The Prophet Abraham (pbuh)





                       Our Lord further informs us that He has made the Prophet
                  Abraham's (pbuh) family superior to the worlds, supported
                  them with wisdom and the Book, and provided them with con-
                  siderable assets:
                       Allah chose Adam and Noah, as well as the family of
                       Abraham and the family of `Imran, over all other beings.
                       (Surah Al 'Imran: 33)

                       Or do they, in fact, envy other people for the bounty Allah
                       has granted them? We gave the family of Abraham the
                       Book and wisdom, and We gave them an immense king-
                       dom. (Surat an-Nisa: 54)
                       "Those who believe and do not mix up their faith with any
                       wrongdoing, they are the ones who are safe; it is they who
                       are guided." This is the argument We gave to Abraham
                       against his tribe. We raise in rank anyone We will. Your
                       Lord is All-Wise, All-Knowing. (Surat al-An'am: 82-83)

                       And left the later people saying of him: "Peace be upon
                       Abraham." That is how We recompense good-doers. Truly,
                       he was one of Our believing servants. (Surat as-Saffat:
                       108-111)
                       Allah rewarded the Prophet Abraham
                  (pbuh) with a pleasing, guided, and unsul-
