Islam shares more similarities with Judaism than it does with Christianity. The core beliefs that bind each of these two religions are very similar in belief and practice. The first and main similarity would be the belief in one God, although they each refer to Him with different names, He is still the one God of Abraham. Each religion recognizes many of the same prophets including the first prophet named Adam. Both religions recognized the Jews as God’s chosen people and gave the land of Israel to the Jews. Islam and Judaism have many similarities in the way they pray, they each are commanded to make pilgrimages, women are required to cover their hair, dress modestly, the idea of fasting, and how and when they should purify themselves with water. Each has similar beliefs in food, marriage, death, and a child’s coming of age. Many of these beliefs and practices have subtle differences but are close enough to make these two religions the most
