It's claimed that Christianity, Islam, and Judaism worship the same God in different ways. This claim is regarded by some as a way to convert Jews and Christians to Islam, since it supports the idea that Abrahamic religion has "grown" from Judaism to Christianity to Islam.<ref>http://www.biblebelievers.org.au/moongod.htm</ref> However, many are skeptical of this idea.<ref>http://www.letusreason.org/Islam6.htm</ref>

Common powers attributed to God include [[omnipotence]](the ability to do anything), [[omniscience]](the ability to know anything) although even that level of detail is not common throughout all monotheists. Many believers in God also believe that he punishes the wicked and rewards the righteous in some afterlife and variants of this theme are found in all the Abrahamic faiths.
