Mein Kampf was actually inspired by Christianity and Hitler even says that everything he does is for God in it. However, it is true that Hitler prefered Islam and he said he wouldn't mind Islam taking over Germany as long as the brown Muslims die from the cold climate of Germany and he'd only have a Muslim Aryan Germany.
He also expressed disapproval of Muslims losing a crusade that would have let Islam take over Germany.

You're both ignoring the fact that Hitler was also an evolutionist and a social darwinist. Far from religiously motivated, Hitler’s views were grounded in the secularist and pseudoscientific ideologies of scientific racism and social darwinism. The connection between nazism and social darwinism is more pronounced than between it and any religion in which Hitler expressed contempt and disapproval on many occasions. Nazism basically views Jews as subhumans and that Aryans were Supermen and believes the German race was more evolved and better equipped to rule the world. Hitler might have drawn from many sources for his antisemitism but he was ultimately inspired by evolution more than any religious idea.

Nazism subscribed to theories of racial hierarchy and Social Darwinism, identifying Germans as part of what Nazis regarded as an Aryan or Nordic master race.[2] It aimed to overcome social divisions and create a homogeneous society, unified on the basis of "racial purity" (Volksgemeinschaft). The Nazis aimed to unite all Germans living in historically German territory, as well as gain additional lands for German expansion under the doctrine of Lebensraum, while excluding those deemed either to be community aliens or belonging to an "inferior" race.

In the early 1930s, the Nazis used racialized scientific rhetoric based on social Darwinism to push its restrictive and discriminatory social policies.
Nazi Germany's racially based social policies placed the improvement of the Aryan race through eugenics at the center of Nazis ideology. Those humans were targeted who were identified as "life unworthy of life" (German: Lebensunwertes Leben), including but not limited to Jewish people, criminals, degenerate, dissident, feeble-minded, homosexual, idle, insane, and the weak, for elimination from the chain of heredity. Despite their still being regarded as "Aryan", Nazi ideology deemed Slavs (i.e., Poles, Russians, Ukrainians, etc.) to be inferior to the Germanic master race, suitable for expulsion, enslavement, or even extermination.

Laurence Rees noted that "emphasis on Christianity" was absent from the vision expressed by Hitler in Mein Kampf,in which the universe is ordered around principles of struggle between weak and strong, rather than on conventional Christian notions.[261] Rees argues that Hitler's "bleak and violent vision" and visceral hatred of the Jews had been influenced by quite different sources: the notion of life as struggle he drew from Social Darwinism, the notion of the superiority of the "Aryan race" he drew from Arthur de Gobineau's The Inequality of the Human Races
