Answer:

 

Nations from Abraham Isaac Ismail

In the name of Allah, We praise Him, seek His help and ask for His forgiveness. Whoever Allah guides none can misguide, and whoever He allows to fall astray, none can guide them aright. We bear witness that there is none worthy of worship but Allah Alone, and we bear witness that Muhammad (saws) is His slave-servant and the seal of His Messengers.

 

Bible: Book of Genesis Chapter 17 verses 15-21:

15     And God said unto Abraham, As for Saiai thy wife, thou shalt not call her name Sarai, but Sarah shall her name be.

16     And I will bless her, and give thee a son also of her: yea, I will bless her, and she shall be a mother of nations; kings of people shall be of her.

17     Then Abraham fell upon his face, and laughed, and said in his heart, Shall a child be born unto him that is a hundred years old? and shall Sarah, that is ninety years old, bear?

18     And Abraham said unto God, O that Ishmael might live before thee!

19     And God said, Sarah thy wife shall bear thee a son indeed; and thou shalt call his name Isaac: and I will establish my covenant with him for an everlasting covenant, and with his seed after him.

20     And as for Ishmael, I have heard thee: 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.

21     But my covenant will I establish with Isaac, which Sarah shall bear unto thee at this set time in the next year.

 

Bible: Book of Genesis Chapter 18 verses 17-19:

17     And the LORD said, Shall I hide from Abraham that thing which I do;

18     Seeing that Abraham shall surely become a great and mighty nation, and all the nations of the earth shall be blessed in him?

19     For I know him, that he will command his children and his household after him, and they shall keep the way of the LORD, to do justice and judgment; that the LORD may bring upon Abraham that which he hath spoken of him.

 

Bible: Book of Genesis Chapter 21 verses 9-13::

9        And Sarah saw the son of Hagar the Egyptian, which she had born unto Abraham, mocking.

10    Wherefore she said unto Abraham, Cast out this bondwoman and her son: for the son of this bondwoman shall not be heir with my son, even with Isaac.

11    And the thing was very grievous in Abraham’s sight because of his son.

12    And God said unto Abraham, Let it not be grievous in thy sight because of the lad, and because of thy bondwoman; in all that Sarah hath said unto thee, hearken unto her voice; for in Isaac shall thy seed be called.

13    And also of the son of the bondwoman will I make a nation, because he is thy seed.

70 But when he saw their hands went not towards the (meal) he felt some mistrust of them and conceived a fear of them. They (the Angels) said: "Fear not: we have been sent against the people of Lut."

71 And his wife was standing (there) and she laughed: but We gave her glad tidings of Isaac and after him of Jacob.

72 She said: "Alas for me! Shall I bear a child seeing I am an old woman and my husband here is an old man? That would indeed be a wonderful thing!"

73 They (the Angels) said: "Dost thou wonder at Allah's Decree? The grace of Allah and His blessings on you O ye people of the house! For He is indeed worthy of all praise full of all glory!"

 

Allah Says in the Holy Quran Chatper 2 Surah Baqaah verse 124:

124 And remember that Abraham was tried by his Lord with certain commands which he fulfilled; He said: "I will make thee an Imam (leader) to all the nations." He pleaded: "And also (Leaders) from my offspring!" He (Allah) answered: "But my promise is not within the reach of evil-doers."

54 He said: "Do ye give me glad tidings that old age has seized me? Of what then is your good news?"

55 They said: "We give thee glad tidings in truth: be not then in despair!"

56 He said: "And who despairs of the mercy of his Lord but such as go astray?"

 

Allah Says in the Holy Quran Chatper 29 Surah Ankabut verse 27:

Allah Says in the Holy Quran Chatper 19 Surah Maryam verses 58-59:

58 Those were some of the prophets on whom Allah did bestow His Grace of the posterity of Adam and of those whom We carried (in the Ark) with Noah and of the posterity of Abraham and Israel of those whom We guided and chose; whenever the Signs of (Allah) Most Gracious were rehearsed to them they would fall down in prostrate adoration and in tears.

