Now there are people from the previous scripture who say that the sacrifice was Ishaaq or Isaac and it was not Isma'il
Ishaaq was not even born at the time
And this happened in Makkah
So there is no point to dispute that. Historically it is proven that Ishaaq(AS) was not there
Once Allah called out to him and told him that we have replaced this with a sacrificial ram from paradise
Then Allah says "and we gave him good news of another child known as Ishaaq will come to him
So this was another child
Allah says we have granted him good news of another child
"this is how we recompense those who do good.
So anyone who does good, they bear patience, they surrender to the command of Allah, at some point Allah will open their doors in a way that they would never have understood
And the days went passed. And then another order come from Allah to Ibrahim
To build a house as a symbol of the Oneness of Allah Almighty
And Ibrahim will go to the valley in Makkah and he will see Isma'il, and he will say to him "O son! Allah had ordered me an order"
Isma'il will say "O Dad, do what Allah has ordered of you
Ibrahim says "and will you help me?"
Isma'il says "yes, I will help you"
They were making Dua to Allah
"O Allah accept this from us, O Allah we are putting together a house for you"
So as they began to build it it got a little bit high
When it was a little bit high what happened? Ibrahim was getting the bricks or the rocks from Isma'il
There was no mortar used, no cement. Just rock on rock on rock
Each one was fitting into the other, like a jigsaw
So Allah miraculously caused a specific rock that he was standing on to go higher
And he placed it, then it would come slightly higher, he would get the next one then it would go slightly lower...
They knew that this is Allah. This is the house of Allah and definitely He is with us. That is the power of Allah
And when the house was built, there was a corner, Ibrahim thought to himself
"I want to put a proper rock in this corner that fits flush in this corner"
