The Heritage of Israel is Jewish as Promised by Almighty God in the Holy Bible to Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob

You see, it is that question which has plagued the world since the very beginning that causes humankind in the faulted human logic to ask, ‘how Almighty God could forget about Muslims, the religious people of the Quran' in these modern times? The answer is simple, He has not forgotten the Muslims, nor were they ignored in Biblical prophecy. As has been pointed out by the Biblical perspective, and some Muslim sources, they are of the lineage of Ishmael.

We can read that Almighty God did promise to make a great nation of Ishmael (Genesis 16:6 –it is doubtful that the Hebrews forged this part), but not the nation to which Israel was promised. As is prophetically understood, the children and heirs to Ishmael would become one the nations to be a hindrance to the Jewish people for the Hebrew rebellion to Almighty God at the time of Jesus Christ's first appearance, for it is written that the Gentiles would trod the holy sites. And guess what the Waqf have control over for the moment?

The land is promised to the seed of Abraham through Isaac, and his grand children Jacob (though Esau forsook the birthright), and great grandchildren (the twelve). They are Hebrews, for Abraham is the father of the Hebrews, and they are Jewish, for the heritage is called such after the great grandson Judah. It is therefore promised to the Jews (no matter the remnant percentage - Revelation 7:5-8); the other nations which survive the Revelation's tribulation will be in service to Israel, including any of Ishmael's descendants that may come to recognize Jesus Christ as LORD.
