Muslims believe that Ishmael should be included in the prophetic line, yet it is clear from the Bible (and a certain aya in the Qur'an, S. 29:27) that there was only ONE line which God would work through, and that was the line of Isaac. To understand this, one needs to look at the discussion Abraham had with God on the issue of Ishmael and Isaac, in Genesis 17:18-21, and God's clear and unique choice of Isaac in Genesis 22:2, 12, & 16. This clear choice of Isaac over Ishmael and a brilliant application of the difference between the progeny of both is best explained by the apostle Paul, where he says categorically that we are to have nothing to do with the slave woman's son, Ishmael, for we are from the free woman's son, Isaac, the son of promise (Galatians 4:21-31).

  • Abraham had 8 children ..not only 2 or 1 as some verses in the Bible states

  • For all those that claim Qur'an to be inspired by the Devil, it does not have any characterists of such a revelation. Only through the Qur'an have such a multitude of people ranging from Black and White, Egyptians, Turks, Indians, Malays and the many more have been united under 1 banner of pure monothiesm. Jews have had very little impact of such nature and christians since beginning have been fighting over th simplest questions of Jesus' and God's nature. Qur'an has been revealed to solve this.

  • 2/2 "Choosen above all other nations". Overall though they have failed in their duty and have made Judaism something private which can only be inherited! Thus the task of spreading God's word has been given to another nation that has performed it very well. This is the other bloodline of Abraham, the Ishamaelites. Qur'an contains the full and complete revelation after which no more prophets are needed, their is nothing to be prophecied any more, nothing new to be added or removed.

  • 1/2 Abraham was not a Jew since the Torah had not been revealed until than, God blessed the lineage of Isaac with many prophets but the Jews always behaved with a hard heart. Breaking commandments and even killing prophets, their rejection of Jesus and attempt at his crucification was the worst thing they could have done when they were already overpowered by pagans. The Isrealites were supposed to share their message of God with others and lead them to God, this IS the reason that they were...

  • not all the prophets from the line of Isaac, because Adam, Enoch, Noah, and Shuaib, Sauli, Hud all came before Abraham. Lot was also a prophet along with Abraham. God is unlike humans who will reject without a cause. After all God covers all, created all. In your bibles since you have so many of them, you will find God calling Ishmael the only son of Abraham. A first child is always, especially when he didn't sell his birthright like the son of the deceitful woman.

  • Prophetic line? A God is universal but yet limited to particular races.

  • Abraham, so are the Jews in the holly city from the line of Abraham? For the most part no, just a very few are from Abraham. the rest are imposters!
