وَاِبۡرٰہِیۡمَ الَّذِیۡ وَفّٰۤی
Commentary:
Patriarch Abraham, the progenitor of the three great religious peoples—Jews, Christians and Muslims—fulfilled faithfully the covenant he had made with God. He carried out literally all Divine commandments. He was made to pass through severe trials and tribulations and successfully came out of those ordeals. Says the Quran: And remember when his Lord tried Abraham with certain commands, which he fulfilled (2:125). Abraham was commanded by God to leave his only son Ishmael, (the hope and prop of his old age), when a mere child, with his elderly mother, in the arid and barren waste, near Mecca, and then, the child having grown up to be a young boy, he was commanded to slaughter him, which command Abraham prepared to carry out, without the least hesitancy. It were actions like these that earned for him the divine title of the Faithful, which is the significance of the word وفی.
