Philistine 1

...[T]he question should be asked, “Who is an Arab?” It is generally believed that the Arab world has its roots in the union of Abraham and Hagar, the Egyptian maid of Sarah, Abraham’s wife. This is only true to a point. There are numbers of nations described today as “Arab” that are not really Arab at all. The word    “Arab” means “Bedouin” or “nomad,” and the name was given to those who inhabited the Arabian peninsula and the Syrian Desert.

Abraham himself came from Chaldea, known today as Iraq. Iran is not Arab and neither is its language Arabic. Iran is ancient Persia; Islam is her only common denominator with the Arab nations. The founding father of Egypt, Mizraim (“Mizraim” is Hebrew for Egypt—the leader of the so called “Arab” nations), was a grandson of Noah as were the fathers of Libya, Canaan and Ethiopia (Genesis:10:6And the sons of Ham; Cush, and Mizraim, and Phut, and Canaan.
See All...). Obviously, if Ishmael, the son of Abraham, had an Egyptian mother, he is not responsible for fathering the nation.
