trinity. So the issue is not just disagreement but how earlier teachings are re-expressed and reshaped over time.

As for whether Muslims and Christians worship the same God, the answer requires precision. Both claim to worship the God of Abraham, the one Creator. In that sense, the reference point is the same. However, the understanding of God differs significantly:

In Islam God is absolutely One, without partners or divisions while in Christianity: God is understood through the Trinity.

So while the intended object of worship may be the same in origin, the concept of God is not the same, and that difference is foundational.

Jesus is the founder of Christianity he told his own disciples saying:

"By their fruits you will know" Matthew 7:16

What fruit do you expect in your religion to ascertain that you are one of the worshipers of the true God?

Yet, they have different principles eg allah says it is ok to murder people who did nothing to you whereas God, "strive with no one without cause"
