Ishmael in the Bible and Quran | Dr. Shabir Ally 

I'm Christian and proud, But i gotta say Dr Shabir Ally is quite the respectable and truthful man. My deepest respects to him

This man is very respectful.

I like how he was careful and respectful in comparing the narratives. He is highly intelligent 👏👏👏

I am a Christian, but I believe in order to be strong in our faith, it is important to learn about other beliefs. I have always been interested in the split between Muslim/ Christian/Jewish. The differences between the Quran and the Bible. Thank you for presenting the information from both.

I follow Jesus but let me tell you something : I have nothing but the utmost respect for the Quran and the Muslim religion.

This Muslim teacher teaches very well....i am a Christian but i find this man to be a very good teacher he elaborates very well

As a christian i appreciate how respectful he is. Being that we are both people of the book its fascinating to see how much we have on common

As a Christian, much respect to both of u. Dr Shabir is very intelligent. A great man.God bless.

I love ismaeel(a.s) ❤️ and my prophet muhammad(saws) ❤️ From india 🇮🇳 alhamdulillah ☝️

As a Catholic, I find this man to be a true scholar.

The way God works actually blows my mind. As a follower of Christ Jesus, I’m very impressed with what I learned here. God’s plan is so articulate. I pray whoever reads this finds the way, the truth, and life in Jesus Christ. Amen

I love you Dr Shabir ally, you're indeed a man of great wisdom

I am Catholic a practicing Catholic however I like to learn about other faiths and Dr Shabir I am impressed with the show and how you teach. Your cohost is also very good God bless you.

يقول الله تعالى في سورة المائدة : قل يا أهل الكتاب هل تنقمون منا إلا أن آمنا بالله وما أنزل إلينا وما أنزل من قبل وأن أكثركم فاسقون ) الآية 59 . صدق الله العلي العظيم

This man is trully a man of God..how he speaks with wisdom respect and authenticity aaaaah I want to learn more

Shabir is the person who most Christian's like and respect. Such a gentleman, love this guy.

As a Christian I love his wisdom nd grasp of knowledge. I really wish all christians and Muslims can be like this man instead of spreading hate people should be knowledgeable nd spread 💕 Amen

*Blessing of Ishmael* God in the Bible asserts the blessing of Ishmael’s descendants in more than one verse as shown: Genesis 17:20 And as for Ishmael, I have heard you : behold, *I have blessed him,* and will make him fruitful, and will multiply him exceedingly; twelve princes shall he beget, and I will make him a great nation. Genesis 17:7 And I will establish my covenant *between me and you and your seed* after you throughout their generations for an everlasting covenant, to be a God unto you and to your seed after you. Genesis 21:13 And also of the son of the handmaid will I make a nation, *because he is your seed.* Genesis 21:17 And God heard the voice of the lad. And the angel of God called to Hagar out of heaven, and said unto her, What aileth you , Hagar? Fear not. For God hath heard the voice of the lad where he is. Gen 21:18 Arise, lift up the lad, and hold him in your hand. For I will make him *a great nation.* *What does a blessing of Ishmael mean?* As we see here, God in the Bible is talking about Ishmael being blessed, and that he will have a great nation. According to the Bible, a blessing means prophecy among his descendants. For example if we looked at Genesis 27 at the story when Jacob took the blessing from Esau and its result, we would realize prophets were raised from Esau’s descendants, but many prophets were raised from Isaac’s seed. And Prophet Muhammad ﷺ was raised from Ishmael’s descendants who are the brothers of Israel as the Bible tells in Deuteronomy 18:18. Someone might say that this prophecy was fulfilled in the verse which says that Ishmael shall have 12 sons as in Genesis 25:13-14. Actually if the blessing was just regarding descendants, then actually Esau had two great nations as well, not only the Edomites as mentioned in the Bible, but also the Romans as mentioned in the Talmud, and the greatness of the Roman empire is well known to everybody. So it’s clear here that the blessing is not related to a fruitful nation, otherwise we would have seen Esau blessed as well, but a blessing rather means that a great prophet shall come from Ishmael’s descendants. *Isn’t the covenant of God established with Isaac only?* It might be said that the covenant is with Isaac only as the Bible says: Genesis 17:21 But my covenant will I establish with Isaac, whom Sarah shall bear unto you at this set time in the next year. Well, this was in the beginning, then it was transferred to Ishmael’s descendants, Jesus said to the Jews that the kingdom of God shall be taken away from them: Matthew 21:43 therefore say I unto you, The kingdom of God shall be taken away from you, and shall be given to a nation bringing forth the fruits thereof. Calling Ishmael as a fruitful, that he shall have a great nation is very clear in praising him, otherwise, if God knew that a false prophet came from his descendants where a great nation followed him, why did He describe this nation to be great? Also the nation Jesus told here doesn’t mean the Christian nation, God said that the sign of the covenant between him and the descendants of Abraham shall be the circumcision, which should be one of the fruits of the kingdom of God: Geesisn 17:10 This is my covenant, which ye shall keep, between me and you and thy seed after thee: *every male among you shall be circumcised…* 13 He that is born in thy house, and he that is bought with thy money, must needs be circumcised: and my covenant shall be in your flesh for an *everlasting covenant.* 14 And the uncircumcised male who is not circumcised in the flesh of his foreskin, *that soul shall be cut off from his people; he hath broken my covenant.* So it clearly tells that the sign of this covenant is circumcision, this covenant is everlasting and that the one who don’t circumcise breaks God’s covenant, which Muslims already do while according to Christians , Paul cancelled circumcision. Muslims are the real followers of Abraham. The Bible says: Genesis 12:3 and I will bless them that bless you, and him that curseth you will I curse: and in you shall all the families of the earth be blessed. Muslims bless Abraham at least 5 times a day in their prayer. At the end of every prayer, a Muslim must say: “O Allah! send your Salat (Blessings, Graces, Honors and Mercy) on Muhammad and the family of Muhammad as *You sent Your Salat on Abraham and the family of Abraham.* O Allah! Send Your Blessings on Muhammad and the family of Muhammad as *You sent Your Blessings on Abraham and the family of Abraham.* You are Praiseworthy, Most Gracious.” So if Muslims bless Abraham, the Bible says that God blesses who bless him, how come the followers of a false prophet be blessed by God?

