Not to get into a religious discussion, but when you compare what's written in the torah and bible about YHWH to what's written in the Koran about Allah, they're almost exact opposites (genocides aside that is)...

Islam holds Abraham, Moses and even Jesus to be prophets of god. As such Allah, Yahweh and God the Father are all the same god, ie Creator of the Universe. Where the three faiths differ is in regard to the natures and actions of later prophets and messiahs, as well as styles of worship and interpretation of will.
All of this theological discourse is, however, pretty left-field of the thread topic.
