Read Surah Maryam
بِسْمِ اللّٰهِ الرَّحْمٰنِ الرَّحِیْمِ
وَ اذْكُرْ فِی الْكِتٰبِ اِبْرٰهِیْمَ ؕ۬ اِنَّهٗ كَانَ صِدِّیْقًا نَّبِیًّا۴۱
Commemorate Abraham in the Book: He was upright, a prophet.اِذْ قَالَ لِاَبِیْهِ یٰۤاَبَتِ لِمَ تَعْبُدُ مَا لَا یَسْمَعُ وَ لَا یُبْصِرُ وَ لَا یُغْنِیْ عَنْكَ شَیْـًٔا۴۲
Remember, when he said to his father: "O my father, why do you worship that which can neither hear nor see nor even profit you the least?یٰۤاَبَتِ اِنِّیْ قَدْ جَآءَنِیْ مِنَ الْعِلْمِ مَا لَمْ یَاْتِكَ فَاتَّبِعْنِیْۤ اَهْدِكَ صِرَاطًا سَوِیًّا۴۳
O my father, to me has come such knowledge as never came to you. So follow me that I may show you the right path.یٰۤاَبَتِ لَا تَعْبُدِ الشَّیْطٰنَ ؕ اِنَّ الشَّیْطٰنَ كَانَ لِلرَّحْمٰنِ عَصِیًّا۴۴
Why do you worship Satan, O father? Verily Satan was disobedient to Ar-Rahman.یٰۤاَبَتِ اِنِّیْۤ اَخَافُ اَنْ یَّمَسَّكَ عَذَابٌ مِّنَ الرَّحْمٰنِ فَتَكُوْنَ لِلشَّیْطٰنِ وَلِیًّا۴۵
O my father, I fear lest a punishment from Ar-Rahman should befall you, and you should become a friend of the Devil."قَالَ اَرَاغِبٌ اَنْتَ عَنْ اٰلِهَتِیْ یٰۤاِبْرٰهِیْمُ ۚ لَىِٕنْ لَّمْ تَنْتَهِ لَاَرْجُمَنَّكَ وَ اهْجُرْنِیْ مَلِیًّا۴۶
He said: "Are you averse to my gods, O Abraham? If you do not desist, I shall have you stoned to death. So go away for a while from me."قَالَ سَلٰمٌ عَلَیْكَ ۚ سَاَسْتَغْفِرُ لَكَ رَبِّیْ ؕ اِنَّهٗ كَانَ بِیْ حَفِیًّا۴۷
He answered: "Peace be on you. I will seek forgiveness of my Lord for you. He has been gracious to me.وَ اَعْتَزِلُكُمْ وَ مَا تَدْعُوْنَ مِنْ دُوْنِ اللّٰهِ وَ اَدْعُوْا رَبِّیْ ۖؗ عَسٰۤی اَلَّاۤ اَكُوْنَ بِدُعَآءِ رَبِّیْ شَقِیًّا۴۸
I will leave you and those you invoke apart from God, and pray to my Lord. Haply in praying to my Lord I will not be deprived."فَلَمَّا اعْتَزَلَهُمْ وَ مَا یَعْبُدُوْنَ مِنْ دُوْنِ اللّٰهِ ۙ وَهَبْنَا لَهٗۤ اِسْحٰقَ وَ یَعْقُوْبَ ؕ وَ كُلًّا جَعَلْنَا نَبِیًّا۴۹
Thus, when he left them and the (idols) they worshipped, We bestowed on him Isaac and Jacob, and made each of them a prophet,وَ وَهَبْنَا لَهُمْ مِّنْ رَّحْمَتِنَا وَ جَعَلْنَا لَهُمْ لِسَانَ صِدْقٍ عَلِیًّا۠۵۰
And bestowed on them some of Our blessings, and gave them high renown.
