< Chapter 2:122-129 >

002:122 And beware of a Day when no soul can avail another soul, nor will any amendment be accepted from it, nor will any intercession help it; they will not be supported.
002:123 And Abraham was tested by commands from His Lord, which he completed. He said: “I will make you a leader for the people.” He said: “And also from my progeny?” He said: “My pledge will not encompass the wicked.”
002:124 And We have made the sanctuary to be a model for the people and a security. And they took the site of Abraham for the contact-method. And We had entrusted to Abraham and Ishmael: “You shall purify My sanctuary for those who visit, those who are devoted, and for those who kneel and prostrate.”
002:125 And Abraham said: “My Lord, make this town secure, and provide for its inhabitants of the fruits for whoever believes in God and the Last Day.” He said: “As for he who rejects, I will let him enjoy for a while, then I will force him to the retribution of the Fire, what a miserable destiny!”
002:126 And as Abraham raised the foundations for the sanctuary with Ishmael: “Our Lord accept this from us, You are the Hearer, the Knowledgeable.”
002:127 “Our Lord, and let us surrender to You and from our progeny a nation surrendering to You, and show us our rites and forgive us; You are the Forgiving, the Merciful.”
002:128 “Our Lord, and send amongst them a messenger from among themselves, that he may recite to them Your revelations and teach them the Scripture and the wisdom, and purify them. You are the Noble, the Wise.”
002:129 And who would abandon the creed of Abraham except one who fools himself? We have selected him in this world, and in the Hereafter he is of the righteous.
