The Social Background of prophet Abraham Peace be upon him in light of the Quran, Bible, and Modern Archaeological Finding

الملخص

Prophet Abraham is the father of the three Abrahamic faiths: Judaism,
Christianity, and Islam. His unshakable devotion and obedience to God have
earned him respect from all three religions. The life of Prophet Abraham is
richly documented in sacred texts. However, due to a lack of archaeological
evidence, many contemporary philosophers view the figure of Abraham (a.s) as
mythology. However, there are no in-depth descriptions of Abraham's life in
ancient sources. Still, Modern archaeology has many findings which confirm the
historicity of this Semitic figure and its society, even his name. Excavations in
Egypt, Iraq, Palestine, and Syria have revealed artifacts, inscriptions, and other
things that correspond to Abraham's social background described in the Bible
and Quran.
This article is an attempt to presents social background of Prophet Abraham (as)
as described in the Quran and Bible. In order to prove that Abraham was a real
person, the research will also show that how these facts can be confirmed by
modern archaeology.
