Most Muslims are aware
of the fact that Prophet
Muhammad, peace and
blessings be upon him, is
mentioned in the Bible.
However, most Christians are not aware
of this fact and they
would even deny that

contradiction with
Genesis 21:14-21 where
Ishmael was portrayed
as a baby put on the
shoulder of his mother, called lad and child,
when both left Sarah:
"And Abraham rose up early in the morning, and
