The Prophet Abraham (pbuh)




                        Signs from the Story of the Prophet Abraham
                                  (pbuh) for the Present Day

                        In the verse, "Fire, be coolness and peace for Abraham" (Surat
                   al-Anbiya: 69), Allah reveals that the fire did not harm the Prophet
                   Abraham (pbuh). As a result, the pagans' snares were neutralized
                   and they could not harm him. This verse also contains an important
                   indication for the present day. (Allah knows the truth.)
                        As we know, all kinds of fabrics and materials are now pro-
                   duced by high technology. Among them are fire-proof clothing
                   and vehicles. For instance, fire-resistant clothes protect their wear-
                   ers against fire, flames, and other effects of burning, for they catch
                   fire less easily, burn slower, and put themselves out when the
                   flame or the fire's source is removed. Such clothing gives people
                   more time to remove their burning clothes or extinguish the
                   blames.
                        Fabrics made from glass, aramid, novoloid, sulphur, and
                   saran fibers do not catch fire and resist very high temperatures.
                   These fabrics are the result of different fibers joined together,
                   through a series of tests, to protect the wearer against fire. Shirts,
                   pants, jackets, sweaters, shoes, gloves, socks, and headgear de-
                   signed from such fire-resistant materials are used by workers in
                   oil refineries, chemical substance producing plants, electricity and
                   natural gas facilities, steel and aluminum factories, welding
                   plants, the air and space industry, the construction industry, and
                   emergency and fire-fighting personnel. (American Firewear

                                         The above verse may be pointing to this
                                        major scientific development, which will
                                                           emerge during the
                                                              End Times, and in-
                                                               dicating the pro-
                                                                duction of these
                                                                fire-resistant
                                                                 fabrics and ma-

                                                                   knows    the
