The Yahweh of the Torah is a radically different figure than the kind and gentle, "God the Father" of Christianity. Secondly Christianity provides an old polytheistic/non-polytheistic "Trinity" or three gods of three "persons" within one God that is nowhere in sight in Judaism. There is no Trinity in Judaism.
Christianity also offers this figure who is or at least was for time both Fully Human and Fully Divine. No other tradition offers anything close to that.
Allah of the Islam tradition is much more old school GREATER THAN Humans could ever comprehend. A being that encompasses all. A Being that is in no way all that interested in you. Allah is close to the Emersonian idea of the Oversoul or what Hindus reference as the Beyond-Beyond God. This is in direct opposition to the concept in Judeo-Christian tradition of a "persona God". Allah is not a personal God.
During its formative phases Yahweh appeared in the Pantheon more as a Demi-urge or lesser God as it were while the ALLAH figure was the greater of the greatest. Yahweh eventually splits off as the Yiddish Tribe claims a monotheistic interpretation.
Though Ahura Mazda of the Zoroasterians was really the first of those.
So really the answer is none of them.
HAPPY RESURRECTION from a Death that is but a sleep and awakening.