59 But after them there followed a posterity who missed prayers and followed after lusts: soon then will they face destruction.

 

Allah Says in the Holy Quran Chatper 28 Surah Saad verses 45-48:

45 And commemorate Our servants Abraham Isaac and Jacob possessors of power and vision.

46 Verily We did chose them for a special (purpose) proclaiming the Message of the Hereafter.

84 Say: "We believe in Allah and in what has been revealed to us and what was revealed to Abraham, Ismail, Isaac, Jacob, and the Tribes and in (Books) given to Moses Jesus and the Prophets from their Lord; we make no distinction between one and another among them and to Allah do we bow our will in submission."

85 If anyone desires a religion other than Islam (submission to Allah) never will it be accepted of him; and in the Hereafter he will be in the ranks of those who have lost (all spiritual good).

 

Allah Says in the Holy Quran Chatper 4 Surah Nisaa verses 163-166:

163 We have sent thee inspiration as We sent it to Noah and the Messengers after him; We sent inspiration to Abraham, Ismail, Isaac, Jacob, and the Tribes, to Jesus, Job, Jonah, Aaron, and Solomon, and to David We gave the Psalms.

164 Of some Prophets We have already told thee the story; of others We have not; and to Moses Allah spoke direct.

165 Prophets who gave good news as well as warning that mankind after (the coming) of the Prophets should have no plea against Allah: for Allah is Exalted in Power Wise.

Allah Says in the Holy Quran Chatper 3 Surah Ale-Imraan verses 33-34:

113 We blessed him and Isaac: but of their progeny are (some) that do right and (some) that obviously do wrong to their own souls.

 

Allah Says in the Holy Quran Chatper 19 Surah Maryam verses 49-50:

49 When he (Abraham) had turned away from them and from those whom they worshipped besides Allah, We bestowed on him Isaac and Jacob and each one of them We made a prophet.

50 And We bestowed of Our Mercy on them and We granted them lofty honor on the tongue of truth.

 

Your Question: ….the angle say that God would bless Her son and would make his dissended also a great person,what do you have to say about this.

The Noble Prophet Abraham had two sons, both of whom were declared righteous and Prophets by the Lord: the elder was Ismail from Hagar, and the younger was Isaac from Sarah…… and as confirmed by the above quotations from both the Bible and the Quran, the Lord promised that He will build nations from both the seeds of Abraham.

 

The Lord Most High fulfilled His Covenent and from the progeny of the Noble Prophet Isaac rose the great nation of Israel with Prophets as great as Jacob, and Joseph, and Moses, and Aaron, and David, and Solomon, and Jonah, and Job, and Zakariyah, and John the Baptist, and finally Jesus (may peace be upon them all).

 

The Lord Most Exalted also fulfilled His covenent to build a nation from the seed of the Noble Prophet Ismail….for the Last and Final Messenger of Allah, Prophet Mohamed (saws) is a direct descendant of the Noble Prophet Ismail, son of Abraham (may peace be upon them all).

 

Allah Says in the Holy Quran Chatper 2 Surah Baqarah verses 136-137:

136 Say ye (O Muslims): "We believe in Allah and the Revelation given to us and to Abraham, Ismail, Isaac, Jacob, and the Tribes, and that given to Moses, and Jesus and that given to (all) Prophets from their Lord we make no difference between one and another of them and we bow to Allah (in Islam)."

137 So if they believe as ye believe they are indeed on the right path; but if they turn back it is they who are in schism; but Allah will suffice thee as against them and He is the All-Hearing the All- Knowing.

 

The Quran is in agreement with the contents of the Bible regarding the covenant of the Lord to emerge great nations and Prophets from both the seeds of Abraham, from the descendants of the Noble Prophets Isaac and from Ismail.

 

Whatever written of Truth and benefit is only due to Allah’s Assistance and Guidance, and whatever of error is of me alone. Allah Alone Knows Best and He is the Only Source of Strength.

 

Your brother and well wisher in Islam,

 

 

Burhan
