1. Surah As-Saffat (37:102–107) – Story of Ibrahim and Isma'il

37:102"Then when he reached with him [the age of] exertion, he said, 'O my son, indeed I have seen in a dream that I [must] sacrifice you, so see what you think.' He said, 'O my father, do as you are commanded. You will find me, if Allah wills, of the steadfast.'"

22:37"It is neither their meat nor their blood that reaches Allah, but it is your piety that reaches Him..."
