The history of the messengers: Abraham

[englishelm11]

Prophet Abraham was indeed a monotheistic prophet and this was manifested in all his conduct. Allah, therefore, says the following when describing him: {Verily, Ibrâhim (Abraham) was an Ummah (a leader having all the good righteous qualities), or a nation, obedient to Allâh, Hanifa (i.e. to worship none but Allâh), and he was not one of those who were Al-Mushrikûn (polytheists, idolaters, disbelievers in the Oneness of Allâh, and those who joined partners with Allâh).}(An-Nahl:120)
He (pbuh) grew up among polytheists. Even his father was one of the idolaters, and carved and served the idols. Abraham argued with his father and people: {And (remember) when Ibrâhim (Abraham) said to his father Azar: “Do you take idols as âlihâ (gods)? Verily, I see you and your people in manifest error.”}(Al-An’âm:74) to know more visit our site and donot hesitate.

In the following verses Allah subhanahu wa taaala tells us about Ibrahim alaihi alsalam:

وَاتْلُ عَلَيْهِمْ نَبَأَ إِبْرَاهِيمَ ( 69 )
And recite to them the news of Abraham,
إِذْ قَالَ لِأَبِيهِ وَقَوْمِهِ مَا تَعْبُدُونَ ( 70 )
When he said to his father and his people, "What do you worship?"
قَالُوا نَعْبُدُ أَصْنَامًا فَنَظَلُّ لَهَا عَاكِفِينَ ( 71 )
They said, "We worship idols and remain to them devoted."
قَالَ هَلْ يَسْمَعُونَكُمْ إِذْ تَدْعُونَ ( 72 )
He said, "Do they hear you when you supplicate?
أَوْ يَنفَعُونَكُمْ أَوْ يَضُرُّونَ ( 73 )
Or do they benefit you, or do they harm?"
قَالُوا بَلْ وَجَدْنَا آبَاءَنَا كَذَٰلِكَ يَفْعَلُونَ ( 74 )
They said, "But we found our fathers doing thus."
قَالَ أَفَرَأَيْتُم مَّا كُنتُمْ تَعْبُدُونَ ( 75 )
He said, "Then do you see what you have been worshipping,
أَنتُمْ وَآبَاؤُكُمُ الْأَقْدَمُونَ ( 76 )
You and your ancient forefathers?
فَإِنَّهُمْ عَدُوٌّ لِّي إِلَّا رَبَّ الْعَالَمِينَ ( 77 )
Indeed, they are enemies to me, except the Lord of the worlds,
الَّذِي خَلَقَنِي فَهُوَ يَهْدِينِ ( 78 )
Who created me, and He [it is who] guides me.
وَالَّذِي هُوَ يُطْعِمُنِي وَيَسْقِينِ ( 79 )
And it is He who feeds me and gives me drink.
وَإِذَا مَرِضْتُ فَهُوَ يَشْفِينِ ( 80 )
And when I am ill, it is He who cures me
وَالَّذِي يُمِيتُنِي ثُمَّ يُحْيِينِ ( 81 )
And who will cause me to die and then bring me to life
وَالَّذِي أَطْمَعُ أَن يَغْفِرَ لِي خَطِيئَتِي يَوْمَ الدِّينِ ( 82 )
And who I aspire that He will forgive me my sin on the Day of Recompense."
