Thanks for replying,
now can you please show me the surah in the Quran where it says that Allah (The God) asked Abraham to sacrifice Ismael. Please give me surah where they name Ishmael by his name.
The story is mentioned in Surah number 37 (called : Al Saffat) , and here is the origional text from Quran (in Arabic) :
"فبشرناه بغلام حليم ، فلما بلغ معه السعي قال يا بني إني أرى في المنام أني أذبحك فانظر ماذا ترى قال يا أبت افعل ما تؤمر ستجدني إن شاء الله من الصابرين ، فلما أسلما وتله للجبين ، وناديناه أن يا إبراهيم ، قد صدقت الرؤيا إنا كذلك نجزي المحسنين ،إن هذا لهو البلاء المبين ، وفديناه بذبح عظيم ، وتركنا عليه في الآخرين ، سلام على إبراهيم ، كذلك نجزي المحسنين ، إنه من عبادنا المؤمنين ، وبشرناه بإسحق نبيا من الصالحين " .
Quran mentioned Ismael by name in many places and I can give to you if you want . But in the story where Abraham was asked to sacrifice, Ismael is mentioned as the son of Abraham . But it is clearely indicates that Allah meant Ismael NOT Isaac because in the second line (Aya) Allah says that he told Abraham that he will have another son and mentioned him by name (Isaac) which means clearely that the first was Ismael .
So , indicating Isaac to be another son who WILL COME proves that he didn't exist at that time when the story happened and proves that the son sacrified was Ismael .
This is a brief translation for what is mentioned in the text. If you want me to translate it in details, I am ready to do it.
In Addition, Mohammad mentioned that story and told us that he was Ismael by name . I am also ready to give you those evidences .
