83وَإِنَّ مِن شِيعَتِهِۦ لَإِبْرَٰهِيمَ
84إِذْ جَآءَ رَبَّهُۥ بِقَلْبٍ سَلِيمٍ
85إِذْ قَالَ لِأَبِيهِ وَقَوْمِهِۦ مَاذَا تَعْبُدُونَ
86أَئِفْكًا ءَالِهَةً دُونَ ٱللَّهِ تُرِيدُونَ
87فَمَا ظَنُّكُم بِرَبِّ ٱلْعَـٰلَمِينَ
[83-87] And Abraham was the one who followed the way of Noah. When he approached his Lord with a sound heart.44 When he said to his father and his people,45 "What are these things that you worship? Do you seek false gods instead of Allah? What do you think about the Lord of the worlds?"46
44"Approached his Lord": Turned to his Lord sincerely and exclusively; "with a sound heart": with a heart that was free from all kinds of moral evils and weaknesses of faith, free from every trace of unbelief and shirk, doubt and suspicion, from every feeling of disobedience and rebellion, from every crookedness, confusion and complexity, and free from every evil inclination and desire, and a heart that neither cherished any malice and jealousy and ill-will against anyone, nor had any evil intention.
45For further details of this story of the Prophet Abraham, please see Surah Al-An'am: 72-90; Maryam: 41-60; AI-Anbiya: 51-75; Ash-Shu'ara; 69-89; Al-'Ankabut: 16-17, and the E.N's thereof.
46That is, "Why have you formed such a wrong view of Allah? Do you think that the gods that you have yourselves carved out from wood and stone can be like Him, or can be His associates in his attributes and rights? And are you involved in the misunderstanding that you will somehow manage to escape His punishment after you have indulged in such blasphemy ?
