Abraham's asking forgiveness for his father was only because of a promise he had made to him, but when it became clear to him, that he was God's enemy, he disassociated himself from him. Surely, Abraham was most tender-hearted and forbearing.
آمرزش خواستن ابراهيم براى پدرش، نبود مگر به خاطر وعده‌اى كه به او داده بود. و چون براى او آشكار شد كه پدرش دشمن خداست، از او بيزارى جست. زيرا ابراهيم بسيار خداى‌ترس و بردبار بود.
