Hello fisher nice to hear from you,
Because you are new you are probably not aware yet that we have a thread in the Discussion of Belief sectron in which some Christian members have presented some information about the way they veiw the trinity. I believe it is titled "What we actually believe." You might like to continue in that thread.
The question this particular topic addresses is Can one be Christian and Muslim at the same time? Clearly, they cannot. The view of the trinity it just one aspect of this.
Actually the Quran address the topic of trinity as well:
4:171 O People of the Book! Commit no excesses in your religion: Nor say of Allah aught but the truth. Christ Jesus the son of Mary was (no more than) an apostle of Allah, and His Word, which He bestowed on Mary, and a spirit proceeding from Him: so believe in Allah and His apostles. Say not "trinity" : desist: it will be better for you: for Allah is one Allah. Glory be to Him: (far exalted is He) above having a son. To Him belong all things in the heavens and on earth. And enough is Allah as a Disposer of affairs
5:73 They do blaspheme who say: Allah is one of three in a trinity: for there is no god except One Allah. If they desist not from their word (of blasphemy), verily a grievous penalty will befall the blasphemers among them.
Thanks and take care :)
