Ayah: 114

وَمَا كَانَ ٱسۡتِغۡفَارُ إِبۡرَٰهِيمَ لِأَبِيهِ إِلَّا عَن مَّوۡعِدَةٖ وَعَدَهَآ إِيَّاهُ فَلَمَّا تَبَيَّنَ لَهُۥٓ أَنَّهُۥ عَدُوّٞ لِّلَّهِ تَبَرَّأَ مِنۡهُۚ إِنَّ إِبۡرَٰهِيمَ لَأَوَّٰهٌ حَلِيمٞ

114. Abraham’s asking forgiveness for his father was only owing to a promise which he had made to him; but when it became clear to him that he was an enemy of Allāh, he declared himself to be clear of him. Indeed, Abraham is surely compassionate, forbearing.
