S 2:130 And who has an aversion from Ibrahim’s cult but he who has stultified himself? And we chose him in the dunya and he in the hereafter is of the righteous.
S 2:135 And they said: Be Jews or Nasara, to be guided. Say: No, the cult of Ibrahim, a Hanif. And he was not of the mushrikun.
S 3:95 Say: Allah has told the truth so follow the cult of Ibrahim a Hanif. And he was not of the mushrikun.
S 4:125 And who is better in religion than he who has surrendered his face to Lah and he is a good-doer and has followed the cult of Ibrahim a Hanif? And Allah took Ibrahim as a friend.
S 6:161 Say: I, my lord has guided me to a straight path, a worthy religion, the cult of Ibrahim, a Hanif. And he was not of the mushrikun.
A worthy religion? How many worthy religions are there?
S 16:123 Then we inspired you: Follow the cult of Ibrahim, a Hanif. And he was not of the mushrikun.
S 22:78 And wage jihad for Allah with his due jihad. He has selected you and has not put upon you in the religion any difficulty. The cult of your father Ibrahim. He named you Muslims before and in this, that the messenger may be a witness over you and you may be witnesses over people. So establish salat and give zakat and hang on to Allah. He is your mawla. So excellent was the mawla and excellent the helper.
No difficulty? Weren't there and aren't there Muslims who dislike jihad, and doesn't the author say that it was hateful to Muslims, but it was written for them? Who named them Muslims? Allah or Ibrahim? If Ibrahim, he did so that 'the messenger' might be a witness over Muslims and that they might be witnesses over people, at least 'in this' (the Quran?)? Did Ibrahim shape Islam? Did he create it? And Allah is their mawla?
S 2:216 Fighting has been written upon you while it is something hateful to you. And perhaps you dislike a thing and it is good for you, and perhaps you love a thing and it is evil for you. And Allah knows and you do not know.
