95. He said: Worship ye that which ye yourselves do carve
96. When Allah hath created you and what ye make?
97. They said: Build for him a building and fling him in the red hot fire.
98. And they designed a snare for him, but We made them the undermost.
99. And he said: Lo! I am going unto my Lord Who will guide me
100. My Lord! Vouchsafe me of the righteous.
101. So We gave him tidings of a gentle son.
102. And when (his son) was old enough to walk with him, (Abraham) said: O my dear son, I have seen in a dream that
I must sacrifice thee. So look, what thinkest thou? He said: O my father! Do that which thou art commanded. Allah
willing, thou shalt find me of the steadfast.
103. Then, when they had both surrendered (to Allah), and he had flung him down upon his face,
104. We called unto him: O Abraham:
105. Thou hast already fulfilled the vision. Lo! thus do We reward the good.
106. Lo! that verily was a clear test.
107. Then We ransomed him with a tremendous victim.
108. And We left for him among the later folk (the salutation):
109. Peace be unto Abraham!
110. Thus do We reward the good.
111. Lo! he is one of Our believing slaves.
112. And We gave him tidings of the birth of Isaac, a Prophet of the righteous.
113. And We blessed him and Isaac. And of their seed are some who do good, and some who plainly wrong themselves.
114. And We verily gave grace unto Moses and Aaron,
115. And saved them and their people from the great distress,
116. And helped them so that they became the victors.
117. And We gave them the clear Scripture
118. And showed them the right path.
119. And We left for them, among the later folk (the salutation):
120. Peace be unto Moses and Aaron!
121. Lo! thus do We reward the good.
122. Lo! they are two of our believing slaves.
123. And lo! Elias was of those sent (to warn)
124. When he said unto his folk: Will ye not ward off (evil)?
125. Will ye cry unto Baal and forsake the best of Creators,
126. Allah, your Lord and Lord of your forefathers?
127. But they denied him, so they surely will be haled forth (to the doom)
128. Save single minded slaves of Allah.
129. And we left for him among the later folk (the salutation):
130. Peace be unto Elias!
131. Lo! thus do We reward the good.
132. Lo! he is one of our believing slaves.
133. And lo! Lot verily was of those sent (to warn),
134. When We saved him and his household, every one,
135. Save an old woman among those who stayed behind;
136. Then We destroyed the others.
137. And Lo! ye verily pass by (the ruin of) them in the morning
138. And at night time; have ye then no sense?
139. And lo! Jonah verily was of those sent (to warn)
140. When he fled unto the laden ship,
141. And then drew lots and was of those rejected;
142. And the fish swallowed him while be was blameworthy;
143. And had he not been one of those who glorify (Allah)
