i don't know if they worship the same god .judeisam i think was around thousands of years befor islam (the isrealites).islam was started in the middle east, i think in iran or iraq area around 550 ad by a man named mohamad. islam and mohammad are no longer debatable. i'm not jewish or muslem.
they have many differences, Islam has a lot pagan customs and beliefs still . in beginning Muslims were praying toward Jerusalem . Jewish people did not like that somebody else who is not Jewish is prophet of the same religion since they claim that they are chosen one..
Difference is in Freedom and relationship toward God .. even the live under same law they have different level of faith.. Jewish faith is far more stronger then muslim faith . Difference is the same like Difference between Isak and Ishmael
They do not worship the same God
The God of the the children of Israel, Yahweh, is the one true God, later revealed as Jesus (Jews do not believe Jesus to be a revelation of Yahweh).
The God of Islam however is the vain imagination of a man.
Different ancestry (Muslim/Ismail) (Jew/Isaac), therefore different beliefs. Neither accept Jesus as the Jewish Messiah as promised in the Old Testament. Muslims have added Mohamed. Some want a religion that identifies with their heritage therefore the Muslims added their Mohamed and distort Old Testament scripture and invent their own bible, the Quran. Satan doesn't care how religious you are, he just wants to distort the truth just enough to keep you under his control. He does this by distorting the truth about Jesus.
The god of Islam is most certainly not the same as the God of Jews and Christians. While the Jewish and Christian God is Father and King, Allah is the unknowable dictator.
here is a comparison of Christianity, Islam and Judaism that might help
