In Surah Saaffat verses 83-109 contrast how Prophet Ibrahim AS was treated by his father and how Ibrahim AS as a father dealt with his son.
The elders are vexed by Ibrahim AS incessant preaching of one God and desire to keep worshiping idols.
This reminds me of generational differences and also generational trauma due to ungodly, ill informed elder-youth relations. In particular, the father - son relationship. Many young Muslim men today have ...See more