I am a Christian first born of my late mother and I have a brother who is a Muslim from the second marriage of my mother, and I love my brother I don't see religion as a barrier from him being my brother, Muslims and Christians are brothers why can't we live in peace????

Wow I learned so much. Thank you teacher Dr. Shabir Ally

Today while reciting Qur'an I realized another important clue mentioned. When angels gave glad tidings Abraham AS of a son Ishaq (Issac) AS they also gave tidings of the grand son Yaqub AS (Jacob). So when Abraham (AS) is aware that Ishaq AS is going to live and have a grandson. This(Ishaq AS being taken for sacrifice) wouldn't make sense. This thought cleared the iota of confusion in my head today. I firmly believe that Allah means Ismael AS as the one taken by Abraham AS for sacrifice.

A highly respectable man. Great man full of wisdom.

I found the way Dr. Shabir is speaking. Is a intelligent and respected man. It is very hard to found such a great people nowadays in the world.

Coming from a Christian, this is incredibly interesting! Dr. Shabir Ally does a wonderful job at explaining the differences between the two

Our Father, who art in Heaven, hallowed be thy name; thy kingdom come; thy will be done on earth as it is in Heaven. Give us this day our daily bread. And forgive us our trespasses, as we forgive those who trespass against us. And lead us not into temptation; but deliver us from evil. Amen.

A true muslim would never say "Ishmael" but Ismael as written in the Quran MANY TIMES and as muslims use this first name nowadays! Hajar was an teanage Egyptian princess who was kidnapped during war and offered to a king's harem where Sarah was brought as the king wanted her (Ibrahim said she was his sister so that tey don't kill him to free Sarah from marriage). After God paralyzed the king 3 times when he tried to touch Sarah, he let her go and offers her to ask for any present. She then chose Hajar and treated her like a daughter not a servant. Hajar was the most educated person in Ibrahim's tribe, way more than Sarah.

I liked this conversation. As a Christian, what I know true is that Ishmael was blessed directly from God. So what I know for sure is that there were Israelites, Others- (those who served other gods, those who knew of God, those who didn't follow anything ), and Ishmaelits. It doesn't matter to me which son was almost sacrificed because the moral of the story stays the same. Fast forward past all the stories biblical or any others stories and past the prophet; what I know for sure is that Jesus came and tried to marry all three groups and have us as one, died for our sins, and through him are we saved. So what I know for sure is that either all follow Jesus and reconcile with God, or they don't, and they continue believing in their original religion. It really doesn't matter what people choose to believe in just as long as we show love and not force each others beliefs down the others' throat or think one is truer than the other. The Bible doesn't show Jesus to violent or forceful, etc. Through Him we have a new covenant, via His sacrifice, that calls ALL. Looking forward to watching more content, true knowledge is good. Thank you.

