Footnotes
1 - Allāh (subḥānahu wa taʿālā) sent a huge ram to be sacrificed in place of Ishmael.
Then We ransomed him, the one whom he had been commanded to sacrifice, namely, Ishmael or Isaac - two different opinions - with a mighty sacrifice, [a mighty] ram from the Paradise, the same one that Abel had offered as as sacrifice: Gabriel, peace be upon him, brought it and the lord Abraham sacrificed it as he cried, Allaahu akbar, 'God is Great'.
