17: 19 “But whoever strives for the destiny and exerts the effort due to it as a believer - it is their effort for which Allah is Grateful.
"When Ismail was still a small baby, his father Ibrahim took him and his mother, Hajra, to the site of the Ka’ba. He gave them some dates and a goat skin full of water and left them there. At that time no one lived at the Ka’ba, and there was no water nearby. As Ibrahim was walking away, Ismail’s mother followed him, asking why she and her son were being left in such a desolate place. She asked several times but he would not answer her. Finally, she asked if Allah had ordered him to do this and he replied that it was so. Upon hearing this, she accepted Allah’s will and returned to the site where Ibrahim had left her."
