Except Abraham's word/statement to his father: "I will ask for forgiveness for you, and I do not own/possess for you from God from a thing, our Lord, on You we relied depended (on) , and to You we returned/repented , and to You (is) the end/destination." |

In Thee we put our trust, and unto Thee we turn repentant, and unto Thee is the journeying. |
