Where does it state that Abraham was a Muslim
He was Hebrew
you got to get it right if your going to push the Islam Religion
Edit:
the Islam religion did not come about until After Judaism

I am Muslim and I can answer this: Abraham and even the first man Adam were Muslims. That is because Islam is not a "new" religion, but Islam is the same religion given to Adam, Moses, Jesus, Muhammad, and all the Prophets sent by God. The Prophets were all were sent by God to mankind telling us the same thing: there is only 1 God and to worship nothing but Him, to believe in the next life, and to do good on this earth...The Torah, The Bible, and The Koran were all sent by the same God. The problems came when people began to re-write the words of the Torah and the Bible, so God sent the last holy book, the Koran as a guide and warning to mankind. The Koran speaks heavily of Moses, Jesus, King David, Soloman and amny Prophets mentioned in the Bible and the Torah. This is because God sent all 3 books. Islam is not a new religion.

Abraham was no Muslim..It is easy to prove Abraham believed in the atonement Abraham worshiped a righteous God that required him to make sacrifice to atone for his sins...The God Abraham worshiped could not simply forgive sin as he was perfect and could not be in agreement with sin....God told Abraham to take Issac and offer him as a sacrifice for his sins...now while carrying the wood to the mountain Issac asked his father where the lamb for the sacrifice was? Abraham told his son God will provide himself a lamb....If Abraham knew that God could not forgive without atonement and he knew that God would provide himself a lamb..why would those who claim to be following the teachings of Abraham not understand the meaning of atonement?....The Muslims use the names of Prophets for credibility yet deny their teachings.

The last of prophets in the order of time was Malachias.
Latin Vulgate
Douay-Rheims Bible
Second Epistle Of Saint Peter
Chapter 2
1 But there were also false prophets among the people, even as there shall be among you lying teachers, who shall bring in sects of perdition, and deny the Lord who bought them: bringing upon themselves swift destruction. 2 And many shall follow their riotousnesses, through whom the way of truth shall be evil spoken of. 3 And through covetousness shall they with feigned words make merchandise of you. Whose judgment now of a long time lingereth not, and their perdition slumbereth not. 4 For if God spared not the angels that sinned, but delivered them, drawn down by infernal ropes to the lower hell, unto torments, to be reserved unto judgment
11 Whereas angels who are greater in strength and power, bring not against themselves a railing judgment. 12 But these men, as irrational beasts, naturally tending to the snare and to destruction, blaspheming those things which they know not, shall perish in their corruption, 13 Receiving the reward of their injustice, counting for a pleasure the delights of a day: stains and spots, sporting themselves to excess, rioting in their feasts with you: 14 Having eyes full of adultery and of sin that ceaseth not: alluring unstable souls, having their heart exercised with covetousness, children of malediction

Because the word Islam means submission to GOD. And anyone who fully submits to GOD is a muslim. So what does that make Prophet Abraham (pbuh)...MUSLIM! What does that make Prophet Jesus (pbuh)....MUSLIM!
And the list goes on. A muslim simply means one who fully submits to GOD....so say it in arabic or say it in english.
