What is the difference between Islam and Judaism, given that the Torah is also one of Islam's holy books?

+1
−2

I have little bit knowledge of Abrahamic Religion (Christianity, Islam). When I had seen the community first some questions came to my mind.

I know that Hazrat Musa (a:) (prophet of Muslim) is God of Jews (I had read that in a book. That's why I am not sure of the knowledge (wrong information)). And, Hazrat Isha (a:) (prophet of Muslim) also known as Jesus is God of Christianity (but, some believes Allah is their God and some believes Jesus is), I don't want to criticize about the topic. As Monica mentioned Genesis as Holy Book of Jews in this post, but, I had read somewhere that Genesis is Holy Book of Christianity.

And, I know that Torah is main holy book of Jews. But, Muslim has 4 main holy books;

  1. Torah (Actually, I usually called it Taorat or, Taorah)
  2. Jabur (I am not sure if it is called something else in English)
  3. Ingil (I am not sure if it is called something else in English)
  4. Quran (It is the main one which Muslim follows)

As Torah is holy book of Muslim than, how it can be holy book of Jews. What's the difference between Muslim and, Jews than? I can't understand the main concept of Judaism. What am I missing?

Hi Istiak. I proposed an edit in an attempt to better summarize your question in a title. I hope it is an improvement; certainly feel free to edit further!

First of all, Judaism came first, so if something doesn't make sense, it is on the Muslims part.

"Hazrat Musa (a:) (prophet of Muslim) is God of Jews" not sure what you're saying. Jews don't believe any prophet is G-d.

robev‭ Yes! The information was wrong. After researching little bit, I found that Musa was also a prophet in Judaism.
