Similarities and differences between Yahweh/Elohim and Allah in the Qur’an and Torah. Same god?

Question

I’m interested in a serious comparative discussion about how Yahweh (YHWH/Elohim) in Judaism and Christianity compares to Allah in the Qur’an. The Quran says they are the same god and continuation.
What similarities do they share regarding:
Absolute monotheism and divine unity.
Attributes (merciful, just, jealous, loving, wrathful, all-knowing, all-powerful, eternal, creator, sustainer, etc.).
Throne
Their actions in history (flood, destruction of nations, covenants, guidance through prophets).
Relationship with humanity and expectations of obedience.
How God speaks, reveals scripture, and interacts with prophets.
Concepts of law, morality, reward and punishment.
Divine transcendence vs. immanence.
