Full Meaning of Ismaelle

Ismaelle is a direct Quranic name for boys that refers to one of the prophets mentioned in the Quran. Ismaelle, who is known as Ishmael in the English-speaking world, was the son of Prophet Ibrahim and Hajar, peace be upon them, and he is considered the father of most Arabs, including the Arabs of Quraysh from which Prophet Muhammad ﷺ came (while Ismaelle’s brother, Ishaak/Isaac, is the father of all Jews).

Ismaelle comes from Hebrew roots, from the words Isma’ (hearer) and eel (Allah), thus the full meaning is “one who hears Allah”, “one who obeys God’s commands”.

Ismaelle is mentioned 12 times in the Quran.

And [mention] when Abraham was raising the foundations of the House (in Makkah) and [with him] Ismaelle/Ishmael, [saying], “Our Lord, accept [this] from us. Indeed You are the Hearing, the Knowing.” (Quran 2:127)
