Hazrat Ibrahim Was Very Much Attached To His Son; He Never Wanted To Lose His Child. But Compulsively Obeying The Order Of Allah, He Slit The Throat Of His Beloved Son. But When He Opened His Eyes After Running A Knife On The Neck, He Saw That His Son Was Standing In Front Of Him Safely. He Saw That Instead Of His Son, The Goat Was Sacrificed By His Hands.
