Are Allah & God the same?

[Indeependent]

As much as Muslims desperately seek legitimacy as latecomers by latching onto God of the Bible and insisting God of the Bible and Allah of the Koran are the same, they are absolutely different.

Ironically Jews could make almost the exact same case regarding the God of the Jews and the God of the Christians.

The Sura 1 description of Allah is identical to the Jewish concept of the Most Diviney High.

I'm not seeing how that would come down on either side of the discussion?

Jews and Muslims share the Biblical aspect of a limitless, loving God.
"St." Paul followed in the footsteps of Aristotle by inferring that if there were indeed a Creator than that Creator walked away and left a janitor behind to handle the details.
Indeed, a God who created a place called Heaven too small to welcome all mankind and then created a larger place called Hell?
Can we be any more childish?

Allah originated as a pre-Islamic god.

That's a new one on me. Where did that come from?

Don't all religions have some sort of post-death judgement? If they didn't there would be no reason for followers to follow.

Allah commands Muslims in the Koran to go to war with Christians and Jews and to subjugate them. Allah is not God of Jews and Christians

Allah in the Koran wants Jews and Christians destroyed. Allah is not God of Jews and Christians

Allah in the Koran wants Jews and Christians destroyed. Allah is not God of Jews and Christians

The Koran considers Jews and Christians to be people of the book and has a reverence for them. They are granted a special place in the Muslim world. Like the Bible, the Koran has many passages that can be contradictory when taken out of context.

God in the New Testament condemns Jews as enemies of God. He is not the God of the Jews.

The Gospel of John has long provided anti-Semites with grist for their mill.[28] There are 31 instances where the gospel uses the word Ἰουδαῖοι, the Jews in a hostile sense,[29] among the 63 uses [30] of the word in this gospel,[31] and all Jewish groups are lumped together, with no distinctions made between them. The Sadducees, prominent elsewhere, disappear.[32] The enemies of Jesus are described collectively as "the Jews", in contradistinction to the other evangelists, who do not generally [33] ascribe to "the Jews" en masse calls for the death of Jesus. In the other 3 texts, the plot to put him to death is always presented as coming from a small group of priests and rulers, the Sadducees.[31][34] John's gospel is thus the primary source of the image of "the Jews" acting collectively as the enemy of Jesus, which later became fixed in Christian minds.[35]

Koran “reveres” Christians and Jews who are “the worst of creatures” and authorizes Muslims to go to war against them, subjugate them and humiliate them. LOL

Jesus was a devout Jew. God the Father, thus, is a Jewish God in Christianity

Non-believers are condemned to hell, just like in Christianity, but I don't think Godly Christians or Jews are included. They are allowed to live with Muslims once they pay a tax.

The religion of Jesus was transformed by Paul and his followers into the religion about Jesus. The Christian God is almost nothing like the God of the Jews.

Islam condemns Christians to hell for shirk, the unforgivable sin of associating Jesus with “Allah” as his son. Islam just hates Jews for not being Muslim and for allegedly tampering with the Torah which, of course, is nonsense

Every religion has to protect itself from the 'contamination' of other beliefs. Jews to this day frown on intermarriage. Christians put Jews into ghettos in many places.
