The Arabs are the descendants from Ishmael. Hagar gave birth to Ishmael. Abraham and Sarah were very old and she decided to allow her husband to sleep with Hagar, the Egyptian maid (Genesis 16:2). Hagar conceived.

Ishmael was 13 years old when he was circumcised, so the Muslim followed this practice as it was. Abraham was 86 years old when Ishmael was born and Abraham himself was circumcised together with Ishmael when Abraham was 99 years old ( Genesis 17:24).

Later, Sarah gave birth to Isaac when she was 85 years old and Abraham was 100 years old. Isaac was circumcised on the 8th day old (Genesis 21:4) and the practise was followed as it was.

The LORD blessed Ishmael as mentioned in Genesis 21:18 which stated "I will make him into a great nation".
Ishmael cried as his mother was wandering in the desert, without water, Hagar said "I can not watch the boy die" and began to sob (Genesis 21:16).

The LORD opened her eyes and she saw the water and she collected the water and gave the boy a drink.

The prayer from Ishmael was effective, crying for his life...like some of us.

Ishmael and her mother Hagar was chased out/sent away by Abraham and Sarah because ishmael was having conflict with Isaac, the father of Jacob/Israel.

Ironic the Arabs like the US considering that US has killed so many Arabs over the years.

It's ironic that Arabs prefer the United States, given how many people Americans have slain who were Arabs. https://snowrider3d.com
