Islam Only want Peoples to Pray Only One God Named as Allah Almighty..!
Muhammad {S.A.W} is last Prophet of Allah..!
And Quran is last and proper Holy Book after Torah,Zabour and Enj'eel..!
But U both said Christ(Essa{A.S.}) OR Danial(Danial{A.S}) is the Son of Allah..!

Isaiah 53
he was wounded for our transgressions, he was bruised for our iniquities: the chastisement of our peace was upon him; and with his stripes we are healed.
All we like sheep have gone astray; we have turned every one to his own way; and the LORD hath laid on him the iniquity of us all. He was oppressed, and he was afflicted, yet he opened not his mouth: he is brought as a lamb to the slaughter, and as a sheep before her shearers is dumb, so he openeth not his mouth

As Abraham was ready to give his son, so the God was ready to give His beloved Son for ours salvation. As Isaac was voluntarily ready without grumble give his life so Jesus did it for our salvation. here is the heart of the Gospel. all Judaic law and prophets speaks about it

also about God the Father giving His Son as sacrifice. for those who read Torah: the story about Abraham and Isaac and how God ask Abraham to give his son as sacrifice. God did it to test Abraham's faith. that was a image of sacrifice of Jesus Christ for the sin of all people.

You said it, God did to test Abraham's faith ..the question is , Did God allow Abraham to slay his son !!? No He sent a sheep from heaven and asked Abraham to slay it instead of his son ..God is just and his justice states that no one should die for the sins of others ..
