What is the reason why ishmael had to be driven out?

Ishmael was driven out because Sarah, Abraham's wife, was jealous of him being the son of Hagar, her maid. Sarah asked Abraham to send Hagar and Ishmael away to ensure that Isaac, her own son, would be the sole heir.


What started the historic dispute between Isaac and Ishmael?

Abraham did not believe what God told him. God told Abraham that he and his wife Sarah would have a baby. But Abraham thought it was impossible because Sarah was in her 90s. So Sarah told Abraham to sleep with with Hagar there servant, there child was Ishmael. Later, Sarah changed her mind and made Abraham send Hagar and Ishmael away. Some time after this Abraham slept with Sarah and she became pregnant with Isaac.


Why did Hagar walk across the desert?

She did not. Rather, she walked into (not "across") the wilderness (not "desert"), where she and her son settled and lived (Genesis ch.21). The reason was because God commanded Abraham to obey Sarah and send Ishmael (Hagar's son) away from the tent where he lived. Ishmael had been found to be less than worthy of remaining (Genesis, ibid).


Why were Ishmael and his mother thrown out into the wilderness?

Abraham was exceedingly happy when Ishmael was born and wished that Ishmael would be the child of promise, showing little faith in God's abilities. But God corrected Abraham and told him that his son Isaac will fill that role. He had other plans for Ishmael:


Did God tell Abraham to listen to his wife?

Yes, when Sarah saw Ishmael teasing Isaac, she asked Abraham to send Ishmael and his mother, Hagar, away. At first, Abraham did not want to, but God spoke to him, telling him to listen to Sarah's voice. This was the beginning of a fulfillment of a prophecy. Isaac would be the one through whom God's purpose would be fulfilled. The one through whom Messiah would come (Genesis 21:8-13)(Genesis 17:15-21/Genesis 25:5-9) who would provide a hope for ALL mankind, and benefit any who chose to accept it (Genesis 12:3/Galatians 3:14).


Who is Ishmael and why is he significant to Islam?

Ishmael was the son of Abraham and Hagar (an Egyptian princess). Since G0d made Isaac the heir of Abraham and the next link in the chain that led to Judaism, He commanded Abraham to listen to his wife (Sarah) and send Ishmael away. This was a formal act that dealt with the inheritance and they did maintain contact throughout the years. For example, Ishmael attended and helped with Abraham's funeral, while acknowledging that Isaac was his heir. G0d promised Abraham that Ishmael would be the progenitor of a people that would have the traits that described him. These were the Arabs. When Mohammad invented Islam, he changed some of the Bible stories to involve Ishmael and pretended that he was a full prophet.
