Because you are only seeing it from the Christian mindset and not from the Muslim mindset who absolutely believe that we all worship the same God.Really? Can you provide a quote from Muslim authority? Because, as I understand it, Islam says Allah has NO son. If their god has no son, and the Christian God has a Son (whom the Christian believes is one person of the triune God), surely the Muslim would say the Christian worships a false -- and thus different -- god.

At least that Muslim wouldn't be guilty of ecumenism, a more modern heresy. More Christians should take note.

The basic tenants of the Islam faith is that the Jews were the first to receive the revelation. The revelation was polluted in their care, hence came the second revelation to Jesus. Unfortunately, the Word was polluted again by Christians.
That's why God had to reveal it to Muhammad. It is a final revelation, and it has not been polluted since the Qur'an manages to get it down word for word correctly.
If you want to know what the Muslims believe, then do an Internet search... I'm sure you can find Muslim scholars who will be able to instruct you.
I know the differences between the three religions. I know they are irreconcilable. But, I am speaking from the vantage point of a Muslim... Allah is the God of Abraham, Moses, David, and Jesus and Mohammad is his prophet too. The last prophet.

If Islam believed what he said they believe, there would be no such thing as an "infidel" to them. What a silly thing for him to have said.
