[Ana`am 6:74] And remember when Ibrahim said to his father (paternal uncle) Azar, �What! You appoint idols as Gods? Indeed I find you and your people in open error.� (Prophet Ibrahim was rightly guided since birth).

[Ana`am 6:75] And likewise We showed Ibrahim the entire kingdom of the heavens and the earth and so that he be of those who believe as eyewitnesses.

[Ana`am 6:76] So when the night became dark upon him he saw a star; he said (to Azar / the people), �(You portray that) this is my Lord?�; then when it set he said, �I do not like the things that set.�

[Ana`am 6:77] Then when he saw the moon shining, he said, �(You proclaim that) this is my Lord?�; then when it set, he said, �If my Lord had not guided me *, I too would be one of these astray people.� (* Prophet Ibrahim was rightly guided before this event).

[Ana`am 6:78] Then when he saw the sun shining brightly, he said, �(You say that) this is my Lord? This is the biggest of them all!�; then when it set he said, �O people! I do not have any relation with the whatever you ascribe as partners (to Him).�

[Ana`am 6:79] �I have directed my attention towards Him Who has created the heavens and the earth, am devoted solely to Him, and am not of the polytheists.�

[Ana`am 6:80] And his people argued with him; he said, �What! You dispute with me concerning Allah? So He has guided me; and I do not have any fear of whatever you ascribe as partners, except what my Lord wills (to happen); my Lord�s knowledge encompasses all things; so will you not accept advice?�

[Ana`am 6:81] �And how should I fear whatever you ascribe as partners, whilst you do not fear that you have ascribed partners to Allah - for which He has not sent down on you any proof? So which of the two groups has more right to refuge, if you know?�
