Talk:Ishmael in Islam

WikiPedia Islam Discrepency

Abram was age 86 when Ishmael born thus the topic Abram in Islam shows 2510BH to here be fathering Ishmael in 2424BH. But that article says (astral-1812) 1813bc Abram to this article Ishmael 1800bc (astral -1799). Before you question the following donated data, please face the fact Abram did not father Ishmael at age 13.

This seems to be a calendar issue of Sothic (Julian) years versus lunar 354-day years. With 621AD as year ZERO or 1BH, and 620bc as year -1 or 2BH, for Ishmael the lunar-year -2423 = 2424BH in (astral -1730) = 1731bc and the lunar-year -2424 = 2425BH in (astral -1731) = 1732bc which is why Abram is then -2509 = 2510BH in (astral -1813) 1814bc or -2510 = 2511BH in (astral -1814) 1815bc. This astral -1813 for Abram (1814bc) is the year after Jewish Seder Olam uses 1813bc for his birth. Thus somewhere Egyptian-Moslem chronology was dumped and ditched for Jewish-Moslem. This is clear because the 622AD for year 6000 is clearly derived from 3744 years since a 2256am Flood in 3122bc based on Thoth calendar as 2782bc July 20. These 86 lunar years from 2424-2510 are only 83 Julian years 1731-1814bc. But if you go back 2424 Julian years to Ishmael (astral -1802) = 1803bc, it is Abram's 2510 Julian in (astral -1888) = 1889bc. So when Abram is born Julian 1889bc or 1814bc lunar (75-year dif) then Ishmael is born 86 years later as Julian 1889-1803bc, or 86 lunar-years (Abram 1814-1731bc). There is significance in 1813bc and 1730bc. The connection between Genesis and Jewish is that Terah dies at age 205 in 1943bc when Abram is 75; but adding the next Marduk 205-year cycle of Mars to 1738bc and as we have Abram headed to Egypt at 75 when Terah dies at 205 (some say 145) it recycles in 1738bc as an issue of is he 205 or 145 in 1738bc. Jewish Seder Olam says Abram was born in 1813bc and Terah died 75 years later in 1738bc.

But the thing is that Joseph was released from prison 205 years after Terah died. Thus Joseph rose up or entered Egypt's royal palace (not into Egypt at age 17, but into palace at age 30) in 1738bc or 205 years after Abram had done so 1943bc. Thus that pivots on Abram too being born 205 years later not 2018bc but 1813bc (where Jewish Seder Olam and Moslem agree in the same error). But with Ur's king Shulgi the Dungi ruling 48 years from 1991-1943bc, the Egyptian claim gets tossed out by Moslems that Abram was born 48 years earlier in 2066bc not 2018bc, and came to Egypt to honor 12th dynasty 1991bc not 1943bc, thus Moslem chronology had to shift 253 years from a 2066bc Abram to an 1813bc Abram. (48+205) The 75-year Abram 2018–1943bc is 1991–2066bc in Egypt (and original Moslem) but changes to agree with Jewish 1813–1738bc.

Another factor is then Joseph (accused of taking over Egypt) was exonerated when famine did come (though Moses said farm just 6 because 7 years causes famine). This authority by Pharaoh in 1738bc to begin 1737bc, became authority by God via famine in 1730bc. As anyone could have built arks like Noah, anyone could have saved food like Joseph. Thus in 1730bc Egypt our Israel (Abram/Isaac/Jacob) becomes HOUSE of God. Yet Moslem claim of Ishmael born in 1730bc would claim Ishmael as HOUSE of God. Likewise, Israel did come to Egypt 3 times in two years 1730-1728bc. So there is a definite tie between the mistaken 1813bc, and the confused events of 1730-1728bc as 75 of Abram (1813-1738bc) or as Abram's 86 for Ishmael (1813-1728bc). And 86 lunar years is only 83 Julian (1813–1730bc).

Binding of Isaac in Islam

I have edited this article I don't think there is anything to say because the sources for that was the Quran and the verses of the Quran are mentioned in the edited article and I've also kept a conclusion and literal proof for the editings I have made

