Not really. He was a prince in a branch of Judaism that often lists Jesus as a prophet. Kinda. You’re gonna have to hit Wikipedia or YouTube. Religion for breakfast maybe?
Sabianism is interesting, because I’ve read (don’t recall the source, sorry!) that they had a chance to convert to Islam or die, so they became “technically” Muslim, without really being Muslim.

I read his biography before and explicitly remember him becoming a Muslim at 40.
Before that he was either hanif or agnostic depending on sources but I don’t remember him following Judaism.

Although I’m not that versed with the story of Mohammed
Edit: basically Islam and Christianity developed out of Judaism, but they differ in who they see as the promised Messiah
