Original Note:
Important context needed. The holy Quran never mentioned Israel as a state, but rather as a tribe or descendants of prophet Ya'qub(Jacob) who was known as 'Israel'. The holy Bible also mentions 'Israel' as Jacob's name. https://quod.lib.umich.edu/cgi/k/koran/koran-idx?type=simple&q1=Israel&size=Fi https://www.churchofjesuschrist.org/study/ftsoy/2022/03/questions-and-answers/13_why-did-god-change-jacobs-name-to-israel?lang=eng https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jacob_in_Islam#:~:text=Jacob%20and%20Joseph.-,Jacob's%20last%20advice%20to%20his%20people,we%20%CB%B9all%CB%BA%20submit.%E2%80%9D
