“After Hashem, your God, shall you walk and Him shall you fear, His commandments shall you observe, and to His voice shall you hearken, Him shall you serve, and to Him shall you cleave.” (Deut. 13:5)
“But not new commandments devised by a prophet” (Commentary by rabbinic sage Sforno on Deut. 13:5)
Jews should not believe that Muslims pray to the same god that Jews pray to.
“Allah” is the false god of Islam and not Hashem, the God whom Jews serve.
“Allah” is not the God that the Jews worship. The Torah considers “Allah” as meenoot” (IE intellectual idolatry) according to a senior Hareidi rabbi I consulted.
Belief in the Islamic deity “allah” is belief in a deity that has radically different attributes than Hashem, the God of the Bible.
Islam teaches that “allah” has attributes such as hearing, seeing, and speech, and “allah” claims that the Jews altered and distorted the Torah.
According to Muslims, “allah” rejects the Jewish Torah as having been forged by the Jews, and “allah” calls for the slaughter of Jews. How can “allah” possibly be the God of the Jews?
In fact Islam, as an invented religion, is considered avodah zarah by many Torah authorities.
“Avodah zarah“, translated as FOREIGN worship, is not limited to just worshiping an idol. Avodah zarah includes inventing a new religion.
Non-Jews are not allowed to invent a new religion, especially a new religion that attacks the Torah as false, which Islam certainly does.
The Rambam and many Jews might have been killed if he had spoken honestly about Islam, so he had to remain neutral.
Because Christians accept at least some of the principles of the Jewish Bible, they are actually closer to Judaism than Islam.
