PROPHETS IBRAHEEM & ISMAEEL

"Ibraheem said, "I am going to take refuge with my Rabb, He will surely guide me.  O my Rabb! Grant me a righteous son."  So We gave him the news of a clement son.  When he reached the age to work with him, Ibraheem said to him, "O my son! I have seen a vision that I should offer as a  sacrifice, now tell me what is your view."  He replied, "O my father! Do as you are commanded; you will find me if Allah so wills, of the patient."  And when they both submitted to Allah and Ibraheem laid down his son prostrate upon his forehead for sacrifice, We called out to him, "O Ibraheem stop!  You have fulfilled your vision."  Thus do We reward the righteous.  That was indeed a manifest test.  We ransomed his son for a great sacrifice.  Quran, As-Saffat, 37: 98-107
