124. And remember that Abraham was tried by his Lord with certain commands, which
he fulfilled: He said: "I will make thee an Imam to the Nations." He pleaded: "And also
(Imams) from my offspring!" He answered: "But My Promise is not within the reach of
evil-doers."

125. Remember We made the House a place of assembly for men and a place of safety;
and take ye the station of Abraham as a place of prayer; and We covenanted with
Abraham and Isma'il, that they should sanctify My House for those who compass it
round, or use it as a retreat, or bow, or prostrate themselves (therein in prayer).
