I'm writing about my personal opinion.

Hinduism is far too old a religion,
For any religion one must have noticed that slowly and slowly ppl leave the burdens of right and wrong.

From my point of view there is nothing dissimilar in-between both.
( just Islam doesn't allow murti puja) is the basic difference.
So ppl following Islam doesn't even know how their prophet looked.

Y

Islam is a newer religion, almost the recent amongst others( Hinduism, Christianity, Zodaism)

What Muslims believe is that the ppl following earlier religions started worshiping God's messengers and not actually the Almighty.

Ex: Jesus christ, the messenger of God, ( or say the son of God) is being worshiped.

The vedas says,
God is omnipotent, omnipresent, ....... (nirakar, sarvshaktiman, dayalu, ajanma, anant, .........)
So as wat the quran says..

But since Islam is the newest, ppl following Islam are more strict to their lessons..

I don't find differences in between both,,
After sometime, all will be the same..
Sorry for the grammatical errors .

Worship of any form of statues, murtis, pictures is sin in islam and there is no pardon for that. It is the highest form of sin in Islam, Allah tells he can forgive everything except shirk. So when your non-muslim husband/wife is doing shirk in front of Ram or Krishna, it is obligation of muslim spouse to stop him/her from doing this, else you will be part of shirk, now if you stop them from doing puja to their pictures of god,statues, then there will no equality.

Hurting sentiment of any community feelings are condemnable. Immediately arrest them and maximum punishment should give to them,
