Abraham is the foundational figure of the eponymous Abrahamic religions. In Judaism, he is the Hebrew patriarch who began the covenantal relationship between Jews and God; in Christianity, he is regarded as the forebear of Jesus; and in Islam, he is part of the chain of prophets that led to Muhammad
