there was no word called ISLAM or Muslim in the arab world.They were the descendants of Abraham/Ibrahim until Prof.Mohammad. The children of Ismail have become Muslims & the children of Issac are Jews/Israel.The Egyptians were not Muslims(they worshiped other gods).The Persians also were not Muslims.They were forced to convert to islam just like Aurangazeb did. and the funniest part is there is Children of the same ancestors fight among them selves. The muslims doent want to accept that Jews are their relatives
