The excerpt represents the core issue or deciding factor on which you must meditate, and is drawn from The Koran: by, laughing; and we gave her the glad tidings of Isaac, and of
Jacob after Isaac. Said she, 'Alas for me! shall I bear a son when I
am an old woman, and this husband of mine an old man? Verily, this
is a wonderful thing!' They said,' Dost thou wonder at the bidding
of God? God's mercy and blessings upon you, ye people of the house!
Verily, He is to be praised and glorified.'
And when his terror left Abraham, and the glad tidings came to
him, he wrangled with us about the people of Lot; verily, Abraham
was clement, pitiful, relenting.
'O Abraham! avoid this; verily, the bidding of thy Lord has come;
verily, there is coming to them torment that cannot be put off.'
