Famous quotes containing the word abraham:
“As for evildoers, for them awaits a painful chastisement;
but for those who believe, and do deeds
of righteousness, they shall be admitted
to gardens underneath which rivers flow,
therein dwelling forever,
by the leave of their Lord, their greeting
therein: Peace!”
—QurAn. Abraham 14:28 (ed. Arthur J. Arberry, 1955)
