In doctrine alone, exactly the same. Save for some difference in core belief (important prophets, holy trinity or one God, etc etc) Christianity and Islam are basically the same religion. They promote the same values and Basic messages. Both promote misogynistic patriarchy and are obsessed with women and sex (or suppression of it), both have historically condones slavery and war on "heretics", both promote the idea of spreading the word of the religion to non-believers. Medieval Europe was frighteningly similar to the modern Middle East, they are the same culture.
The only reason Christianity is in soup kitchens instead of inquisition courts today is because secularism has stripped away its power. This hasn't happened with Islam.

"Ironically like the nativist far-Right, which despises multiculturalism, but benefits from its ideas of difference to scapegoat the other and to promote its own white identity politics; these postmodernists, leftists, feminists and liberals also use multiculturalism, to side with the oppressor, by demanding respect and tolerance for oppression characterised as 'difference', no matter how intolerable." - Maryam Namazie
