In the Bible, we have the true story of Abraham. Abraham was a godly man, but, like all humans,
he wasn't perfect. God told him that he would have a son, but Sarah, his wife, told him that she was too old to bear
a child. Because she did not believe that God would keep His promise to Abraham, she told her husband to go and lie
down with her maid Hagar. Well, Abraham did and Hagar had a son. She named him Ishmael. Later
on, Sarah also had a son (just like God had promised) and she named him Isaac. Ishmael and Isaac never got along.
They were always fighting. Abraham eventually had to send Hagar and Ishmael away because of the strife that they were
causing in his family. Ishmael is the fore-father of the Muslims. Isaac is one of the fore-fathers of the Israelis.
Isaac and Ishmael never got along. Any questions?
