He was not an idol-worshiper.”And afterward We inspired thee (Muhammad, saying): Follow the religion of Abraham, as one by nature upright. He was not of the idolatersWe have moreover revealed to thee that thou follow the religion of Abraham, the sound in faith. He was not of those who join gods with GodThen we inspired thee, 'Follow the faith of Abraham, a 'Hanif, for he was not of the idolatersthen We revealed to you that follow creed Ibrahim upright and not he was from the associatorsGenerated from a table of word-by-word decisions, not written as prose. Arabic word order is preserved, so it reads stiffly and is not a substitute for a translation written by a person. Every verse is rendered, but the whole remains under review: words marked as judgement rest on weaker evidence than the rest and are flagged in place. No tafsir, hadith or existing translation was consulted.
