Tafheem-ul-Quran (En) - Maryam : 41
وَ اذْكُرْ فِی الْكِتٰبِ اِبْرٰهِیْمَ١ؕ۬ اِنَّهٗ كَانَ صِدِّیْقًا نَّبِیًّا   ۧ
(O Muhammad), recite in the Book the account of Abraham. 26 Most surely he was a man of truth, a Prophet.
26. From here the address is directed towards the people of Makkah, who had forced their own near and dear relatives to emigrate from their homes, just as Prophet Abraham (peace be upon him) had been exiled by his own father and brethren. The story of Prophet Abraham (peace be upon him) has been selected for this purpose because the Quraish professed to accept him as their religious leader and were proud of being his descendants.
