Must I believe that Muslims worship MY God?

...but the Catechism seems to state that Islam's God is the same as mine. Must I believe that? Since the Catechism is a product of the ordinary Mageisterium, can I privately disagree with that - or hold a slightly skewed interpretation? See CCC841.

No, you are not required to hold that Muslims worship the same God. The statement in the Catechism is not [i]de fide[/i], nor does it concern a topic that could be defined by the Church's Magisterium.
