Yes, as did Jesus as well. Well, more accurately, Muslims pray like Muhammad who was told to pray in the manner of Abraham, who is actually mentioned in our prayers.
From the Bible itself,
Mathews 26:39 "He fell forward a little, and fell face downward on the ground, and prayed..."
THat's the only examply I have written out, but its also in Joshua 5:15, 1 Kings 18:42, Numbers 20:6, and Genesis 17:3.

Abraham did not pray like Muslims, the Muslims pray like Abraham. That's why the Muslims prostrate (fall on their faces) to praym, like Abraham did in Genesis and so did Jesus in the New Testament.

No.
Abraham existed first, therefore Muslims pray like Abraham.

no one at present age saw how abraham prayed to GOD.but what i know his heart is right at the sight of GOD.it is not how people pray,it is in the heart of man that GOD sees and understand and give approval.abraham is a friend of GOD!not all people like abraham only GOD knows who are on HIS side.
