أَمۡ يَحۡسُدُونَ ٱلنَّاسَ عَلَىٰ مَآ ءَاتَىٰهُمُ ٱللَّهُ مِن فَضۡلِهِۦۖ فَقَدۡ ءَاتَيۡنَآ ءَالَ إِبۡرَٰهِيمَ ٱلۡكِتَٰبَ وَٱلۡحِكۡمَةَ وَءَاتَيۡنَٰهُم مُّلۡكًا عَظِيمٗا

54. Or do they envy [189] the people for what Allah has given them out of His Bounty [190]? But We have already given the family of Ibrahim the Book and wisdom [191] and conferred upon them a great kingdom [192].

Surah Name : An-Nisa   Surah Number : 4   Ayat Number: 54

وَمَنۡ أَحۡسَنُ دِينٗا مِّمَّنۡ أَسۡلَمَ وَجۡهَهُۥ لِلَّهِ وَهُوَ مُحۡسِنٞ وَٱتَّبَعَ مِلَّةَ إِبۡرَٰهِيمَ حَنِيفٗاۗ وَٱتَّخَذَ ٱللَّهُ إِبۡرَٰهِيمَ خَلِيلٗا

125. And who is better in religion than the one who submits his face (entire being) to Allah [373], while being a doer of good [374], and follows the religion of Ebrahim, who was upright (and separate from every falsehood) [375]. And Allah took Ebrahim as His intimate friend [376].

Surah Name : An-Nisa   Surah Number : 4   Ayat Number: 125

۞إِنَّآ أَوۡحَيۡنَآ إِلَيۡكَ كَمَآ أَوۡحَيۡنَآ إِلَىٰ نُوحٖ وَٱلنَّبِيِّـۧنَ مِنۢ بَعۡدِهِۦۚ وَأَوۡحَيۡنَآ إِلَىٰٓ إِبۡرَٰهِيمَ وَإِسۡمَٰعِيلَ وَإِسۡحَٰقَ وَيَعۡقُوبَ وَٱلۡأَسۡبَاطِ وَعِيسَىٰ وَأَيُّوبَ وَيُونُسَ وَهَٰرُونَ وَسُلَيۡمَٰنَۚ وَءَاتَيۡنَا دَاوُۥدَ زَبُورٗا

163. Indeed, We have revealed to you (O Beloved Prophet) such a revelation [466] as We revealed to Nuh and the Prophets after him [467]. And then We sent revelations to Ebrahim and Ismail and Ishaq and Yaqub and his children [468], and to Isa and Ayub and Yunus and Harun and Sulaiman, and We gave to Dawood the Book (Zaboor).

Surah Name : An-Nisa   Surah Number : 4   Ayat Number: 163

۞وَإِذِ ٱبۡتَلَىٰٓ إِبۡرَٰهِـۧمَ رَبُّهُۥ بِكَلِمَٰتٖ فَأَتَمَّهُنَّۖ قَالَ إِنِّي جَاعِلُكَ لِلنَّاسِ إِمَامٗاۖ قَالَ وَمِن ذُرِّيَّتِيۖ قَالَ لَا يَنَالُ عَهۡدِي ٱلظَّـٰلِمِينَ

124. And when his Lord tested Ibrahim with certain commands [248], and he fulfilled them, He (Allah) said, "Indeed, I will appoint you as a leader [249] for all the people." Ibrahim requested, "And from my offspring as well?" He (Allah) replied, "My covenant does not extend to the unjust [250]."

Surah Name : Al-Baqarah   Surah Number : 2   Ayat Number: 124

وَإِذۡ جَعَلۡنَا ٱلۡبَيۡتَ مَثَابَةٗ لِّلنَّاسِ وَأَمۡنٗا وَٱتَّخِذُواْ مِن مَّقَامِ إِبۡرَٰهِـۧمَ مُصَلّٗىۖ وَعَهِدۡنَآ إِلَىٰٓ إِبۡرَٰهِـۧمَ وَإِسۡمَٰعِيلَ أَن طَهِّرَا بَيۡتِيَ لِلطَّآئِفِينَ وَٱلۡعَٰكِفِينَ وَٱلرُّكَّعِ ٱلسُّجُودِ

125. And [recall] when We made the House (Ka'bah) a place of return and security [251] for the people, and designated the standing place [252] of Ibrahim as a site for prayer. And We enjoined upon Ibrahim and Ismail: "Purify [253] My House for those who perform Tawaaf, those who stay there for devotion, and those who bow and prostrate in prayer [254]."

