Volume: (2) - Page Number: (177)
[The text is lengthy, so only the relevant excerpt is provided here]
- .... {My Lord, make me an establisher of prayer, and many from my descendants} (Ibrahim 14:40) This phrase indicates that "many from my descendants" is connected to what is stipulated in 'make me,' and it is only "many" because it is known through the signs of God that there will be unbelievers in his descendants. Ibn Abbas (may he be pleased with him) said: "There will always be some of the descendants of Ibrahim on the natural human disposition (fitrah) until the Hour is established."
