Who is Ishmael and why is he significant to Islam?

Ishmael was the son of Abraham and Hagar (an Egyptian princess). Since G0d made Isaac the heir of Abraham and the next link in the chain that led to Judaism, He commanded Abraham to listen to his wife (Sarah) and send Ishmael away. This was a formal act that dealt with the inheritance and they did maintain contact throughout the years. For example, Ishmael attended and helped with Abraham's funeral, while acknowledging that Isaac was his heir. G0d promised Abraham that Ishmael would be the progenitor of a people that would have the traits that described him. These were the Arabs. When Mohammad invented Islam, he changed some of the Bible stories to involve Ishmael and pretended that he was a full prophet.

Did Islam start with Hagar's son Ishmael?

No. The Muslim perspective is that Islam started with Adam, the first man, because Islam is the natural state of a person until he is corrupted by other religions/beliefs/atheism. The Historical perspective is that the first Muslim was Mohammed since it is the Qur'an which forms the basis for Muslim religious practice. Since Adam comes before Ishmael and Mohammed comes after Ishmael, nobody claims Ishmael started Islam. However, Ishmael is commonly cited as being the progenitor of the Arab peoples and the link that Muslims have to Abraham.
