Every type of religious and worldly blessing was bestowed upon Prophet Ibrāhīm and Prophet Isḥāq عَـلَيْـهِ الـسَّـلَام. One noticeable blessing is abundance in the offspring of Prophet Ibrāhīm عَـلَيْـهِ الـسَّـلَام; many Prophets عَـلَـيْـهِمُ وَالـسَّـلَام were sent amongst them between the time of Prophet Yaʿqūb عَـلَيْـهِ الـسَّـلَام and Prophet ʿĪsā عَـلَيْـهِ الـسَّـلَام.

From the offspring of these two are those who do good by accepting faith and those who wrong themselves by disbelieving. This points to how just because someone’s father has many virtues, it is not necessarily the case that the son will also be the same. It is the will of Allah Almighty that sometimes a pious person is born to pious parents, at times an evil person to evil parents and sometimes a pious person to an evil person. This is in order to establish that children not being virtuous is not a flaw of the forefathers, and forefathers not being virtuous is not a cause for shame for their offspring.
