آية: 123

ثُمَّ أَوۡحَيۡنَآ إِلَيۡكَ أَنِ ٱتَّبِعۡ مِلَّةَ إِبۡرَٰهِيمَ حَنِيفٗاۖ وَمَا كَانَ مِنَ ٱلۡمُشۡرِكِينَ

(123) ^[3465]Then We revealed to you ˹Muhammad˺ that you are to follow the creed of Ibrāhīm, ˹who was˺ rightly-oriented and ˹verily˺ not from among the Associators.

[3465] Such laudation reflects on Prophet Muhammad (ﷺ) and the religion of Islam, being the rightful, God-ordained heir of this great legacy. This is in contrast to any of the Arabs who claimed such honour but who were way off the mark (cf. Ibn ʿĀshūr).
The ‘creed of Ibrāhīm’, millata Ibrāhīm, known as Ḥanīfiyyah, is the most primordial, pristine, uncorrupted precursor to all heavenly-revealed religions. The Qur’an underlines Islam’s close relation to it in various places: 2: 135, 4: 125, 6: 161 and 16: 123.
