Prophet Ismail (Ishmael) the 7th Prophet PBUH PART 4 Makka is Settled - by Ibn Abbas Ibn Abbas continued narrating: Ishmaels mother started drinking from the water, and her milk increased for her child. Afterwards some people of the tribe of Hurhum saw some birds while passing through the bottom of the valley and that astonished them. They said: birds can only be found at a place where there is water. They sent a messenger who searched the place and found the water and returned to inform them about it. Then they all went to her and said: O Ishmaels mother! Will you allow us to be with you (or dwell with you)? Then they stayed there. Ishmaels Wives - by Ibn Abbas Later on her boy reached the age of puberty and married a lady from them. Then an idea occurred to Abraham, which he disclosed to his wife (sarah). I want to call on my dependants I left at Mecca. When he went there he greeted Ishmaels wife and said: where is Ishmael? She replied: He has gone out hunting. Abraham said to her: When he comes, tell him to change the threshold of his gate. When Ishmael came she told him the same and whereupon Ishmael said to her: you are the threshold so go to your family (you are divorced). Again Abraham thought of visiting his dependents whom he had left at Mecca, and told his wife (Sarah) of his intentions. Abraham came to Ishmaels house and asked: Where is Ishmael? Ishmaels wife replied: He has gone out hunting, and added: will you stay for some time and have something to eat and drink? Abraham said: what is your food and what is your drink? she replied: our food is meat and our drink is water. he replied: O Allah! Bless their meals and their drink. Abu Al Qasim (the Prophet)(pbuh) said: Because of Abrahams invocation there are blessings in Mecca. Kaba is Built - by Ibn Abbas Ibn Abbas continued: Once more Abraham thought of visiting his family he had left at Mecca and he told his wife (Sarah) of his decision. HE went and found Ishmael behind the Zam-zam well, mending his arrows. He said: O Ishmael, your Lord has ordered me to build a house for Him. Ishmael said: Obey the order of your Lord. Abraham said: Allah has also ordered me that you should help me therein. Ishmael said: Then I will do so. So both of them were saying: O our Lord! Accept this service of us, verily, You are the All Hearer, the All Knower. (Ch 2:127) When the building became high and the old man (Abraham) could no longer lift the stones to such a high position, he stood over the stone of Al Maqam and Ishmael carried on handing him the stones and both of them were saying: O our Lord! Accept this service of us, verily You are the All Hearer, the All Knower.
