M. H. Shakir, The Holy Quran; Arabic Text and English Translation; Foot-notes by M. H. Shakir (1974)

Beneficent God should afflict you so that you should be a friend of the Shaitan.

46. He said: Do you dislike my gods, O Ibrahim? If you do not desist I will certainly revile you, and leave me for a time.

47. He said: Peace be on you, I will pray to my Lord to forgive you; surely He is ever Affectionate to me:

48. And I will withdraw from you and what you call on besides Allah, and I will call upon my Lord; may be I shall not remain unblessed in calling upon my Lord.

49. So when he withdrew from them and what they worshipped besides Allah, We gave to him Ishaq and Yaqoub, and each one of them We made a prophet.

50. And We granted to them of Our mercy, and We left (behind them) a truthful mention of eminence for them.

Section 4

51. And mention Musa in the Book; surely he was one purified, and he was an apostle, a prophet.

52. And We called to him from the blessed side of the mountain, and We made him draw nigh, holding communion (with Us).

53. And We gave to him out of Our mercy his brother Haroun a prophet.
