    Islam maintains that Christianity is a corrupted version of the original teachings of prophet Jesus, son of Mary. God raised many prophets among the Children of Israel with the same message there is only God. The idea of an incarnate God descending from the heavens and sacrificing himself to redeem humanity is something that’s completely antithetical to the teachings of Abraham, and even Jews will concede to this.

    If you look into the early history of Christianity, you’ll see that the so-called “Pharisee” Paul who came decades after Jesus mutated the original teachings of the Gospel during the Council of Nicean and started incorporating ideas from the pagan cults of the Greeks/Romans in an attempt to make it more attractive to locals. 

    However, the Quran commands Muslims to respect the “People of the Book”, which includes Jews and Christians. 

    “Do not argue with the People of the Book unless gracefully, except with those of them who act wrongfully. And say, “We believe in what has been revealed to us and what was revealed to you. Our God and your God is ˹only˺ One. And to Him we ˹fully˺ submit.”

    [Quran 29:46]

    The Christians world are also waiting for the return of Jesus Christ, the same as of Muslims do , but the Jews deny Jesus Christ as a whole. This is my view.