One thing I deleted was the theory that some Muslim scholars say that Isaac and Jacob were both promised for Sarah so this means Ishmael was sacrificed. This Beleif and theory is false! because never does the Quran say in Arabic so? the verses that talk about Isaac and Jacob in arabic states that "we gave her the good news of Isaac and after Isaac Jacob" but what many english speakers don't know is that in Arabic grammer the letter BA was kept beside Isaac's name. the letter BA is a letter kept when someone wants to use the word 'with" so the Quran said we gave her glad tidings with Isaac by using the letter BA but however after that the Quran clearly says and after him we gave good news of Jacob but it doesnt use the letter BA the letter BA was only used with Isaac meaning that the angels came to talk about Isaac but after Isaac grew and the sacrifice occured god told Abraham about the birth of Jacob because the style of the Quran tends to talk about something and then states the future act .. the Quran clearly says that the three angels only gave news of Isaac in many verses i mentioned in the article and there is no verse talking about Jacob and the three angels except this one and like i mentioned earlier this verse used the letter BA to say with "we gave her glad tidings with Isaac'" BUT IT DOESNT USE THE LETTER BA WITH JACOB so clearly this verse talks about Isaac and then states the future of when Jacob was born long after Isaac grew with his father TO WALK AND WORK .. nowhere in Islamic tradition or the Quran it states that Jacob had a relation with the tidings of Isaac.. so this is another proof as well as I MYSELF HAVE EDITED THE ARTICLE AND CLEARY MADE THE STORY CLEAR SO A READER WOULD DEFINATLY UNDERSTAND MY POINT WITHOUT HAVING A LOOK AT THIS TALK PAGE... there are many things i didnt mention AS PROVE OF THE BINDING OF ISAAC IN ISLAM like the birth of Isaac give to Abraham when Abraham left his people or when abraham was ordered to sacrifice the un-named son who grew up with him and was given to him miraculously and clearly every knows that Ishmael was taken away from Abraham when he was just a baby nor did Ishmael have a miraculous birth nor did he live with his father to work and walk ....the quranic verse are kept in the article! ... Il put some here to make it easier to see

037.083 YUSUFALI: Verily among those who followed his Way was Abraham.

037.084 YUSUFALI: Behold! he approached his Lord with a sound heart.

037.085 YUSUFALI: Behold! he said to his father and to his people, "What is that which ye worship?

037.086 YUSUFALI: "Is it a falsehood- gods other than Allah- that ye desire?

037.087 YUSUFALI: "Then what is your idea about the Lord of the worlds?"

037.088 YUSUFALI: Then did he cast a glance at the Stars.

037.089 YUSUFALI: And he said, "I am indeed sick (at heart)!"

037.090 YUSUFALI: So they turned away from him, and departed.

037.091 YUSUFALI: Then did he turn to their gods and said, "will ye not eat (of the offerings before you)?...

037.092 YUSUFALI: "What is the matter with you that ye speak not (intelligently)?"

037.093 YUSUFALI: Then did he turn upon them, striking (them) with the right hand.

037.094 YUSUFALI: Then came (the worshippers) with hurried steps, and faced (him).

037.095 YUSUFALI: He said: "Worship ye that which ye have (yourselves) carved?

037.096 YUSUFALI: "But Allah has created you and your handwork!"

037.097 YUSUFALI: They said, "Build him a furnace, and throw him into the blazing fire!"

037.098 YUSUFALI: (This failing), they then sought a stratagem against him, but We made them the ones most humiliated!

037.099 YUSUFALI: He said: "I will go to my Lord! He will surely guide me!

037.100 YUSUFALI: "O my Lord! Grant me a righteous (son)!"

037.101 YUSUFALI: So We gave him the good news of a boy ready to suffer and forbear.

037.102 YUSUFALI: Then, when (the son) reached (the age of) (serious) work with him, he said: "O my son! I see in vision that I offer thee in sacrifice: Now see what is thy view!" (The son) said: "O my father! Do as thou art commanded: thou will find me, if Allah so wills one practising Patience and Constancy!"

037.103 YUSUFALI: So when they had both submitted their wills (to Allah), and he had laid him prostrate on his forehead (for sacrifice),

037.104 YUSUFALI: We called out to him "O Abraham!

037.105 YUSUFALI: "Thou hast already fulfilled the vision!" - thus indeed do We reward those who do right.

037.106 YUSUFALI: For this was obviously a trial-

037.107 YUSUFALI: And We ransomed him with a momentous sacrifice:

037.108 YUSUFALI: And We left (this blessing) for him among generations (to come) in later times:

037.109 YUSUFALI: "Peace and salutation to Abraham!"

037.110 YUSUFALI: Thus indeed do We reward those who do right.

037.111 YUSUFALI: For he was one of our believing Servants.

This verse says the WHOLE STORY ... a son was given to Abraham after Abraham left his pagan people and THIS SON WAS UN NAMED BUT WHAT THE READER CAN TAKE AS A CLUE IS THAT THE UN-NAMED SON WAS A CHILD GIVEN TO ABRAHAM AFTER HE LEFT HIS PAGAN PEOPLE

019.041 YUSUFALI: (Also mention in the Book (the story of) Abraham: He was a man of Truth, a prophet.

019.042 YUSUFALI: Behold, he said to his father: "O my father! why worship that which heareth not and seeth not, and can profit thee nothing?

