One God, Many Perspectives: A Comparative Study of Monotheism in Abrahamic Religions from an Islamic Viewpoint

The concept of God is central to the three major Abrahamic religions: Judaism, Christianity, and Islam, each of which upholds the belief in a single, supreme deity. However, the definition and interpretation of God vary significantly across these faiths. This study conducts a comparative theological analysis from an Islamic perspective of how these religions define and conceptualize God. Using scriptural analysis as the primary method, this research examines the attributes, nature, and theological significance of “God” as presented in the sacred scriptures. The study identifies common themes such as the oneness of God, divine attributes, worship practices, and interfaith dialogue. By exploring these variations and similarities from an Islamic viewpoint, this paper argues that a well-informed understanding of different religious perspectives on God can foster interfaith dialogue and communal harmony in society. The findings contribute to comparative theology by providing a framework for engaging with diverse theological traditions while respecting the unique beliefs of different religious practices.
