Saudi Arabia Counters Muslim Extremism

[Geoffrey S]

I don't think I've made it clear enough. Allah is the same god that Jews worship, I can't say it's the same god that Christians worship because I don't know whether Christians consider Jesus is god himself or the son of god. The Quran still holds Moses, Jesus, Abraham, etc. in high regard, we consider them the ones who paved the way, which basically means that the Bible and Torah are the origins of the Quran.

I don't think I made myself clear enough. I thought that there were two foundations defining Muslims:
1. There is no God but God.
2. Mohammed is the (or a?) Prophet of God.
The point first non-Muslims can adhere to, though indeed there has been the matter of the perceived idolatry of Christ. But certainly earlier prophets are held in high esteem. The second point, however, is something no Christian or Jew can do, and defines Islam as something separate.
