A couple thousand years ago in a hospital because Muhammed hit his head and couldn't remember anything about him or his friends. Jesus and Abraham sat in a room and talked about many things. Including who they were, who believed in them, their book, their symbol, and where they went to worship. While they were talking they realized they are a couple things in common as well as things that were different. They realize that everyone who believed in them only believed in them. For example if you were Christian then you believed in Jesus. Jesus was talking, as he was talking he was saying "The people who believe in me are Christians, and they read the Bible.