019.043 YUSUFALI: "O my father! to me hath come knowledge which hath not reached thee: so follow me: I will guide thee to a way that is even and straight.

019.044 YUSUFALI: "O my father! serve not Satan: for Satan is a rebel against (Allah) Most Gracious.

019.045 YUSUFALI: "O my father! I fear lest a Penalty afflict thee from (Allah) Most Gracious, so that thou become to Satan a friend."

019.046 YUSUFALI: (The father) replied: "Dost thou hate my gods, O Abraham? If thou forbear not, I will indeed stone thee: Now get away from me for a good long while!"

019.047 YUSUFALI: Abraham said: "Peace be on thee: I will pray to my Lord for thy forgiveness: for He is to me Most Gracious.

LOOK AT THIS

019.048 YUSUFALI: "And I will TURN away from YOU (ALL) and from those whom ye invoke besides Allah: I will call on my Lord: perhaps, by my prayer to my Lord, I shall be not unblest."

019.049 YUSUFALI: When he had TURNED away from THEM and from those whom they worshipped besides Allah, We bestowed on him Isaac and Jacob, and each one of them We made a prophet.

these verses talk about ISAAC GIVEN TO ABRAHAM WHEN ABRAHAM LEFT HIS PAGAN PEOPLE SO THIS PROVES THAT THE UN-NAMED SACRIFICED SON WAS ISAAC BECAUSE THE EARLIER VERSE THAT MENTIONS THE SACRIFICE SAYS ABRAHAM WAS GIVEN A UN-NAMED SON ....... WHO WAS GIVEN TO HIM RIGHT AFTER HE LEFT HIS PAGAN PEOPLE AND LIKE I SAID .. THESE VERSES CLEARLY MENTIONS ISAAC BY NAME AS THE UN-NAMED SON WHO WAS GIVEN TO ABRAHAM WHEN HE LEFT HIS PAGAN PEOPLE.. so the conclsion is ... Isaac was binded  :)

Please read the reliable source guidelines - they do not include exegesis as an option. ALSO, TYPING IN ALL CAPS IS LIKE SHOUTING ON THE INTERNET.

I wasnt shouting I was adding where I want you to focus but unfortuantly u didnt! ... this isnt exegesis these are Qurnic verses I provided who cares about Exgesis i Just said that as a historical fact but what better source is there than the Holy Quran ..? seriously Have u had a look at the verses ,, i can provide more but you must tell me what is wrong so I can know?!

and btw This is not called vandilizing this is called editing with providing proof and making it simple with providing the Only sources of Islam .. The Holy Quran and the Sunnah and some History .. WT ELSE? please have a look at it and read it so i can know why was my editiing removed because the exegesis excuse wont work .. i didnt provide any exegesis all i said was one sentecne concerning exegesis .. dunno whats the big deal bout it?Highdeeboy (talk) 19:21, 6 March 2010 (UTC)

Wikipedia does not accept original research, which includes taking something from one source and take something from another source, and combine them to make a new statement, and If you could find a single source that makes your point, then. You provided Tafsir, an interpretation of the Quran, which in English is called Exegesis. Ian.thomson (talk) 20:11, 6 March 2010 (UTC)

NO I DIDNT! Exgesis is interpretation and explanation ,.. i provided verses ... u know what ure doing what u claim u are doing ,..you are using GENESIS TO EXPLAIN THE QURAN SO I FIND IT IRONIC THAT URE CRITISIZING ME AND CALLING MY VERSES TAFSIR BUT ANYWAYS IL PROVIDE U WITH VERSES FROM ANOTHER CHAPTER OF THE QURAN WITHOUT ANY TAFSIR AND U SEE THE LOGIC .. :)

021.051 YUSUFALI: We bestowed aforetime on Abraham his rectitude of conduct, and well were We acquainted with him. 021.052 YUSUFALI: Behold! he said to his father and his people, "What are these images, to which ye are (so assiduously) devoted?"

(this is no exegesis iam just asking u to focus on Abraham's father mentioned here ...)

