Assignment # 3 There is a very close similarity to this story to this story as of the story in the Holy Bible about Abraham asking God for a child. Presently let’s get to the story at hand. That is in the Qur’an sura 37 verses 100 – 111. Farther on Abraham did ask God for a child, and God had blessed him with a child.
