When we study the life of Ibrahim AS, as related to us by Allah SWT, we find a tender-hearted Prophet who is concerned about one critical issue. How do I get people to abandon false gods, and invite them to the worship of Allah alone?

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.
