19.41 . And make mention ( O Muhammad ) in the Scripture of Abraham . Lo! he was a saint , a Prophet .

19.42 . When he said unto his father : O my father! Why worshippest thou that which beareth not nor seeth , nor can in aught avail thee?

19.43 . O my father! Lo! there hath come unto me of knowledge that which came not unto thee . So follow me , and I will lead thee on a right path .

19.44 . O my father! Serve not the devil . Lo! the devil is a rebel unto the Beneficent .

19.45 . O my father! Lo! I fear lest a punishment from the Beneficent overtake thee so that thou become a comrade of the devil .

19.46 . He said : Rejectest thou my gods , O Abraham? If thou cease not , I shall surely stone thee . Depart from me a long while!

19.47 . He said : Peace be unto thee! I shall ask forgiveness of my Lord for thee . Lo! He was ever gracious unto me .

19.48 . I shall withdraw from you and that unto which ye pray beside Allah , and I shall pray unto my Lord . It may be that , in prayer unto my Lord , I shall not be unblest .

19.49 . So , when he had withdrawn from them and that which they were worshipping beside Allah . We gave him Isaac and Jacob . Each of them We made a Prophet .

19.50 . And We gave them of Our mercy , and assigned to them a high and true renown .

19.51 . And make mention in the Scripture of Moses . Lo! he was chosen , and he was a messenger ( of Allah ) , a Prophet .

19.52 . We called him from the right slope of the Mount , and brought him nigh in communion .

19.53 . And We bestowed upon him of Our mercy his brother Aaron , a Prophet ( likewise ) .

19.54 . And make mention in the Scripture of Ishmael . Lo! he was a keeper of his promise , and he was a messenger ( of Allah ) a Prophet .

19.55 . He enjoined upon his people worship and alms giving , and was acceptable in the sight of his Lord .

19.56 . And make mention in the Scripture of Idris . Lo! he was a saint , a Prophet ;

19.57 . And We raised him to high station .

19.58 . These are they unto whom Allah showed favor from among the Prophets , of the seed of Adam and of those whom We carried ( in the ship ) with Noah , and of the seed of Abraham and Israel , and from among those whom We guided and chose . When the revelations of the Beneficent were recited unto them , they fell down , adoring and weeping .

19.59 . Now there hath succeeded them a later generation who have ruined worship and have followed lusts . But they will meet deception .

19.60 . Save him who shall repent and believe and do right Such will enter the Garden and they will not be wronged in aught .
