I don't understand this viewpoint at all. Why must we assume that the god worshipped by Islam must be a bona fide Vedic deity? Especially when that "god" teaches his followers to do some horrendous things, like hating Jews/idol-worshippers and attacking them wherever they are found, etc.
Our Puranas speak often about the proliferatio of false religions, especially in Kali Yuga. The more I read about the heresies they describe, the more I am inclined to acknowledge how correct they are when I read about "religions" like Islam and Xtianity.
