I don't think that there will ever be agreement between Muslims and Christians on the identify of their God. Christians with the exception of a few minor sects believe that Jesus is the Son (capital S) of God and consequently either divine or actually even God. The fact that they would agree with you about the oneness of God is to some of them an indication that God does move in mysterious ways (not being facetious this time). The identity of Jesus is what makes the proposition that the God of Islam is the same one as the God of Christianity a false one. Muslims would never concede that they should bow their knees to Jesus - that is for God alone. Muslims would never believe that Jesus was crucified for the remission of sins for mankind and that the only way to God is through Jesus. I understand that they don't believe that Christ died by crucifixion and was later resurrected so that all or some die and are/will be raised with Christ. Please correct me about statements regarding Islamic beliefs if I am wrong. The respective links between Jesus and the Islamic and the Christian God makes it impossible for them to be the same God. At least one of them is wrong.

Muslims believe the same as the Gospel Barnabas states. Since this gospel and the Gospel of Thomas were not compiled/edited by the same authorities that persecuted Jesus, they should be seen as a more accurate account.