He skipped over the fact that Hagar bore Ishmael, not Sarah

Ishmael was chased away together with his mother Hagar at the of aged 13 years after he had mocked Issac during the weaning party that was held in honour of Isaac. Isaac was two years old then. The Mt Moria sacrifice took place after Ishmael was already cast away. So the person concerned should have been Isaac (the only covenant child living with Abraham) and not Ishmael hear. This does not demean Ishmael in any way. He was blessed greatly by God.

I'm Christian too, and I appreciate the calm educational responses of the learned doctor. I really liked the way he recommended that the father should fully inform family members about very big decisions, especially in matters relating to God. Thanks for your video.

And We gave him the glad tidings of Isaac, a prophet among the righteous ones. As saffat 112 Quran

I hate the use of the term "Islamic tradition" Islam is a religion, don't downgrade it to a tradition

Thank you for being respectful unlike Ali Dawah and Zakir Naik

The argument between christianity and Islam is never ending; never coming to a final conclusion. It’s such a head ache. This will go on till the end of time.

Reading about both religion....all comes to the words that we are "one"

I’m a follower of the Bible and when it says in Genesis 22 the reason why he says take Isaac your only son is because by that time Ismael and Hagar had been sent away. And the reason why it says it again later in the chapter is because God made it clear before that the covenant would be only with Issac so he’s the only son that issac has that is worthy in the eyes of the lord to take on what the lord wants from his descendants. That’s what I get from it.

Muslims and Christians are brothers, why so much fighting? Peace to all.

One year after Abraham and Ishmael were circumcised, Isaac was born and circumcised into the Covenant on the 8th day.

WITH DUE RESPECT, ISHMAEL WAS NOT MENTIONED MUCH IN THE BIBLE BECAUSE THE FOCUS IS ISAAC, OF WHOSE LINE OUR SAVIOR CAME FROM...MUCH RESPECT TO YOU DR. ALLY...

Thus said my Master *YHWH* : The heaven is my throne And the earth is my footstool: Where could you build a house for Me, What place could serve as my abode? The Prophet Isaiah 66:1 (Tanakh)

For Muslims, Issac or Ishamel, it doesn't matter who Allah asked to be sacrificed, the important lesson here is Allah wanted to test Abraham (P.B.U.H)'s faith and he passed with flying colors!

I think the whole beauty of Ishmael's sacrifice is that he submits to the will of God, as opposed to Isaac becoming an unwilling sacrifice as told in the Bible. This to me makes sense as Islam is the submission to God and his will, so from a symbolic point of view it all makes sense. And it especially does so, when you consider that the Prophet Muhammed himself is a descendent of Ishamel.

In the Bible it says God was with Ishmael In the wilderness it also says he lived 1,000+ years and gave up the ghost(Holy Spirit)

Without faith is impossible to please God This theme can be debated over and over Sara and Abraham did not illustrate that faith They doubted and as a result Ishmael was born First born of Abraham This is that I arise I’m raised as a Cristian ; and I’m quoting the Bible “ without faith is impossible to please God “ One may say that yes maybe Isaac was suppose to be the chosen one due to the miraculous birth 14 years down the road and claim that because the birth was a miracle On the other hand one may say that God allowed this miraculous birth to take place not to seal not covenant but to show Sara abd Abraham that there lack of faith also caused to loose what he originally intended Men of little faith God does not prize lack of faith but usually illustrates the consequence of the lack of it I’m not taking sides but just making a point Peace be with all my brothers

As a member of the Christian clergy I want to thank Dr. Ally for being so respectful to biblical stories. I am not so sure that many of our clergy would be as respectful. Thank you for the calm way you explain to many of us the stories from the holy Quran.

So informative, thank you. And for not condemning the other religion.

Torah states clearly that Isaac was offering and Sarah passed away because of such a test to Abraham!

