There are quite a few evident similarities between Islam and Mormonism, both have Jesus in their holy books (Quran, Book of Mormon) albeit a significantly different Jesus than "mainstream" Christianity, both religions deny the idea of a trinity God, with Jesus and God being separate rather than one entity. Of course there is the new or "final" prophet who founded their religions Muhamad and Joseph Smith (who btw was referred to by some at the time as the American Muhamad).
Mormonism however at the time of its birth and by some today is seen as a heretical branch of Christianity, Islam however as a wholly separate religion. If Islam from the get go was seen likewise as being a heretical Christian sect what impacts would that had historically?
