Proof of the Torah

I would also beg to differ with the OP.

"Also archeology shows that some events in the Torah probably where partially based on fact and others where not."
Did Torah never claimed that it was a text-book of science? or a text-book of history? Please

To add to the above:

Is there proof that any event that is claimed to have happened in the times of Torah, by the eulogizers of science ( not claimed by science) in the times of Torah having actually happened?

The OP or those supporting OP's stance, in the first place to reflect on the above, please.
Others also not forbidden to comment, however. Please
Regards

The scientific method did not exist yet.

So how do Muslims view the story of Jacob and Esau?

Sorry for my late reply!
The Quran mentions Abraham,Ishmael,Jacob,Isaac,the twelve tribes, the story of Jacob's son Joseph but it doesn't mention Esau. Esau is mentioned in the Qisas al anbiyaa (stories of the prophets)written by Muslim historians. Most of what we know about the story of Jacob and Esau is taken from the Israliyat. Israliyat is the body of narratives originating from Jewish and Christian traditions.

Israliyat wiki page:
Isra'iliyyat - Wikipedia

Story of Jacob and Esau:
Story of Ya'qub (Jacob), The - SunnahOnline.com

Story of Prophet Jacob - The Religion of Islam
