AnswerAccording to the Book of Kings, all the kings of the northern kingdom of Israel were polytheistic, without exception.

Of the kings of Judah, only Hezekia and Josiah are reported as rejecting the other gods. Although Kings says that Hezekia made Yahweh-only monotheism the official religion of Judah, this probably had little impact on the ordinary people who continued to worship their other gods, evident because his successors immediately restored the old polytheist customs. Similarly, Josiah's successors allowed a return to the old beliefs.

So, almost every king of Israel and Judah led their people away from God, or at least accepted the decision of the people to worship other gods.

Who the bible says is the father of the Muslims and what the bible says how he will act like and his treatment of others?

The Bible says nothing whatever about Muslims, or their father, or how he will behave, or how he will treat other people.Muslims perceive Abraham and his son Ishmael as their spiritual forebears. But the Bible does not predict how these people "will behave" or "will treat others". It only recounts, in the past tense, how Abraham and Ishmael did behave or didtreat others, as a past historic event.The Bible in general does not talk about "submission" or "submitted people" as the basic quality of God's people, although it does mention "turning" (to God; away from sin). The Bible says more about the "people of the Covenant" or the "chosen people". The core characteristic of God's people is that they have received God's promises.
