Best Answer

Jews, Christians, and Muslims agree they are all descendant from Abraham. However, Christians and Jews specifically believe they are descendant from Isaac, Abraham's second son who is believed to be the son God promised Abraham and his wife. The Muslims believe they are specifically descendant from Ishmael, Abraham's first son. Thus the line of Isaac and the line of Ishmael continue to fight over the Holy Land. To understand this better, read from Genesis, ch. 16 and on. (This in the Old Testament/ Torah [The book of the Jews or the first half of The Bible]. I am not sure if this is included in the Koran [The book of the Muslims]).

Where is the faithful remnant of Judaism today?

According to Judaism, those Jews who believe in God and do his Mitzvot or Commandments are those who are faithful and will have a share in the World to Come.However, Jews typically do not speak of a faithful remnant; this tends to be a Christian designation for ethnic Israelites/Jews who believe that Jesus Christ is the Messiah. Under this rubric, Messianic Jews* who convert to Messianic Judaism from Traditional Rabbinic Judaism or are their descendants are the "faithful remnant". Such a concept of a "faithful remnant of Judaism" is alluded to in Romans 9:27. Jews would not argue that people who believe in Jesus Christ as the Messiah are faithful Jews, but rather that they have abandoned their faith for Christianity.*See this Related Question which discusses how Messianic Judaism is a form of Protestant Christianity.
