We believe that he was a prophet and grandfather to the Israelites. We believe he was father to Jacob (a prophet and the father of Israel) and Esau (Ancestor of prophet Job). He is referred to as Is'Haaq in Arabic.

A common misconception is that he is disliked in Islam, I can assure you this is absolutely not the case, in fact quite the contrary. We also believe that his brother Ishmael wasn't jealous of him nor did he hate his brother.