Surah Name : Al-Baqarah   Surah Number : 2   Ayat Number: 125

وَإِذۡ قَالَ إِبۡرَٰهِـۧمُ رَبِّ ٱجۡعَلۡ هَٰذَا بَلَدًا ءَامِنٗا وَٱرۡزُقۡ أَهۡلَهُۥ مِنَ ٱلثَّمَرَٰتِ مَنۡ ءَامَنَ مِنۡهُم بِٱللَّهِ وَٱلۡيَوۡمِ ٱلۡأٓخِرِۚ قَالَ وَمَن كَفَرَ فَأُمَتِّعُهُۥ قَلِيلٗا ثُمَّ أَضۡطَرُّهُۥٓ إِلَىٰ عَذَابِ ٱلنَّارِۖ وَبِئۡسَ ٱلۡمَصِيرُ

126. And [recall] when Ibrahim prayed: "O my Lord! Make this city a place of peace [255] and provide its people with fruits—those of them who believe in Allah and the Last Day." He (Allah) said: "And whoever disbelieves, I will grant him [256] enjoyment for a little while, then I will compel him to the punishment of the Fire, and wretched is that destination."

Surah Name : Al-Baqarah   Surah Number : 2   Ayat Number: 126

وَإِذۡ يَرۡفَعُ إِبۡرَٰهِـۧمُ ٱلۡقَوَاعِدَ مِنَ ٱلۡبَيۡتِ وَإِسۡمَٰعِيلُ رَبَّنَا تَقَبَّلۡ مِنَّآۖ إِنَّكَ أَنتَ ٱلسَّمِيعُ ٱلۡعَلِيمُ

127. And [recall] when Ibrahim was raising the foundations [257] of the House (Ka'bah) along with Ismail, (praying): "O our Lord! Accept this from us. Indeed, You are the All-Hearing, the All-Knowing [258]."

Surah Name : Al-Baqarah   Surah Number : 2   Ayat Number: 127

وَوَصَّىٰ بِهَآ إِبۡرَٰهِـۧمُ بَنِيهِ وَيَعۡقُوبُ يَٰبَنِيَّ إِنَّ ٱللَّهَ ٱصۡطَفَىٰ لَكُمُ ٱلدِّينَ فَلَا تَمُوتُنَّ إِلَّا وَأَنتُم مُّسۡلِمُونَ

132.And Ibrahim instructed his sons, and so did Yaqub, saying: "O my sons! Indeed, Allah has chosen for you the religion, so do not die except as Muslims" [265].

Surah Name : Al-Baqarah   Surah Number : 2   Ayat Number: 132

أَمۡ كُنتُمۡ شُهَدَآءَ إِذۡ حَضَرَ يَعۡقُوبَ ٱلۡمَوۡتُ إِذۡ قَالَ لِبَنِيهِ مَا تَعۡبُدُونَ مِنۢ بَعۡدِيۖ قَالُواْ نَعۡبُدُ إِلَٰهَكَ وَإِلَٰهَ ءَابَآئِكَ إِبۡرَٰهِـۧمَ وَإِسۡمَٰعِيلَ وَإِسۡحَٰقَ إِلَٰهٗا وَٰحِدٗا وَنَحۡنُ لَهُۥ مُسۡلِمُونَ

133. Were you present when death came to Yaqub [266] and he asked his sons, "What will you worship after me?" They replied, "We will worship your God and the God of your forefathers, Ibrahim, Ismail, and Ishaq—One God [267], and to Him we submit."

Surah Name : Al-Baqarah   Surah Number : 2   Ayat Number: 133

وَقَالُواْ كُونُواْ هُودًا أَوۡ نَصَٰرَىٰ تَهۡتَدُواْۗ قُلۡ بَلۡ مِلَّةَ إِبۡرَٰهِـۧمَ حَنِيفٗاۖ وَمَا كَانَ مِنَ ٱلۡمُشۡرِكِينَ

135. And they (the people of the Book) say, "Be Yahud or Nasara, and you will be guided." Say (O Muhammad): "Rather, we follow the religion of Ibrahim, inclining toward truth [269], and he was not among the polytheists [270]."

Surah Name : Al-Baqarah   Surah Number : 2   Ayat Number: 135

قُولُوٓاْ ءَامَنَّا بِٱللَّهِ وَمَآ أُنزِلَ إِلَيۡنَا وَمَآ أُنزِلَ إِلَىٰٓ إِبۡرَٰهِـۧمَ وَإِسۡمَٰعِيلَ وَإِسۡحَٰقَ وَيَعۡقُوبَ وَٱلۡأَسۡبَاطِ وَمَآ أُوتِيَ مُوسَىٰ وَعِيسَىٰ وَمَآ أُوتِيَ ٱلنَّبِيُّونَ مِن رَّبِّهِمۡ لَا نُفَرِّقُ بَيۡنَ أَحَدٖ مِّنۡهُمۡ وَنَحۡنُ لَهُۥ مُسۡلِمُونَ

136.Say (O Muslims): "We believe in Allah and what has been revealed to us, and what was revealed to Ibrahim, Ismail, Ishaaq [271], Yaqub, and the descendants [272], and what was granted to Musa and Isa, and what was given to the other Prophets [273] from their Lord. We make no distinction in faith [274] between any of them, and we have submitted to Him."

