There is a passage in the Quran which is sometimes read that way.
But about the earlier issue, I think that if you go back far enough we
are "all" related. For example, there is some indication that even
John Kerry is descended from the prophet Muhammad (saaws)... I think
through some distant Persian ancestry. And so he is also descended
from Abraham.
