Ok, found what I was going to ask:
And found this from Niass too that would be interesting to know I reckon:So Muslims believe it was actually Ishmael? Can someone tell me how this story is written differently in the Quran (sp?) to portray the different beliefs (i.e. which child was actually the child of promise). Interested to know what it says differently. Thanks guys!
When I looked back through the posts I also found this:um, I have another question about Islam...I was driving around earlier thinking about this thread and and wondered how is the begining of the earth told. Like in the bible and Genesis starts with "in the begining was the word and the word was ..." and then continues to tell us about the creation of earth and animals etc and then adam and eve and the tree of knowledge etc...is it similar or the same or completly different?
Is this true? Anyone know? I have never read it....would be interesting to see...
ETA: sorry if anyone has answered these and I've missed it, this thread is getting pretty long lol.
