وَإِبْرَٰهِيمَ ٱلَّذِى وَفَّىٰٓ
Waibr a heema alla th ee waff a
and of Abraham, who to his trust was true:30
  - Mohammad Asad

Cf. 2:124 and the corresponding note [100]. It is obvious that the names of Abraham and Moses are cited here only by way of example, drawing attention to the fact that all through human history God has entrusted His elect, the prophets, with the task of conveying certain unchangeable ethical truths to man.

and of Ibrahim (Abraham) who always kept his word:
  - Muhammad Farooq-i-Azam Malik
and 'that of' Abraham, who 'perfectly' fulfilled 'his covenant'?
  - Mustafa Khattab
And Abraham who paid his debt:
  - Marmaduke Pickthall
And of Abraham who fulfilled his engagements? 5111 5112
  - Abdullah Yusuf Ali

One of the titles of Abraham is Hanif, the True in Faith Cf. xvi. 120, 123.

No original Book of Abraham is now extant. But a book called "The Testament of Abraham" has come down to us, which seems to be a Greek translation of a Hebrew original. See n. 6094 to lxxxvii. 19, where the Books of Moses and Abraham are again mentioned together.
