Say (O Muslims), "We believe in Allah and that which has been sent down to us and that which has been sent down to Ibrahim (Abraham), Ismail (Ishmael), Ishaque (Isaac), Yaqoob (Jacob), and to Al-Asbat (the twelve sons of Yaqoob (Jacob)), and that which has been given to Moosa (Moses) and Iesa (jesus), and that which has been given to the Prophets from their Lord. We make no distinction between any of them, and to Him we have submitted (in Islam)."

No it isn't in any way.
The Qur'aan is here because the Bible failed to teach "submission to the will of God".
The Bible can't even tell straight stories:
Abraham had two sons 1st Ismael 2nd Isaac,
Abraham took his first born Isaac for sacrifice.
Ismael was 12 or 13 years older that Isaac then how could Isaac be the first born.

No, though Abraham (Ibrahim) is recognised as a prophet, as is Jesus.
Islam is more about Mohammed being the last prophet who directly delivered God's words/instructions, that's why there's only one Koran, but many different Bibles.

old testament i don't know what it says at all
the thing is all religions that came before Islam said almost one thing worship god and love each other as islam
any similarities you might see in any of the holy books it's because of all religions are meant to be blocks of a great palace and Islam was the last block
therefore
i agree to certin point

than what? christianity?
islam is somewhat based on judeo-christian principles, and it has the same god. muslims (are supposed to) respect jews and christians as "people of the book." i'm not sure what you're asking.
abraham is indeed recognized as a prophet, and i wouldn't be surprised if some of his teachings worked their way into the koran, but i don't know how much significance that holds.
so sure, i agree.

God has emphasized in many verses of the Qur’an that He did not create us without purpose. He said: “What! Do you think that I created you simply in jest? And that you would not be returned to Me?” (23:115) He also said: “What! Does man think that he will be left to roam at his will?” (75:36) In addition, He said: “Do people think that they will be left to say: “We believe,” and they will not be held accountable?” (29:2)
Indeed, God Has created human beings for a purpose and with a purpose: TO WORSHIP HIM ALONE (Monotheism). He said: “I have not created the Jinn and humankind except only to worship Me. I don't require provision or feeding from them. Surely Allah is the All-provider, the Possessor of all strength, the Firm.” (51:56-58) In fact, all prophets told their people to worship God alone (Monotheism) and shun worshipping His creation (Paganism). God said: “I assuredly sent among every people a messenger with the command: Worship Allah and avoid worshipping false gods.” (16:36)
Prophet Abraham, for example, believed in One God, who had no partner. Anyone who holds a different understanding of God than this has contradicted the religion of Abraham and follows falsehood. God says in the Qur’an: “Those who reject the religion of Abraham make fools of themselves.” (2:130)
Prophet Jesus was reported in the Gospels to have said: “It is written: ‘Worship the Lord your God and serve Him only’.” (Luke 4:8)
Prophet Jacob also said (in the Qur'an) to his people: “Indeed, those which you worship besides Allah are only names that you and your forefathers have established, for which Allah has sent down no authority. The command belongs only to Allah. He has commanded that you worship none but Him. That is the right religion, but most people do not understand.” (12:40)

Yes I agree.
Any teachings that promotes "doing things" as a way to get "close" to God are missing the whole point of Jesus' death/sacrifice on the cross.