Surah Name : Al-Baqarah   Surah Number : 2   Ayat Number: 136

أَمۡ تَقُولُونَ إِنَّ إِبۡرَٰهِـۧمَ وَإِسۡمَٰعِيلَ وَإِسۡحَٰقَ وَيَعۡقُوبَ وَٱلۡأَسۡبَاطَ كَانُواْ هُودًا أَوۡ نَصَٰرَىٰۗ قُلۡ ءَأَنتُمۡ أَعۡلَمُ أَمِ ٱللَّهُۗ وَمَنۡ أَظۡلَمُ مِمَّن كَتَمَ شَهَٰدَةً عِندَهُۥ مِنَ ٱللَّهِۗ وَمَا ٱللَّهُ بِغَٰفِلٍ عَمَّا تَعۡمَلُونَ

140. Or do you claim that Ebrahim, Ismail, Ishaaq, Yaqub, and the descendants were Yahud or Nasara? Say (O Muhammad): "Are you more knowledgeable, or is Allah? And who is more unjust than the one who conceals a testimony he has from Allah? Indeed, Allah is not unaware of what you do."

Surah Name : Al-Baqarah   Surah Number : 2   Ayat Number: 140

أَلَمۡ تَرَ إِلَى ٱلَّذِي حَآجَّ إِبۡرَٰهِـۧمَ فِي رَبِّهِۦٓ أَنۡ ءَاتَىٰهُ ٱللَّهُ ٱلۡمُلۡكَ إِذۡ قَالَ إِبۡرَٰهِـۧمُ رَبِّيَ ٱلَّذِي يُحۡيِۦ وَيُمِيتُ قَالَ أَنَا۠ أُحۡيِۦ وَأُمِيتُۖ قَالَ إِبۡرَٰهِـۧمُ فَإِنَّ ٱللَّهَ يَأۡتِي بِٱلشَّمۡسِ مِنَ ٱلۡمَشۡرِقِ فَأۡتِ بِهَا مِنَ ٱلۡمَغۡرِبِ فَبُهِتَ ٱلَّذِي كَفَرَۗ وَٱللَّهُ لَا يَهۡدِي ٱلۡقَوۡمَ ٱلظَّـٰلِمِينَ

258. (O Beloved Prophet) Did you not see the one who argued [665] with Ibrahim about his Lord, merely because Allah had granted him kingship? When Ibrahim said: "My Lord is the One who gives life and causes death," he (Namrood) replied: "I give life and cause death" [666]. Ibrahim said: "Indeed, Allah brings the sun from the east [667]; so bring it from the west." Then the disbeliever was confounded [668]. And Allah does not guide the unjust people.

Surah Name : Al-Baqarah   Surah Number : 2   Ayat Number: 258

وَإِذۡ قَالَ إِبۡرَٰهِـۧمُ رَبِّ أَرِنِي كَيۡفَ تُحۡيِ ٱلۡمَوۡتَىٰۖ قَالَ أَوَلَمۡ تُؤۡمِنۖ قَالَ بَلَىٰ وَلَٰكِن لِّيَطۡمَئِنَّ قَلۡبِيۖ قَالَ فَخُذۡ أَرۡبَعَةٗ مِّنَ ٱلطَّيۡرِ فَصُرۡهُنَّ إِلَيۡكَ ثُمَّ ٱجۡعَلۡ عَلَىٰ كُلِّ جَبَلٖ مِّنۡهُنَّ جُزۡءٗا ثُمَّ ٱدۡعُهُنَّ يَأۡتِينَكَ سَعۡيٗاۚ وَٱعۡلَمۡ أَنَّ ٱللَّهَ عَزِيزٌ حَكِيمٞ

260.And when Ebrahim [677] said: "O my Lord! Show me how You give life to the dead." He (Allah) said: "Do you not believe so?" He said: "Yes, but I like that my heart may be satisfied" [678]. He said: "Take four birds and make them familiar [679] to you. Then put a part of each of them (their flesh) on every hilltop. Thereafter call them [680]. They will come to you in haste [681]. And know that Allah is All-Powerful, All-Wise [682]."
