The head of the Hebrew patriarch is revered by Judaism, Christianity and Islam. According to the Old Testament. According to Genesis, at the age of seventy-five, Abraham was called by God to leave Ur and set up a new country in Canaan with his barren wife Sarai and others. God made a Covenant with him, and his descendants will inherit the land and become a great country in the future. Later, Abraham and Hagar, his wife's handmaid, gave birth to a son Ishmael, and Sarah gave birth to her first son Isaac. When God asked Abraham to sacrifice Isaac to test his loyalty, he was ready to obey, but God later became tolerant. In Judaism, Abraham is a model of virtue; In Christianity, he is the father of all believers; In Islam, he is the ancestor of Muhammad and a model of generosity (Sufi).
