The handmaid's name was Hagar. She was Sarah's servant, and Abraham had a child with her named Ishmael in order to fulfill God's promise of descendants.
Ishmael and his mother, Hagar, were thrown out into the wilderness by Abraham due to Sarah's jealousy and demands. Sarah, Abraham's wife and Ishmael's stepmother, felt threatened by Ishmael's presence as he was also Abraham's son, prompting Abraham to send them away as he believed it was God's will.
Yes, Ishmael and Esau did worship the same God as Abraham, who is considered the patriarch of the Abrahamic religions (Judaism, Christianity, and Islam). They all followed the monotheistic faith that believes in one God.
"I" stance for Ellah or Illah the Arabic word for Allah (GOD) "sh" it means hear. I am not a linguist but I have studied Arabic, Persian and English. The meaning of the name Ishmael means God hear. Apparently this was for the crying of Ibrahim asking God to give him a son. This name was chosen by God.
Which God are you talking about? If it happened to be the God of The Bible, well he did promise not to drown humanity with a flood again.
Ishmael was not the promised son from God. Ishmael came about because Sarah gave Abraham Hagar to produce a son thinking that they would help God out with His promise of a son. A big mistake. Abraham was 86 years old when Ishmael was born.
The Ka'bah is the House of God built by Abraham and his son, Ishmael, for the worship of the One God. It is "The Ancient House". It was built as part of God's promise to bring a Prophet from the descendants of Ishmael.

AnswerThe Israelites believed that God had made a promise to Abraham that his successors would inherit the land of the Canaanites. This would have included other, non-Hebrew people such as the Arabs, said in The Bible to be descendants of Ishmael, so the promise or covenant was later refined to include only the descendants of Israel.

There is no hate in God. I promise you that.
in a nutshell. Abraham had two sons, Isaac and ishmael. ishmael was the older of the two whom Abraham had with his bondservent, this is not what God intended. thus Abraham had another son with his wife fufilling Gods promise. as they became older ishmael and his mother left abrahams camp and pursued there own way of doing things. Muslims followed the ways of ishmael and christians followed the wats of isaac. this is why there are so many things that appear to be the same between Muslims and christians, but believe me there are many similarities the few differences are drastic.
Answer:The Bible says that Abraham took Ishmael and his mother Hagar to "Paran". This is the first name for the valley of Mecca. In Arabic, "Faran", means "two runaways". When a caravan from Yemen came North and was near the valley of Mecca, they saw birds flying over the valley; so they decided to investigate to see if there was water there. In fact they did find water there - because of the well that sprang up at Ishmael's feet, which is another story mentioned in the Bible. But when they saw that there was a woman and her child, alone in that valley, they named it "Faran" - the two runaways.The Land of Ishmael is the Arabian Peninsula. the promise of God to make Ishmael "a great nation" was fulfilled when, from Ishmael's descendants, came the Final Prophet, Muhammad.
