Although they share a common origin\u2014all three are monotheistic (believing in one God), recognize Abraham as their spiritual forefather, and place great emphasis on the sacred scriptures\u2014there are fundamental differences in their theological structures, the figure of the Savior, and the practice of their faith.<\/p>\n<p data-path-to-node=\"1\">Here are the key differences, organized according to the most significant theological points of divergence:<\/p>\n<h2 data-path-to-node=\"3\">1. The Concept of God and the Nature of Monotheism<\/h2>\n<p data-path-to-node=\"4\">Although all three religions worship a single God, they interpret monotheism itself in different ways.<\/p>\n<ul data-path-to-node=\"5\">\n<li>\n<p data-path-to-node=\"5,0,0\"><b data-path-to-node=\"5,0,0\" data-index-in-node=\"0\">Judaism:<\/b> Strict monotheism.

God is one, but exists in three persons: the Father, the Son (Jesus Christ), and the Holy Spirit. (According to Jewish and Islamic theology, this is incompatible with pure monotheism.).<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<li>\n<p data-path-to-node=\"5,2,0\"><b data-path-to-node=\"5,2,0\" data-index-in-node=\"0\">Islam:<\/b> Radical, absolute monotheism (<i data-path-to-node=\"5,2,0\" data-index-in-node=\"41\">Tawhid<\/i>). Allah is one and indivisible; He neither begets nor is begotten. Islam categorically rejects the doctrine of the Trinity, considering it to be polytheism (<i data-path-to-node=\"5,2,0\" data-index-in-node=\"181\">sirk<\/i>) considers it to be.<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h2 data-path-to-node=\"7\">2.

Instead of salvation, the emphasis is on earthly life and the divine commandments (<b data-path-to-node=\"19,0,0\" data-index-in-node=\"193\">mitzvot<\/b>) and in leading a righteous life.