God works in mysterious ways

So we are all brothers, Christians, Muslims, Whites, Blacks. Can we stop fighting amongst ourselves and show more love

Abraham answered, "God himself will provide the lamb for the burnt offering my son." The lamb God provided as a substitute was his own son. Everything points to Jesus being sent to save us by his death and resurrection.

we know that the children of Israel are blessed and were enslaved in Egypt. Are you cursing the children of Israel? We know that the Children of Israel are blessed, and they are not harmed by the oppression of Pharaoh, and they are chosen by God Almighty as He chose the children of IsmaEL. And the story of Prophet Joseph , whoever reads it knows the greatness of Prophet Joseph and the greatness of Lady Hagar. Are you objecting to the will of GOD ALMIGHTY. Your words show arrogance and arrogance.IsmaEl, peace be upon him, the son of the Prophet Abraham, you are the son of who ? Ask your mother if you want to. I hope that Muslims will treat you as you deserve.IsmaEL, peace be upon him, son of Abraham the prophet . There is a rule that I think is correct that no one insults a prophet or a prophet’s mother except that he is of lesser affair, and that is because God Almighty chose them with knowledge. who despised them to them is less than them .We know that God Almighty defends those who believe as God Almighty has told that in the Noble Qur’an, and this is what we hope from GOD ALMIGHTY to be a defense. I hope that Muslims will treat you as you deserve .

Isaac was conceived miraculously to a barren mother and a very aged father, with the Quran likewise agreeing (cf. Genesis 17:15-17, 18:9-15, 21:1-7; Galatians 4:28-29; Surah 11:69-73, 51:24-30). Ishmael was conceived normally without the need of any miraculous intervention.

Thank you sir & ma'am. May our Lord bless you always

Ishmael and Hagar were sent away. Then Isaac, Abraham's only son was to be sacrificed. Ordered by God.

*Name of Ismael is described as patient and the chosen and outstanding* 👉🏿 Q 21 : 85 وَ اِسۡمٰعِیۡلَ وَ اِدۡرِیۡسَ وَ ذَاالۡکِفۡلِ ؕ کُلٌّ مِّنَ الصّٰبِرِیۡنَ ﴿۸۵﴾ۚ ۖ And [mention] *Ishmael* and Idrees and Dhul-Kifl; all were of the patient. 👉🏿 Q 38 : 48 وَ اذۡکُرۡ اِسۡمٰعِیۡلَ وَ الۡیَسَعَ وَ ذَاالۡکِفۡلِ ؕ وَ کُلٌّ مِّنَ الۡاَخۡیَارِ ﴿ؕ۴۸﴾ And remember *Ishmael,* Elisha and Dhul-Kifl, and all are among the outstanding.

What about the other sons of Abraham? For He had more than two. Also isn't it that Ishmael was the only son for about 14 years. And Isaac was also the only son in the Household for about 40 years. When Ishmael and His mother Hagar had left.

Great to hear both perspectives

Genesis 22 V 2 said “your only son Isaac”. The Bible is clear on which son. We are biased in our views on biblical principles..this was an interesting discussion and I learned. I had no idea Muslims thought it was Ishmael. Thank you for the discussion.

إِنَّا نَحْنُ نُحْيِي الْمَوْتَىٰ وَنَكْتُبُ مَا قَدَّمُوا وَآثَارَهُمْ ۚ وَكُلَّ شَيْءٍ أَحْصَيْنَاهُ فِي إِمَامٍ مُّبِينٍ - 36:12

The Bible was specific to mention that Isaac was the one whom Abraham was going to sacrificed at Mt Moriah. But in de Qur'an, de name of the son was not mentioned. It is obvious that Hagar and Ishmael were banished long before the sacrifice besides Isaac was the beloved and the covenant child. So it was obvious that de writer(s) of de Qur'an was the one who wanted to twist the story.

A key point not mentioned is Isaac was promised by God and the reason why Isaac was described as Abraham's only son. The birth of Ishmael came about because Sarah took matters into her own hands and offered her slave Hagar to bear children for them. At no point was Hagar a wife of Abraham. Historians have studied Abraham's travels and they have determined that Mecca is too far south of his known routes.

Great personality explains bueatifully God bless him with abundant with knowledge

Very interesting...thank you!

this is really good! :) ..... the "dream" has meaning. Sarah became jealous of Hagar & forced Hagar to flee. Abraham was upset & didn't want sweet Hagar to be alone... same with His son..

Unfortunate not most of us understand and respect their believes like this man of God.

9:40 - Also according to the Bible in Genesis 25:9, Ishmael was there to bury his father Abraham so Abraham never banished his son Ishmael. The author of Genesis made a mistake when he or she wrote that Isaac was Abraham's only son in Gen 22:2.

When we Muslims do Kurbani every year for Eid Al Adha we do just the imitation of that what Abraham/ Ibrahim/Avraam Aleyhisalaam did ! We cannot have his IMAN/FAITH at all !

