Buddhism? I afraid that I can not help you with this. I have never read any buddism sutras. If you can speak Chinese, the abbots and monks in the temples in China will enlighten you.

What I learnt from net.
About Buddhism - the teachings of Buddha
The founder of Buddhism in this world was Buddha Shakyamuni who lived and gave teachings in India two and a half thousand years ago. Since then millions of people around world have solved their human problems and attained enlightenment.

Buddha's teachings are spiritual technologies that identify the actual, root cause of human suffering and problems and eliminates them.

Buddha taught methods for gradually overcoming our negative minds such as anger, jealousy and ignorance, and developing our positive minds such as love, compassion and wisdom. Through this we can come to experience lasting peace and happiness.

These methods can work for anyone. We will possess a profound, uncommon understanding of how to help others overcome their difficulties and find permanent freedom.

Meditation is at the heart of the Buddhist way of life. Meditation is the most powerful type of mental action we can engage in. We first learn to identify our different negative mental states known as ‘delusions’, and learn how to develop peaceful and positive mental states or ‘virtuous minds’. This can be accomplished both in and out of meditation.

If we follow a spiritual path that gradually allows us to attain freedom from all delusions such as anger, attachment, and ignorance, then we will see from our own experience how the mind has created all of the experiences we have and the feelings they produce inside.

A great work on internet about "Buddhism & Islam"
Buddhism and Islam are two major religions of the world today, which is based on the teachings of Lord Buddha (Northern India) and Prophet Mohammed (Arabia), Buddhism and Islam deals with a new way of life, which gives a being freedom from confusion and disillusionment.

Both the religions require practice and faith in self. Both of them have different methods of worship, but on the whole talks about similar facts.
Similarities Between Buddhism And Islam
Eternal Life
Buddhism : The eternal life depends upon the karma or the deeds of the present life.
Islam : The eternal life depends on the works of the present life and is only applicable for those who follow the Islamic path whole heartedly.
The Concept Of Universe
Buddhism : The universe is separate from God and has been created by Him.
Islam : Islam is also creationist. The universe is a creation of God and so, separate from Him.
Humanity
Buddhism : Buddhism believes in humanity and love for all beings.
Islam : Similarly, the most important aspect in Islam is humanity.
Idol - Worship
Buddhism : The Buddhist doctrine exhorts the Buddhists to follow the essence of Dhamma and condemn idol-worship.
Islam : Likewise, Islam also imposes a taboo on idol-worship.
Equality
Buddhism : Buddhism opposes the evils of caste and creed and asserts the equality of all beings.
Islam :Islam also stresses on the equality of individuals, thereby, abhorring caste and creed.
Differences Between Buddhism And Islam
God
Buddhism : The earlier Buddhist doctrine does not mention any God, although the concept of Godly figures was introduced later.
Islam : The Muslims believe in one God, known as 'Allah'.
Salvation
Buddhism : According to the Buddhist doctrine, the works done by a person decides upon his salvation, and therefore, the person cannot blame others for it.
Islam : Islam does not believe in salvation, even though it focuses on the life after death. According to the principles of Islam, the aim of an individual's life is to attain an afterlife within one of the heavens as described in the holy Quran and to avoid one of the numerous hells.
The Concept of World
Buddhism : Buddhism neither stresses on the aspects of the natural world, nor gives an emphasis on the role of God in goods and evils.
Islam : Islam stresses on the aspects of natural world and considers Allah to be the creator of the universe and the source of all goods and evils.
