Islam is a works based religion invented by a man that was unhappy with the idol worship going on around him. Man has always looked for a way to reach God under his own power. Christianity is faith based. Where we believe in the power of Christs death, burial, and Resurrection to reach God.

Christians believe that jesus is the son of God while muslims believe that he was a only phrophet\n\nMuslims believe that Mohamed was the greatest and prophet and place his importance above Jesus\n\nMost of the basic priciples in all religions are the same

(1) The most basic belief that differs is Jesus is the Son of God.\nMuslims believe that Jesus (Peace be Upon Him) is a messenger of God.\n(2) There is no concept of trinity in Islam. There is only one God.\n\nThe basic thing is "Both religion come from the same source, brought by two different prophets elected by the same God, to deliver the same message in different time periods. Both promise peace and enlightenment."\n\nAnd just so u know, Islam is not Anti-Women, Women have same rights as Men . And there is NO CRAP in Islam.\n\nhttp://www.irf.net/irf/videogallery/middle/videogallery.htm

jesus did not teach christianity. jesus taught islam. rather paul's teachings are the foundation of the christian doctrine. paul was a great persecuter of the "christians" and then began to teach "christianity" which was his way of truly doing away with them. he would never kill them all so instead he took their religion from them by altering it. it's good to see you read the bible. the bible adamently supports and teaches islam. it is contradictory to christain thought.

Differences between the two religions began the day Abraham separated Ishmael and Hagar his mother from Isaac and Sarah, the progenitors of these faiths.  Both religions believe in the same monotheistic God, but views on how to relate and otherwise commune with Him differ drastically.  Christianity teaches that Jesus is the only way to God, Islam teaches that Jesus was not God Incarnate, but rather a prophet of Allah, who at the end of time will come back to proclaim Islam the true religion.

Islam (the muslim faith) is a hot topic for discussion right now. \n\nAs a western Christian I find some of the traditions and beliefs of muslims to be incompatable with my own, yet that has not stopped me from getting to know some wonderful muslims that have taught me much about unconditional friendship. \n\nI've also discovered that the Islam that is practiced by certain feared groups appears to be a little different from that practiced by the muslims that I have known. But then Christianity seems to be interpreted and practiced in many different forms too - otherwise there wouldn't be so many different types of Christian churches. Go figure. Religion is certainly interesting. :)

I took a class on world religions. A Muslim believes in Allah (God). He is not a very personal God. He is a God of wrath, not love like the Christian God. They believe in "converting or killing" non-muslims. Christians believe in loving non-Christians and trying to show them the truth that they may believe.

Muslims actually follow the 10 commandments better than Christians... here is an excerpt from the 10 commandments\nThen God spoke all these words: 2I am the Lord your God, who brought you out of the land of Egypt, out of the house of slavery; 3you shall have no other gods before me. 4You shall not make for yourself an image, whether in the form of anything that is in heaven above, or that is on the earth beneath, or that is in the water under the earth. 5You shall not bow down to them or worship them; for I the Lord your God am a jealous God, punishing children for the iniquity of parents, to the third and the fourth generation of those who reject me, \n\nsee the part #4 about not having any graven images?.. why do christians ignore this command? are they better?

I don't know, but the former Attorney General of the United States, John Ashcroft, said something like "Islam is a religion in which God requires you to send your son to die for him.  Christianity is a faith in which God sends his son to die for you."  Personally I think that was an insulting and offensive to the Muslim world.  Unfortunately I have yet to hear a better distinction drawn.

The whole basis of Christianity is that You have sinned, even the smallest sin such as a lie, or a thought of lust, and because you have sinned, you will live in complete separation of God.  But because God sent his son, Jesus, who was perfect and didn't need to die, down to earth and die for all the sins of humanity, you can live eternally with God in heaven.  Jesus rose again and defeated hell for the us.  That is the basics of Christianity, knowing this and accepting Jesus as your savior, and living your life fully for the Glory of God.

this may not be EXACTLY  the difference in the rituals, but the diffenence in their belief  which I think probably is more important.\n\nhttp://www.dianedew.com/islam.htm

Basic Humanist principles, which pre-date religion. Half the Ten Commandments are basic common sense - not killing each other, not stealing - they are the rules that a society will self-determine.\nPersonally I believe that there is just *morality* and that pre-fix is redundant. For the most part, people are moral, with or without God.

As I understand it, there is a fundamental difference in world-view.\n\nIn the Christian world-view we learn that EVERYTHING should be questioned, tested, and that truth and error can be distinguished from each other (i.e. that the Truth is knowable, and carefull study will reveal it).\n\nIn the Muslim world-view, it is taught that truth has been revealed to Muhammad as the "seal of the prophets", and that to question anything he said or did (or in some cases, what is reported that he said or did), is to committ blasphemy against God.\n\nThe Christian world-view says that God invites us to question both Him and His messengers to see if they are correct.\n\nThe Muslim world-view says that God is never to be questioned, and His messengers are to be accepted without question as well.

I like this verse better my friend:\n\nJoh 11:26  and everyone who lives and believes in me shall never die. Do you believe this?" \n\nA Christian is someone who both lives and believes in Jesus. Repent is close but no cigar. We must make Jesus the Lord and Master of our life.\n\nGlad to help :)

The Koran considers the Old Testament, and some of the New to be holy texts. It considers itself a religion that builds off of Judaism into something new. Jesus and Muhammad were not the same person. There are a few centuries between the establishment of Christianity and Islam.\n\nSo while both are Holy Texts based on the Abrahamic tradition, they aren't mirror images of each other.

Islam and Christianity both have a history of using religion to justify violence, ethnic cleansing, and war.  I would find it hard to claim one is more bloody than the other.\n\nOf course, Islamic extremists would justify the perception that jihad - "holy war" makes Islam the religion with the most "soldiers of god" today.\n\nBut looking back in history, Christianity was used to justify the Crusades, the Spanish Inquisition, and colonization and ethnic cleansing of Native Americans.\n\nBoth religions are just as bloody.  And I would probably say that Christianity has been used to justify the deaths of more people than Islam.  Terrorists pluck off a few at a time, maybe a thousand in a big attack.  Wars fought by Christians killed many, many more.
