You are of course correct about the New Testament covenant as expressed by Paul and in John. I shouldn't have taken it out of context.
But God already had a covenant with the Jewish people and I don't consider it unlikely that he also has covenants with other peoples, expressed in terms that would mean something to their cultures.
And I don't see any reason why the God of Islam wouldn't be the God of Abraham. They just don't believe, as Jews don't believe, that Jesus was the Messiah and that God must be reached through Jesus. Which means that they're not Christian, not that they don't believe in the God of Abraham.
