Answer 1

Gabriel is evil according to the Bhavishya Purana, which means Allah doesn't exist, is a metaphor, or a powerless figurehead for the angels in the Quran (which actually fits with the Quran surprisingly well, especially the last two).

Gabriel is called Pisacha (possibly actually Paiśācha in Sanskrit but the translators are simplifying which often happens with the taddhita affix "a"). You can tell it means him, because Muhammad is said to be involved in the work of Pisacha/Paiśācha singular, which makes no sense as something to say if it refers to Muhammad/Muhammed/Mohammed or followers of Islam, but makes a lot of sense for Gabriel.

There that resident, the great illusionist Mahaamada (Muhammad) who was involved in the works of “Pisacha" (ghastly works of a ghost)

As a side note, Muhammad is clearly supernatural, staying alive into the far future where the main story takes place, but cannot be fully evil, as Muhammad is a servant of Shiva, but remember a lot of Asuras are and there are no fully evil characters in Hinduism (even Kali, who is almost certainly the same as Gabriel).

She made herself to sacrifice her life infront of him. Seeing her, and being pleased, he visited the temple of Marusthalesvara (the lord of desert) which consist of a Linga of Mahadeva (lord Shiva) and started to worship the lord with Sanskrit words. Being pleased with his servant, Lord Shiva appeared and said: - “The woman named Svarnavatee had kidnapped that Krishnaamsa who is staunch Aryan culture follower and very much gallant. Therefore, my servant, please do come with me in the place named “Mayurnagara"

Answer 2

Until the classical/Medieval period, only nearby foreigners were written about and most of those religions no longer exist, or only exist in very small pockets where they have already been heavily influenced by Hinduism.

Despite other answers, this is written:

Those who are versed in the Vedas, who are drinkers of Soma and are purified of sin, pray for the heavenly goal by worshipping Me through sacrifices. Having reached the place (world) of the king of gods, which is the result of righteousness, they enjoy in heaven the divine pleasure of gods.

After having enjoyed that vast heavenly world, they enter into the human world on the exhaustion of their merit. Thus, those who follow the rites and duties prescribed in the three Vedas, and are desirous of pleasures, attain the state of going and returning.

Those persons who, becoming non-different from Me and meditative, worship Me everywhere, for them, who are ever attached (to Me), I arrange for securing what they lack and preserving what they have.

Even those who, being devoted to other deities and endowed with faith, worship (them), they also, O son of Kunti, worship Me alone (though) following the wrong method.

I indeed am the enjoyer as also the Lord of all sacrifices; but they do not know Me in reality. Therefore, they fall [back into Samsara].

Votaries [bhaktis] of the gods [Devas] reach the gods; the votaries of the manes [deceased ancestors] go to the manes; the worshippers of the Beings [literally "things which have come to exist (in the world of experiential reality)" later interpreted as "ghosts, demons, imps, goblins", etc] reach the Beings; and those who worship Me reach Me. — Śrī́mad Bhagavad Gītā Brackets "[]" added by me.

We can better understand other deities by looking at the history of use of that name (as the qualities of deities change over time with folklore) as well as the etymology of the name itself. The name Allah is a reference to the divine as the Almighty: not just the source of all power in the Universe, but necessary for anything to occur at all. This can be equated to Śakti.

"Allah" is related to one of the two halves of the name of the Hebrew deity, YHVH Elohim. The YHVH portion of the name is related to existence & being. Not just svayambhū (self-existing, self-generated), but the root of all existence upon which all other existing things depend (though usually in the sense of creation, unless specifically stated to mean in the sense of preservation). YHVH is the Hebrew conception of the ground of being, like Śiva.

Thus, YHVH Elohim is rooted in the same conception as thee seemingly-dual Saguṇa Brahman: The seat of existence and the seat of action, and the source of all things which have either existence or occurrence, which is all things (as anything else doesn't exist).

However, the Hebrews lived in a different time, in a different place, surrounded by different foreigners, so they were given the mārgas appropriate for them. Unfortunately, the metaphysical similarities between ancient Hebrew and ancient Vedic are so far buried under centuries of tradition, that most people don't even notice them. Meaning, that even modern believers of YHVH Elohim aren't even practicing their own mārgas correctly. Most Christians don't even know his name. If you read the words of Yeshua bar Yosef (modernly called Jesus) you will easily recognize that he has attained mokṣa and attempts to teach others. Unfortunately, if you read Paulos, which is much of the New Testament, then you can see that his message is different to Yeshua's. Paulos wanted to build a church around the Yeshua-bhakti and Yeshua himself never suggested such. Instead he redirected all praise to YHVH Elohim, who he called "father," because he understood that Saguṇa Bhraman is the source of us all.

Such understanding can only be attained from reading foreigner's source material in the original language, just as we do with Sanskrit. So, ipso facto the question is not answerable based on texts prior 500~600 CE. As for post-classical texts, I'll let others answer as these are not important enough to my practice for me to be well-educated on them.

As for the answer regarding Gabriel, it only seems to take the Islamic perspective (which is post-classical) despite the concept of a celestial entity called Gabriel (gaḇrīʾḗl) having existed centuries earlier. It should also be noted that Piśāca (as with other such terms) originally referred to a local tribe of humans that the Vedic peoples fought with. As such, many groups of foreigners have been called Piśāca. The people who are originally referred to as having spoken a Piśāca language are thought to be the Nuristani and or speakers of Dardic languages.
