There are huge differences between the Quran and the Bible, and it's important to know them. As of 2021, there were ten Muslim-majority countries where apostasy from ISLAM was PUNISHABLE BY DEATH. Most punishment is extra-judicial/vigilante, and most executions are perpetrated by jihadist and "takfiri" insurgents (al-Qaeda, ISIL/ISIS/IS/Daesh, the GIA, and the Taliban).
The difference in the Quran and the Bible, is that Muslims believe that their Quran is only for Muslims. But God said Jesus died for the whole world, not just some; the Bible is God's love letter to all of mankind as a guide for life...a spiritual roadmap...a light to our path, and tells us exactly how to have eternal life in heaven. God loves everyone and He turns no one away because that would not be a loving God. Obviously not the god of the Quran, who only accepts certain people. They also say they love God, but they dishonor him by worshiping idols, which is one of God's first Commandments. "Thou shalt have no other gods before me!" Not idols, not statues, not anything.
One of the biggest differences I can see, and there are many, but this stands out because the Quran contains a provision that says 'he who has embraced ISLAM and then abandons it will receive punishment in hell after Judgment Day. Notice that they say that it is not from rejecting Christ as Savior, that matters, but abandoning their particular religion. Anyone in the world who rejects Islam and the Quran are going to hell, according to them. However, Jesus said he died for everyone in the whole world, so that they could all be saved! He doesn't play favorites.
Muslims believe the angel Gabriel is the Holy Spirit in Islam. Christians do not. Muslims don't believe in the trinity, which makes up the Holy Spirit, God the Father, and God the Son.
They also say they don't worship angels. How can the Holy Spirit be the angel, Gabriel, if they don't worship angels? What is his appointment/purpose in salvation? What makes Gabriel worthy to play a part in salvation? Angels cannot even forgive us of our sins. Why would God appoint Gabriel as Holy Spirit? All angels are just ministering spirits. That is the only job God ministered to them. Not to save, but only give protection at times, but we are not to worship them or pray to them. God's Word makes that crystal clear. Their abilities are limited.
They don't believe that Jesus is the Savior of the world. In the Quran, Jesus is described as the Messiah (al-Masīḥ), miraculously born of a virgin, performing miracles, accompanied by his disciples, rejected by the Jewish religious establishment, but not as crucified or dying on the cross (nor resurrected).
The difference in the Quran and the Bible, is that Muslims believe that their Quran is only for Muslims.
https://quran.com/38/87 The Qur'an states the total opposite where it is actually for everyone. Not Muslims only but even other creatures as well
Please try to double check the thingd you mention
Anyone in the world who rejects Islam and the Quran are going to hell, according to them. While Jesus said he died for everyone in the whole world, so that they could all be saved! He doesn't play favorites
When you mention this, it makes me curious. Are you implying that everyone is saved, no matter what they reject? Hell is meaningless because Jesus does not play favorites? Or can you go to hell for rejecting Jesus and not taking him as lord and savior?

No. Don't misquote me. The following quote came from Islam beliefs: Anyone in the world who rejects Islam and the Quran are going to hell, according to them. However, Jesus said He died for everyone in the whole world, so that they could all be saved. He excludes no one. Of course, they have to follow God's Plan of Salvation if they want to be saved. That's what God said.

You put words in my mouth. I never once said hell is meaningless because Jesus does not play favorites. My point was that anyone can be saved and God said anyone can be saved, meaning he doesn't play favorites. He loves everyone and wants everyone to be saved.
No. Don't misquote me. The following quote came from Islam beliefs: Anyone in the world who rejects Islam and the Quran are going to hell, according to them
Yes. This was my point
Everyone who rejects Jesus as lord and savior who died for their sins and then rejects the bible is going to hell, right?
@LadyGrace and I prefer not to deal with two tangent things, but I'll show courtesy if you really want me to address that image you shared. Those verses do not show this quote of yours:
The difference in the Quran and the Bible, is that Muslims believe that their Quran is only for Muslims
And if you read those, you can see some clear deception. I picked a random one and already saw it wasn't even a proper translation. Perhaps you can read over it again
@Iwantyourhotwife Kuran 3:85 means the same thing. No deception on my part, but it doesn't get clearer than that. Koran 8:12 is another that confirms that Muslims believe that their Quran is only for Muslims. Perhaps you're not willing to accept that but that's exactly what it says.
