Phel khat chu Abraham nau lutir Ismael le a nu Hagar le an thla pei Arab-hai hluo chu a nih. Anni hin kum 610 AD hnung khan an zawlnei Muhammad inchuktirna Islam sakhuo chu zuiin ram an lak duoi duoi a, Arab ram hrang hrang 18 bakah an sakhuo zuitu an pung tuol tuol a, khawvela sakhuo inthrang hrât tak le a betuhai chengna taphot deuthaw chu ram buoia ngai thei khopa Genesis 25:18-a an chanchin ziektu Mosien a bawkna hi sukdik pei dinga ramtrang ni hielin an inlang.

Chu chu naulutir Ismael le a thlahai chun an pom thei si naw leiin, Abraham thralbea suok ve ve, hnam le sakhuo trobul intrawm ni hai sien khom ui le kel anga thlung kop thei dèr lo an nih.

Chuleiin, Ismael thlahaiin an hnam le an sakhaw trobul an sui pha leh Abraham le a hmei Hagar le an naupa Ismael chanchinah an lut a, anni huongah upa lem le ziding lem nina an hui lut tlat a nih. Anni hril dan chun, Hagar le a naupa Ismael kha Beersheba thlalerah ni loin, tu chena Muslimhai ‘Pathien In’ (Kaabah) ngirna, Makka khawzawla invakvai an ni lem.
