According to Jewish and Arab tradition, the Jews descend from Abraham following the line of his son Isaac and the Arabs descend from Abraham following the line of his son Ishmael.

Jews are descended from Isaac (son of Abraham), while Arabs are descended from Ishmael (son of Abraham). See Genesis ch.16, 17 and 21.