Even more amazing is the fact that the Quran never mentions the name of the sacrificial child; amazing indeed considering how overzealous some Muslims have been in their attempts to prove that Ishmael, not Isaac, was that son:

Abraham never built the Kaaba in Mecca. He never went to Mecca. Why the stupidity?

The bible tells us... The lord said to Sarah. Be patient, for I will give you a child. And from that child, shall come forth a great nation, which I " the lord" have promised Abraham in a covernant. Sarah doubted the lord, because she was too old to bear children. So Sarah said "Abraham, take my young hand maiden Hagaar and preserve thy seed" which Abraham did, and from that... Ishmael is born. (If we stop and look at it... Sarah and Abraham, disregarded the lords promise to them.... Abraham & sarahs decision to use Haagaar to preserve Abrahams seed was their decision alone.... Not the Lords. Eventually the lord fulfilled his promise to Sarah and she bore Abrahams true heir Isaac. (1) God choose Abraham to be father of all nations, through the blessing of the Abrahamic Covernant. (2) God choose Sarah, to bear Abrahams child. Remember ...Abraham and Sarah were husband & wife. Therefore Isaac is Abrahams legitimate and only heir. This is reflected when the lord calls for Abraham to sacrifice his only son. Isaac. (legitimate son through marriage). The Lord did assure Abraham, that Ishmael, too will be a great nation, and Ismael and his seed shall be blessed in abundance in the land the lord prepares for them.

We need to reassess a person who owned slaves and savagely raped her then left her to die in the middle of the desert with a young child. This same monster tried to kill his own child as a sacrifice. I mean no disrespect to my Muslim brothers and sisters but we need to rethink about old customs that we hold so dearly to our hearts. Think about over hundreds of years we considered a savage butcher a hero in the western world whose genocide wiped out almost all native people of the Carrabin Island where he landed "the butcher Christopher Columbus" and soo many other people of history who turn out to be monsters

The truth is that the prophecy on Ishmael is fulfilled in today's life

You are all related, please get along ❤ yes did huge people always seem to forget about Ishmael son of Abraham

Sarah saw the son (Ismail) whom Hagar the Egyptian had born playing. She said to Abraham, "Cast out that slave-woman and her son, for the son of that slave shall not share the inheritance with my son Isaac." Genesis 21:9,10 (Torah)

For Christians, there are two versions, the Qur’an and the Bible, and I hope for a logical answer far from fanaticism. The Qur'anic narration says that Abraham saw a dream in a dream from God that it says that Sarah was the one who incited Abraham to expel Hagar and her son Ismail, fearing that he would inherit with Isaac. And now without hypocrisy, what is the novel that is the highest degree of humanity? And everyone knows that you believe that Jesus is the savior of humanity, the defender of humanity, and he is against all kinds of evil

Interesting Judeo-Christian and Muslim perspectives of the two sons of Abraham. Adnan Rashid is supposed to be writing a book 'Abraham Fulfilled" to cover this important milestone of the Abrahamic faiths. This came out in his debates tour with Australian scholars, could be with Samuel Green.

Thanks for the video!

A just noticed as I listened to more of this video that a point this man makes is by saying that It is believed by Islam that Ismaël was the son to be sacrificed by his father Abraham. But if one "reads" the Christian bible (which agrees with the Jewish texts) for Genesis 22 it says; Quote; "Now it came to pass after these things that God tested Abraham, and said to him, “Abraham!” And he said, “Here I am.” 2 Then He said, “Take now your son, your only son Isaac, whom you love, and go to the land of Moriah, and offer him there as a burnt offering on one of the mountains of which I shall tell you.” End Quote. Notice that it specifically says "Isaac"; your only son, Isaac"!! Where does Islam get the idea that it was for the other son; Ishmael?? Something is very wrong between these two religions.

He sounds like a wise man. On another note, the robe and suit jacket combo.....

All muslims are Ismaelites/Abrahamites spiritually, but there ethnic ismaelites arround the world or the lost Ismaelites.

The beautiful Qur’anic approach links Prophet ishmaEL with Prophet Ibrahim, as it is in the incident of building the Sacred House of GOD, as Muslims believe in. The Prophet Isaac is also related to Prophet Abraham. It is the fragrant biography of the prophets of GOD ALMIGHTY, whose lofty goal is to worship GOD ALMIGHTY alone and guide people to God Almighty. GOD ALMIGHTY cursed him with belittling the Prophet Ismail, even though he was blessed by the text of the Torah. This is not surprising that he fell into the curse of GOD ALMIGHTY, as the Torah mentioned that that GOD ALMIGHTY spoke to Abraham. GOD ALMIGHTY blesses those who bless Abraham and curses those who curse Abraham. Therefore, it is not surprising that the Prophet Abraham and his son were accused of honor that he lacked honor. The evidence is the large number of prostitutes, fornicators, and foundlings in those societies that did not really know that Abraham should be blessed as Muslims bless him. Praise be to GOD ALMIGHTY who helps his messengers in every time and place......

