and there was almost no du'a that he missed out

and this is why Allah has mentioned a lot of the du'a's

of Ibrahim alaihi salam, du'a meaning the supplications

of the Prophet Abraham may peace be upon him in the Quran

and from among them we've been through some of them

but every time he did a good deed
