Do you think you worship the same God as is worshipped and adored by the Jews ?

Do the Jews believe that Christ is the Son of God? Do the Jews believe that Jesus came and died a substitutionary death to save us from our sins?

They do not worship God in his totality; they do not believe in God the Son. So, in that case, they do not worship the same God in that they do not believe in the Trinity. But they worship the one true living God, be it imperfectly.

Do Jews worship Jehovah, or Allah?

Mohammedans worship Satan. They do NOT worship Jehovah. They do not worship the Judeo-Christian God.... so the twisting and turning to try to make it seem that the CCC is in some way legitimate doesn't work. Muslims are not brethren. They are lost, just as we all were before God saved us. But, they worship Allah -- not Jehovah/Yahweh. They don't. No amount of spinning will make it so.

So... once again: do Catholics worship the same "God" as Muslims do as stated clearly and without equivocation in CCC 841? Simple question.

Ok, you voted that the Jews do not worship and adore the same God as you profess to worship and adore.

Jews do not pronounce the name of God as you do, being partial to the Hebrew and substituting Adonai for the Tetragrammaton whose historically correct pronunciation was forgotten. The Arabic word Allah is similar to the Hebrew El/Elohim construct, meaning literally "The God" so a congruent comparison on your part would be El/Elohim and Allah, which are words for God used in constructs (eg., God of Abraham, God Almighty, etc.).
