Settling Of Ismael AS In Mecca By Ibrahim AS
Islamic traditions cite the sacrificial place as Makkah. Biblical tradition cites it at Mount Moriah (Jerusalem). Pls see Genesis 22:2. The distance between Beersheba to Makkah is approx 1200 km, while to Jerusalem it is 60/70 km. Quran does not cite the exact place where Prophet Abraham PBUH attempted sacrifice. Please see 37:110-107. Hence, it is a debatable topic. Both biblical and Islamic sources cannot be counted as conclusive evidence. Given the remoteness of Makkah and long distance from southern Canaan/Beersheba, Mount Moriah seems a more likely places where Abraham offered sacrifice.
