As Prophet Ibrahim, known for his unwavering devotion to God narrated the dream to his son, Ismail agreed to comply with God’s command. </p> <p>As Prophet Ibrahim and Ismail prepared to fulfill God’s command, Satan tried dissuading them, but they continued on their mission resisting the temptations. </p> <p>Just as Ismail was about to be sacrificed, he was replaced by a sheep that got slaughtered. </p> <p>To mark Prophet Ibrahim’s absolute submission to God, Muslims around the world sacrifice goats, sheep, and other animals. The meat is distributed in three parts — one for the needy, another for self, and the last one for friends and relatives.</p> <p><strong>Subscribe And Follow ABP Live On Telegram:</strong><a href="https://ift.tt/myPhcj3"> <strong>https://ift.tt/9bdJ3yM>
