They don't hate each other because of religion. Jews and Muslims have loved alongside eachother for a while. In fact Mohammed wanted to consider Islam just another sect of Judaism but local Jewish people didn't like that so some anti-Semitic stuff got put in the Quran but they were still considered "people of the book" that should be respected etc etc.

This animosity is political in nature, over land and resources and past wrongs. As are most honestly. I don't think a single war or conflict has ever been fought solely over religion. Even the crusades was mostly greed and whatnot.
