contradictory teachings of the same being

one of the reasons the author of the text dismissed the possibility of Yahweh and Allah being one and the same is their contradictory teaching regarding murder, you stated "The same being did not tell humanity to abide by one principle and then abrogate it and do the opposite", but on the bible Yahweh himself did this. After declaring "thou shall not kill" in exodus, in leviticus he says you should put to death homosexuals, "witches and wizards", and men who has sex with a women during her period. So either we have here the same being giving contradictory teachings, or by the author's logic, two separate Yahwehs within the old testament.
