When Allah tested Prophet Abraham faith and loyalty by asking Prophet abraham to sacrifice Ishmael, Ishmael consented himself to be sacrificed.He even give a morale support to Prophet Abraha ...
Well, first of all, there is absolutely no evidence to say that Ismail was the one who was to eb sacrifiuced by abraham.
Even if he was, that in no way showed he was prophetic. |

Abraham had two sons: Ishmael and Isaac. According to Islam both were prophets. Then why descendants of Isaac were chosen first, despite Isaac was a youngest son? Why descendants of Ishmael became pagans? Why Ishmael was kicked to desert by Abraham? .
You must be mixing too much with Truth to the extent you even write like him. You are right in saying that Islam accepts both as prophets. And why? Because Islam is not biased like the Bible. Morover pecisely because of that I have lost faith in the Bible as being truthful because how can you change or deny the right of brith of a first born? Don't you find it strange in that Ishmael being of true first-born is being sidelined by Isaac who was second-born? How would you feel if you being firstborn were denied that right by your younger brother? How would you feel Nick? Tell me.

The Bible records Ishmael as the firstborn of Abramn and yet you sick people have the cheek to say that Isaac is firstborn. Whoever believes that Isaac is the true first born should be seeking refuge in mental assylums. Hahahaha that includes famously you and Nick. Cheers guys.

The Quran merely claims he was a prophet, it does not in any way show how he was propehtic.

Not all servants of God were prophets and not all servants of God have to be prophetic as well.
Besides, there are no records to back up the Quran's claim that Ishmael was teh child that was to be sacrificed by Abraham.
And here's the contradiction.
If Ishmael was indeed the favoured son who was prophetic and to be sacrificed, why then did allah allow his descendenst to reject God and be pagans? Raising up teh descendts of Isaac instead?
