Abstract

Islam and Christianity, both traditions of Abraham, share centuries of mutual influence as well as an assortment of core values. This research involves an in-depth comparison between the two distinct global faiths within consideration, highlighting both their similarities and differences. The monotheistic faith or believing in a single Lord, is a key aspect that the two faiths have in agreement. This study discusses the shared admiration that Jews and Christians have towards messengers who include Abram and Christ. It investigates their significance to faiths, particularly Jews as well as Catholics. The primary contrasts are then analysed, with the initial one having Jesus' reverence in Catholicism. Conversely, he is just a messenger of Allah, like he belongs to Islam.The nature of Lord, the many explanations of the holy Scriptures, including the types of devotion are all addressed as well. By identifying such similarities and differences, our piece is targeted to ensuring that cultural awareness between Islam and Christianity within modern day society is increased, followed by inter-religious discussion as well as tolerance amongst various religions.
