Prophet Ibrahims desire to see Allah #motivation #quran #shorts
Prophet Ibrahim (Abraham) is an important figure in Islam, seen as the father of the Arab people as well as the Jewish people
From a young age, he had problems trying to understand and discover God, and he was restless, knowing that perhaps the Pagan environment which he was in did not have the answers
As he grew older, he contemplated the natural world and realized that there must be only One God He was chosen as a Prophet and dedicated himself to the worship of One God, Allah
Prophet Ibrahim wanted to understand better and see with his own eyes how Allah brings the dead to life
He asked Allah to show him how He revives the dead
It isn't strange that Allah shows prophets miracles to strengthen their faith. After all, they go through the biggest troubles, so they need the strongest faith to bear the tests
In a dream, Prophet Ibrahim was instructed to sacrifice his son Ismail to Allah. Ibrahim told Ismail about the dream, and both agreed to submit to the will of God. Ismail lay prostrate with his forehead touching the ground, while his father laid a sharp knife upon his neck
Ibrahim had a specific allocation given to him by God, which is that from his progeny will be all the prophets and from them - for Muslims - comes Muhammad
. Ibrahim now had a brand new mission – to call his people to the Truth and help them accept Allah as their one true God. First, he turned to his father who he loved so dearly. Ibrahim said: “O Father! Why do you worship that which doesn't hear, doesn't see, and cannot avail you in anything? O father, I have got knowledge which you have not, so follow me. I will guide you to a straight path.” [Quran 19:42-48] Angrily, his father rejected Ibrahim’s request and told his son to get out of his sight. Undeterred, Ibrahim decided to channel his efforts towards bringing the people of his town towards the message of Allah, but they rejected his words and threatened him with violence. Ibrahim was given inspiration to adopt a different approach to change the hearts
