Is there only one God for all Christians Jews and Muslims? Dennis Prager presents an excellent evaluation of the question

Christians, Jews, and Muslims do not worship the same God. There are major differences in whom they define God to be.

Dennis Prager was doing fine until he wrote this sentence:

"For example, what about Christians who believe in the God of Israel but also believe, by definition, in the Christian Trinity? Do they believe in the same God as Jews and other non-Christians who solely believe in these three criteria? I think they do. And the same would hold true for a Muslim who believes in these three notions but also believes that the Quran is the only fully valid revelation."

Jews do not believe in the trinity or that Jesus is the Son of God, or that He is their Messiah.

A muslim cannot possibly believe the Qur'an and believe what the Bible teaches about the God of Israel, nor can they believe that Jesus is divine, i.e., that Jesus is God. Muhammad ib the Qur'an denies these teachings.

Following are the quotes from the Qur'an that confirm this:

That they said (in boast), "We killed Christ Jesus the son of Mary, the Messenger of Allah";--but they killed him not, nor crucified him, but so it was made to appear to them, and those who differ therein are full of doubts, with no (certain) knowledge, but only conjecture to follow, for of a surety they killed him not. (4:157, Yusif Ali)

O People of the Book! Commit no excesses in your religion: Nor say of Allah aught but the truth. Christ Jesus the son of Mary was (no more than) a messenger of Allah, and His Word, which He bestowed on Mary, and a spirit proceeding from Him: so believe in Allah and His messengers. Say not "Trinity"" desist: it will be better for you: for Allah is one Allah: Glory be to Him: (far exalted is He) above having a son. To Him belong all things in the heavens and on earth. And enough is Allah as a Disposer of affairs. (4:171, Yusif Ali)

Christ the son of Mary was no more than a messenger; many were the messengers that passed away before him. His mother was a woman of truth. They had both to eat their (daily) food. See how Allah doth make His signs clear to them; yet see in what ways they are deluded away from the truth! (5:75, Yusif Ali)

Quran, 5:73 (Yusuf Ali), “They do blaspheme who say: Allah is one of three in a Trinity: for there is no god except One Allah. If they desist not from their word (of blasphemy), verily a grievous penalty will befall the blasphemers among them.”
