→Notes: the claim that most Jews question that Jews and Muslims worship the same deity is false. Orthodox Jews are more likely to question if Christians worship the same deity as Jews + Muslims

Some claim that Christianity, Judaism, and [[Islam]] worship the same God in different ways, a claim that many adherents of those religions, especially Christianity and Judaism, would question. This claim is regarded by some as a way to convert Jews and Christians to Islam, since it supports the idea that [[Abrahamic religions|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> Christianity and Judaism do not have a place in their scriptures for the Islamic view of Allah or the claims made against both religions.

It is a tenet of the Jewish religion that all Jews descended from Abraham (indeed, in order to convert to Judaism one must complete an 'adoption' ritual for the house of Israel); as Jesus is regarded as Jewish, the growth of Christianity as an offshoot of the Jewish religion is clear. In a similar fashion, Muslims claim to be descended from Abraham by way of Ishmael. This claim is questioned, and the concept of what relevance it would have if it was true is also questioned.
