Islam has no similarity to the Torah, which is the first five books of the Bible.

Not quite. The Quran was written like people write "fan fiction" of Star Wars. He includes events from the Torah such as the creation of Adam, the flood of Noah, and the story of Moses leading the Israelites out of Egypt, and the Patriarchs.

He even ridiculously retells the binding of Issac but with Ishmael in his place, and - reflecting his bloodthirsty nature - actually has Abraham draw blood from Ishmael's neck before the angel stops him. Then, absurdly, he claims that Abraham and Ishmael built their stupid "Kaaba" idol in Mecca, despite the fact that Abraham never stepped foot in Arabia, and the Kaaba was built 2,621 years after Abraham's death.

If a literary comparison must be made in the fan fiction vein, the most accurate would be “mirror universe” stories.
