"How can a merciful God ask a Prophet to kill his son???" In this video, Abu Mussab Wajdi Akkari explores the profound story of Ibrahim ('alayhis-salaam) and the ultimate test of his faith: the command to sacrifice his son, Isma'eel ('alayhis-salaam). Abu Mussab addresses the questions often posed by skeptics and philosophers—how a Merciful God could ask for such a deed—by explaining the concept of divine wisdom and total submission to Allah. This lecture serves as a powerful reminder that true faith often requires us to move beyond human logic and embrace the commands of the Creator with a sound heart and complete trust. In this lecture, we cover: The revelation of the dream to Ibrahim ('alayhis-salaam) as a form of Prophetic Wahy. The incredible obedience and patience shown by Ismail ('alayhis-salaam). The philosophical challenges to the story and why human logic has limits. How this test was a manifestation of the complete 'Aql (intellect) and Iman of Ibrahim ('alayhis-salaam). The significance of Hajj as a celebration of this submission. The danger of letting a "senseless" heart reject divine guidance.
