Regarding the Blessed Beauty, He was not born of the line of
Ishmael but was, rather, a descendant of one of the other brothers who had
migrated to Persia and the Afghan territories. For, apart from Isaac and
Ishmael, Abraham had six sons who all moved to Persia and to the Afghan
regions. - ‘Abdu’l-Baha (From a Tablet; ‘Light of the World’)