When god said your only son, it meant his only son from his only wife (sarai)

I am a Christian, but I have long known of the relationship between Isaac and Ishmael and Christianity and Islam. It is not a stretch for me to realize that the God of Abraham is only one "being" since to my knowledge Abraham only worshiped one God. It is sad that the wolves in sheep's clothing that Jesus warned us about have so divided us as people as to think it has to be us or them. I beg to differ, but then, I'm not trying to scare you into sending me your tithes lol! I think of Muslims as my brothers and sister just as I do other Christians. I may disagree on some things, but then, even in Christianity we have dozens if not hundreds of "denominations" that don't agree with each other. I think it's time we sit down and start talking to each other and realize that we have much more in common than we have differences. The Bible teaches us that God made ALL of us. Much respect to this man for approaching this in a fair a balanced way. We need more of that from both "sides" and less propaganda. Bottom line, let's just be kind and respectful to each other. How hard is that?

Where can we buy english version of Quran?

It's funny how Ishmael spoke in the Bible but not the Quran.

We need Rabbis and the likes of Dr.shabir be given time to bring peace in the East.

I like how Dr. Saffiyah tries to keep Dr. Shabir in the topic. G-d bless you guys.

Except that it was God who let his Only Son to the cross. And this time, the knife wasn't spared. He was the lamb who sacrifice for our sins.

There are many muslims brother do not read the Quran thoroughly so some grow up having this belief system that The Quran denies the children of israel as the chosen elect, This is why we have so many Muslims and Christian Wars til this day. KJV Bible Mark 8:18 Having eyes, do you not see? And having ears, do you not hear? And do you not remember? Quran AYAH al-Baqarah 2:122 O Children of Israel, remember My favor which I have bestowed upon you and that I preferred you over the worlds.

Ismael is a description of our beloved Mohammad saw. Never Ismael direct or biological son of Adam.

My Savior only JESUS Chirst ❤️

In every situation, remember that you're never alone. God leads the way, stands by your side, and walks behind you. Approach life with confidence, knowing that God is with you every step of the way. Amen! 🙏❤🙌

Genesis 17: 4: As for Me, Behold, My Convenant is with you, and you shall be a father of many nations. 5: No longer shall your name be called Abram, but your name shall be Abraham ;for I have made you a father of many nations. 6: I will make you exceedingly fruitful; and I will make nations of you, and Kings shall come from you. This was a will of YAHWEH for Abraham to have Ishmael as a son and send him back to his own people as he was from out of wedlock to increase his descendant through all generation. That's unite Islamic and Christian as they all share same father. Father Abraham of many son's. Through faith...

my respect is yours

Jesus(pbuh) was a prophet of Allah. We love and respect him.please do not blaspheme god by saying he beggoted a son.He never begots nor is he begotten. He creates. Just like he created Adam,Eve, Moses,Jesus,Mohammad (Peace be upon them all) ❤

If Abraham was encouraged by Ishmael to give him as a sacrifice he wouldn't be called father of faith. It must have come from his own will

Where the Quran is ambiguous the Bible is crystal clear. 1. Who was sacrificed? Isaac, the child through whom God said he would fulfill all of his promises (Ge 21:12), including blessing the whole world through Abraham's Seed (Ge 20:18). 2. Where was the sacrifice? On Mount Moriah (Ge 22:2), the site of the future Temple of Solomon in Jerusalem (2 Chron 3:1), the only legitimate place of sacrifice for Israel for the next 3000 years (Dt 12:5). 3. Why? To show that Abraham would not have to offer his son, nor would the children of Israel have to offer their sons (as illustrated by the Passover), but instead God would offer his own Son, who is the Seed of Abraham, the Seed of Isaac, the Passover Lamb, the Son of David, and the Seed of the Woman. It would be through this one great sacrifice that God would bless the entire world (Rom 3:25). Jesus: "Your father Abraham rejoiced at the thought of seeing my day; he saw it and was glad." John 8:56

That’s a lie Ishmael is blessed in the bible and states that he will have 12 princes and a great nation

In bible, even the name of Ismael was given by God 😊
