I'm not quite sure why you posted this. Though it's interesting to see the Muslim perspective.
Also, Christianity is not monotheistic. It has three gods. But Judaism along with Islam is strictly monotheistic.
And if you dismiss a religion like Hinduism which has lesser gods who have more specialized roles, then you also have Catholicism which has Saints, who might be comparable to the lesser gods of a religion like Hinduism.
And there is a higher form of Hinduism which is pantheistic and worships one universal god, Brahma.
Time itself is made up of 3 components: Past, present, and future. Each are distinct, and yet, belong to the one and the same thing.
All religions - both monotheistic & polytheistic alike - venerate saints (though they have different names in their own religions for such holy people).
And it is BRAHMAN, - not Brahma - that the highest Hindus worship. Brahma actually receives very little, to almost NO WORSHIP in Hinduism. Indeed, he receives far more devotion in Buddhism, than he does in Hinduism. This, in spite of the fact that Buddhists do not believe in a Supreme Creator.
I'm Hindu. And I don't worship anything. Brahma is the creator god. Brahman is a concept. But Brahma is my higher power, not Brahman.
And the Trinity is found nowhere in the Bible. Christ wasn't such an egotist that he prayed to himself. Obviously God the Father and Christ are two separate figures. The Son is his own Father? 
That sounds horribly incestuous.
That sounds horribly incestuous. But if you want to believe in the Trinity, you're still not a monotheist like Muslims and Jews. You have divided the godhead in three. That's not strictly monotheistic even if you believe they are all avatars of the same tripartite god.
Just be honest with what you believe. "Monotheism" is just a word. Trinitarian Christianity does not worship one indivisible god. It worships three different aspects of the same god.
