ACCORDING to biblical tradition, the Hebrews are peoples descended from Shem, one of Noah's sons, through Eber, the eponymous ancestor, and Abraham. Gen. 7:22 f., reports that the flood destroyed all life except that in Noah's ark; consequently, the whole human family descended from Noah and his sons: Japheth, Ham and Shem. As yet, not all of the names of eponymous ancestors in the family lines can be identified,1 but some probabilities are listed in Chart 6. From Shem, through Arpachshad and Shelah came Eber, the eponymous ancestor of the Hebrews, and from his descendants through Peleg, Reu, Sereg and Nahor came Terah, the father of Abram and his brothers Nahor and Haran. It becomes clear that if "Hebrews" are descendants of Eber, then others besides those of Abraham's line would be included (see Gen. 10:25-27).

This is due to the fact that Muslims believe that we (Humanity) are in the progress of learning and that we will come to understand the truth one day. They would use the idea of the Geocentric and Heliocentric universe. The Geocentric theory was that everything in the solar system was orbiting the Earth and this was believed to be scientific truth among all of humankind. However, as time passed, we discovered that the universe is in fact a heliocentric mode meaning that everything in the solar system orbits the sun. Currently, scientists have found out that even the heliocentric model is not correct as their seems to be two centres to this solar system.
