Abraham in Old Testament In comparison to his mystic image in Quran

Abraham is on of the great prophets, selected to convey message of monotheism to others. According to Old Testament, Abram, then named as Abraham, is the descendent of Noah, whom God commended to leave his hometown and travel to Egypt. According to his divine testament, God blessed him and his family and willed his descendant to spread all over the world. On the route, he was tested and trialed in different ways, in which he was completely elate. However, there are some quotes in Old Testament which are not compatible with Abraham's characteristics. The image of Abraham in Quran is the one of a perfect man, who achieved the highest divine degree. Abraham is an innocent prophet, a distinguished Imam who revolted against cruelty and reconstructed Ka'ba as a safe site for monotheists. On the way, Abraham was elated in many different trials as son-sacrifice, and burning in fire. These made him an ideal sample of knowledge, monotheism, and submission for all monotheists. Hanif, Khalil, Muslim, Avvah, Abd, Halim, and distinguished are Abraham's adjectives cited in Holy Quran.
