No. Muslims do not believe in the crucifixion and resurrection of Jesus. They oppose vehemently the doctrine of the trinity. The focus is on dos and don'ts whereas Jesus taught about love, sacrifice, and atonement. Their description about the character of God would be different. Then there is the killing thing for infidels. Not really close when you examine the details--other than monotheistic.
