Indeed there has been an excellent example for you in Ibrahim (Abraham) and those with him, when they said to their people: "Verily, we are free from you and whatever you worship besides Allah, we have rejected you, and there has started between us and you, hostility and hatred for ever, until you believe in Allah Alone," except the saying of Ibrahim (Abraham) to his father: "Verily, I will ask for forgiveness (from Allah) for you, but I have no power to do anything for you before Allah." Our Lord! In You (Alone) we put our trust, and to You (Alone) we turn in repentance, and to You (Alone) is (our) final Return,
Hakika nyinyi mna mfano mzuri kwenu kwa Ibrahim na wale walio kuwa pamoja naye, walipo waambia watu wao: Hakika sisi tumejitenga nanyi na hayo mnayo yaabudu badala ya Mwenyezi Mungu. Tunakukataeni; na umekwisha dhihiri uadui na chuki baina yetu na nyinyi mpaka mtakapo muamini Mwenyezi Mungu peke yake. Isipo kuwa kauli ya Ibrahim kumwambia baba yake: Hakika nitakuombea msamaha, wala similiki chochote kwa ajili yako mbele ya Mwenyezi Mungu. Mola wetu Mlezi! Juu yako tumetegemea, na kwako tumeelekea, na kwako ndio marejeo.