021.068 YUSUFALI: They said, "Burn him and protect your gods, If ye do (anything at all)!"

(this is from the same sura .. it talks about Abraham's people burning him and his father was obviously involved like i mentioned in the earlier verse)

021.072 SHAKIR: And We gave him Ishaq and Yaqoub and We made (them) all good.

now take these two points with u ...: Abraham's dad and the fire happened before the giving of Isaac

Now .. this chapter talks about the sacrifice after .. the two points (Abraham's dad and the fire) see for yourself

037.085 YUSUFALI: Behold! he said to his father and to his people, "What is that which ye worship? (ABRAHAM;S DAD) 037.097 YUSUFALI: They said, "Build him a furnace, and throw him into the blazing fire!" (THE FIRE) 037.101 YUSUFALI: So We gave him the good news of a boy ready to suffer and forbear. (whos this boy? ... its Isaac because the earlier chapter says after Abraham left his father and the fire he was given Isaac ....)

037.102 YUSUFALI: Then, when (the son) reached (the age of) (serious) work with him, he said: "O my son! I see in vision that I offer thee in sacrifice: Now see what is thy view!" (The son) said: "O my father! Do as thou art commanded: thou will find me, if Allah so wills one practising Patience and Constancy!"

common sense ... ansewr me a question .. we both know that Ishmael and Hagar were taken out when Ishmael was a baby cariied in Hagar's shoulder and Abraham left them there ... so how in god;s green earth could this be Ishmael if it says the sacrificed son grew and walked and worked WITH his dad .. this is talking about Isaac growing WITH HIS FATHER IN CANAAN WHEN ISHMAEL WAS IN ARABAIA WITH HIS MOTHER ....

I am not providing exegesis i am just guiding and helping so understand my point i can't just say X=0 Y=9 ..I am not telling u my interpretation or opinion or imagination i am asking u to read these verses do research and see the common sense .. i PROVIDED U WITH MANY VERSES FORM MANY CHAPTERS UP! this is extra info .. wt else sir?

please do not provide Genesis accounts because we don't believe in genesis and when u examine the Quran u examine itself alone u do not mix something with it .. that's not called assesment? and besides we don't believe in Genesis so all what it brings is confusion and corruption, thank you.Highdeeboy (talk) 12:47, 7 March 2010 (UTC)

Again, TYPING IN ALL CAPS IS LIKE SCREAMING ON THE INTERNET. Cross referencing verses to clarify them is interpretting them. I am not calling the verses Tafsir, I am saying that they are being used for Tafsir/Exegesis/interpretation. I am not defending the Genesis account. I have no problem with the article including properly sourced additions discussing how there are notable interpretations, but this site is not to be used to advocate any particular interpretation. If you can provide some source that says that some people interpret the Quran that way, then that would be a good addition. Ian.thomson (talk) 01:00, 8 March 2010 (UTC)

.. I THOUGHT U SAID U DONT WANT EXEGESIS GO AND LOOK UP IBN JARIR EXEGESIS CAUSE I JUST FIND NO INTREST IN DEALING WITH U!Highdeeboy (talk) 15:44, 4 April 2010 (UTC)

Isma'il

    '(Isma in Arabic means 'to listen' i.e answer prayer, and ell is derived from the Chaldean-Semitic word el, meaning God)'

1)'to listen' is the infenite state, which does not exist in arabic! 2)We have no alif-lam (God) but ayn-lam in 'il. 3)The semitic root for hear is sin-mim-ayn. Isma'il however is sin-mim, hence the dammah id of the ayn and the fatha of the mim.

Birth paragraph

I just made minor edits in the Birth paragraph to clean up technical errors. I wondered about these two items but wasn't sure enough to make the edits:

1. "The story of the birth of Ishmael is considered particularly important in Islam as it is mostly mentioned as part of the narrative of Abraham."

   >>  Shouldn't that be "not considered particularly important"?

2. The Jewish and Christian view ... is that Abraham sent Hagar and Ishmael away at God's command, in accordance with Sarah's proclamation, "this boy will not be an heir with my son Isaac (Genesis 21:10)

   >> As an academically oriented, lifelong Christian, I have to say that I've never heard that view.  In any event, "God's command" is not seen in "Sarah's proclamation," so this seems weak.  I would recommend that the statement be radically altered or perhaps deleted altogether.

Blcasey (talk) 01:25, 7 December 2015 (UTC)blcasey

I checked the source on the first point and you're right. I'm not sure I understand you about the second one. It seems like a fair characterization of Genesis 21:10-12. Eperoton (talk) 02:05, 7 December 2015 (UTC)

Scripture dates

Valient6 Please do a bit of research and cite reliable sources for any content you add. The dates you're trying insert here are wide off the mark. More generally, dates should only be mentioned to the extent that RSs discussing this topic consider them to be significant. Contrary to your suggestion, this article doesn't deal with history, but rather with legends, and the significance of textual dating requires source-based justification. Thanks.
