According to the Book of Genesis, Hagar^[a] was an Egyptian slave, a handmaiden of Sarah (then known as Sarai),^[2] whom Sarah gave to her own husband Abram (later renamed Abraham) as a wife to bear him a child. Abraham's firstborn son, through Hagar, Ishmael, became the progenitor of the Ishmaelites, generally taken to be the Arabs. Various commentators have connected her to the Hagrites (sons of Agar), perhaps claiming her as their eponymous ancestor.^[3]^[4]^[5]^[6] Hagar is alluded to, although not named, in the Quran, and Islam considers her Abraham's second wife.
