Muslims believe that there is only One God. The Arabic word for God is Allah. God has no wife, no son or daughter, no partner at all in His divinity. God has no Image and no idols. He is Eternal, having no beginning or end. you cannot carve a statue of God.
The Hindu scriptures also preached 'ONE GOD' Oneness of God preached in the Hindu Holy Scriptures Vedas and Upanishads. A few examples from these scriptures reveal that they also preach Oneness of God, which is exactly the same truth which was conveyed by God through His final messenger Muhammad (There is no god, but God).
* "There is only one God, worship Him" (Rig Veda, Vol. 6, Hymn 45 vs 16 ) * "Do not worship any one beside Him" (Rig Veda Bk. 8, Hymn 1, Vs 1) * "God is only one, - not a second"- (Chandogya Upanishad Ch.6, Section 2,verse 1). * "na tasya pratima asti - "There is no image of Him." [Yajurveda 32:3]

Hindus beleive not only in ONE God but beleive that there is ONLY God every where. other idols etc are only to fix our concentration on God if that would help. Idol worship is neither necessary nor it is rediculed if it does not harm any one.
