إبراهيم والتوحيد

نص قرآني / حديث شريف

Ibrahim (Abraham) searched for the truth and refused to worship idols, even those worshipped by his father and his people. He broke their idols, and they threw him into a great fire. Allah said: "O fire, be coolness and safety for Ibrahim" (21:69).

Allah tested him many times: leaving his wife Hajar and his son Isma'il in the valley of Makkah, and the command to sacrifice his son. When both submitted, Allah replaced the sacrifice with a ram (37:102-107). This is why we sacrifice at Eid al-Adha.
