Which belief closer to Jews (Islam or Christianity)

[Godobeyer]

Hello all

I hesitate to post this thread in Judiasm DIR , because i think it's about discuss on varie beliefs .

I have this curious question , based on my opinion
about that Judiasm is most religion close Islam more than Christianity (for Jews/Muslim view)

and Most religion close to Christains is Islam (inspite they used Torah as OT) because we Muslims believe in Jesus (pbuh) as Messiah, and Jews not.

this is my honest question to Jews : do you think that Islam is closer to your belief than Christianity ?

please consider this no offend, just an honest question , i hope it's faced by honest answsers , based on belief

I'd have to say that Islam, overall, is probably closest to Judaism.

There isn't a whole lot "most" of us agree on.

what exactly are you referring to: the practices? the tenets of faith? the views on things? the underlying cosmology or vision of the godhead?

the important thing is God view of course .

belief in God, then view on things of faith (forbiden/allowed) for exemple .

@Topic: Islam

I'll go on record: Islam's concept of G-d is closer to Judaism's beliefs than is Christianity's concept of god.

Well, first thing came to my mind is Scriptures. A Jew has to deny validity of their current scriptures so I voted for Christianity. But I also agree that the way God is viewed and generally application of rules to real life bear a great resemblance to Islam.

I know this is a DIR so I won't comment, but I was just reading this today and it might be of interest to some people. If not, never mind.

(it is academic history, rather than a religious text though)

This has gotta be the stupidest thing I've read today. If you ever read our current scripture (which is the same as our ancient scripture), you'd see that your idol ain't in there.

Well, what I meant was if a Jew was to convert to Islam, this Jew would have to deny the validity of his current scriptures in order to embrace Islam. Because Quran claims that Torah and New Testament(Injil) is corrupted. That's why, Quran was revealed to Mohammad.

It would be even more difficult for us to embrace Christianity.
Either way we would have to "deny the validity" of our Scripture.

for my opinion ,Torah and Quran share many teaching and stories of prophets .

the Conversation to other religion had nothing to do with "closer religion" , OP .

Hi Godobeyer

I have a question about your question. Given that Jews are such a small group, why are you interested in what Jews think?
