A second source of guidance for most Muslims is al-Hadith (Tradition), a vast body of transmitted stories of what the Prophet said or did or what was said or done in his presence and therefore approved by him It was Muhammad's contention that Christianity had departed from belief in God's message as revealed in their Scriptures. After Muhammad's death in AD 632, it was feared that the content of the revelations might be lost, as those who had originally memorized it died. It was therefore decided to collect all the revelations, from what ever source, and make a compilation (http://muslim-canada.org/islam_christianity.html).
Christianity and Islam are two of the most significant religions since their beginning. Islam means "submission" in Arabic, and a Muslim is one who submits to the will of God. Christians were called so because of Jesus' title Christos, which is Greek for Messiah (www.sharif.org.uk/paulianity). Both religions are very similar with only some of the beliefs and teachings being different. They also give separate messages to outsiders as to what their religions stand for. Islam has a set of rules (5 Pillars of Islam) set forth to reach enlightenment while Christians basically just sin, repent, and then are forgiven for their sins. Christianity is a much easier religion to belong to because it is a lot more lenient to what you can and cannot do as well as when and where you can do it. Islam is also more closed doors because the do not really send out missionaries looking for people to convert to Islam (http://muslim-canada.org.islam_christianity.html).
For Christianity, Jesus of Nazareth was the Messiah (the anointed one) v/s God's deliverer, whose coming the prophets had foretold. Jesus taught the good Word of the Lord, as was his duty as the Son of God. He is also said to have performed miracles such as curing leprosy and blindness as well walking on water.
