Let us look at another situation which many believe is the most difficult situation, the most serious affliction, and the most severe trial that Prophet Ibrahim AS was subjected to, during his mission to calling to Allah.
\nAllah described it as:<\/p>\n
\u0625\u0650\u0646\u0651\u064e \u0647\u064e\u0640\u0670\u0630\u064e\u0627 \u0644\u064e\u0647\u064f\u0648\u064e \u0671\u0644\u0652\u0628\u064e\u0644\u064e\u0640\u0670\u0653\u0624\u064f\u0627\u06df \u0671\u0644\u0652\u0645\u064f\u0628\u0650\u064a\u0646\u064f
\nIndeed, this was the clear trial.<\/p>\n
It was more difficult than facing king Nimrud who was an unjust and oppressive tyrant. Ibrahim AS challenged him with the powerful truth and logic and was indifferent to any torment that he may suffer as a result of this challenge. And it is was easier for him than the day that he was thrown into the fire because he broke the idols that his people worshipped. This situation was the most difficult faced by Ibrahim AS and if the Quran did not narrate this story, one would say that it is fiction:<\/p>\n
\u0641\u064e\u0628\u064e\u0634\u0651\u064e\u0631\u0652\u0646\u064e\u0640\u0670\u0647\u064f \u0628\u0650\u063a\u064f\u0644\u064e\u0640\u0670\u0645\u064d \u062d\u064e\u0644\u0650\u064a\u0645\u064d
\nSo We gave him good tidings of a forbearing boy.

\nAnd when he was old enough to work with him, he said, \u201cO my son, indeed I have seen in a dream that I [must] sacrifice you, so tell me what you think.\u201d He said, \u201cO my father, do as you are commanded. You will find me, if Allah wills, of the steadfast.\u201d<\/p>\n

\nAnd We called out to him: \u201cO Ibrahim! You have fulfilled the vision.\u201d Indeed, We thus reward the doers of good.<\/p>\n
Unleash your imagination and think about this situation. A man who reached an advanced age was blessed with a son who then worked with him and assisted him with the hardships of life. Ibrahim AS\u2019s heart became attached to him, then he saw in a dream that he slaughtered him?! Simply a dream. Jibra`eel AS did not descend commanding him with this grave matter. But in the hadith narrated by Ibn Abbas:<\/p>\n
\u201cthe dreams of Prophets are Divine Inspiration\u201d
\nHe was ordered to slaughter. If it was killing by drowning in the sea, or throwing off a cliff it would have been easier than slaughtering. However, we are talking about Ibrahim AS. Yes, it was an indication, just an indication, not a direct revelation or a direct command, but merely a vision from his Lord. This was enough for Ibrahim AS to respond and comply without complaining and asking Allah why should he sacrifice his only son. And at the same time, he was not annoyed, disturbed or in turmoil when he responded. He responded with acceptance, contentment, reassurance and calm.<\/p>\n
Ibrahim AS is a wonderful and unique model of fully complying with Allah\u2019s command and absolute submission to His decree as indicated in the Quran:<\/p>\n
\u0625\u0650\u0630\u0652 \u0642\u064e\u0627\u0644\u064e \u0644\u064e\u0647\u064f\u06e5 \u0631\u064e\u0628\u0651\u064f\u0647\u064f\u06e5\u0653 \u0623\u064e\u0633\u0652\u0644\u0650\u0645\u0652 \u06d6 \u0642\u064e\u0627\u0644\u064e \u0623\u064e\u0633\u0652\u0644\u064e\u0645\u0652\u062a\u064f \u0644\u0650\u0631\u064e\u0628\u0651\u0650 \u0671\u0644\u0652\u0639\u064e\u0640\u0670\u0644\u064e\u0645\u0650\u064a\u0646\u064e
\nWhen his Lord said to him, \u201cSubmit\u201d, he said \u201cI have submitted [in Islam] to the Lord of the worlds.\u201d [Al Baqarah 2: 131]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
