His father's harsh treatment did not stop Abraham from delivering the message of truth. Angry and sad to see people prostate before idols, he was determined to stamp out these practices and went to the town to debate with the people knowing full well that he might suffer harm.

He was endowed with spiritual understanding from an early age. Allah enlightened his heart and mind gave him wisdom from childhood.
