And Quran says in Sura Albaqara

“O you who have believed, enter into Islam completely and perfectly and do not follow the footsteps of satan. Indeed he is to you a clear enemy.” (Quran, 2:208)

So Islam and Muslims can only be the same if a follower of Islam follows his or her religion and enters into Islam completely. Following the basics is obligatory and being practical in following the Quran and Sunna is also equally important to be known as a true believer. In Chapter 7 Al Hashr, Allah Says,

“And what the Messenger gives you, so take it, and what he prohibits you, so refrain from it. And be in awe of Allah. Surely Allah is Stern of Punishment.” (Al-hashr 7)

So Islam is not only saying a few words, offering Salat five times, Paying Zakat, offering Hajj and fasting for one month. These are the basics and obligatory for Muslims but at the same time, these are the reminders and practices that the believers are sent into this world with the responsibilities and they are the representatives of Allah SAW and the preachers of His religion. As mentioned in Ale Imran, 

“You are the best nation produced [as an example] for mankind. You enjoin what is right and forbid what is wrong and believe in Allah. If only the People of the Scripture had believed, it would have been better for them. Among them are believers, but most of them are defiantly disobedient.” (Ale Imran 3:110)

Prophets SAW life was exemplary for us and in every walk of life he is the epitome of perfection for the Muslims.

Muslim is only known as a true Muslim if he or she follows Islam in every sense and he or she is not only a Muslim because of his looks and appearances. What makes a Muslim a true one and the yardstick with which he can be regarded as a true follower of Islam is his practicality, his true submission to the will of Allah and strong adherence to the Sunnah of the Prophet SAW.

How and why Islam and Muslims the same and why not?

It is the matter of practicality, without being practical Muslim the mentioned terms are not the same as these are not the meanings of the terms that matter but the attitude towards the basic teachings is all that is important.
