Ibrahim ibn Adham
Central Asian Sufi saint (718–782)
Ibrahim ibn Adham also called Ibrahim Balkhi and Ebrahim-e Adham (Persian: ابراهیم ادهم); c. 718 – c. 782 / AH c. 100 – c. 165[1] is one of the most prominent of the early Sufi saints known for his zuhd (asceticism).
The story of his conversion is one of the most celebrated in Sufi legend, mentioned in the Tazkirat al-Awliya of Attar of Nishapur .[2] Sufi tradition ascribes to Ibrahim countless acts of righteousness and his humble lifestyle, which contrasted sharply with his early life as the king of Balkh (itself an earlier centre of Buddhism). As recounted by Abu Nu'aym al-Isfahani, Ibrahim emphasized the importance of stillness and meditation for asceticism. Rumi extensively described the legend of Ibrahim in his Masnavi. The most famous of Ibrahim's students is Shaqiq al-Balkhi (d. 810).

Anant koti bajee taha, rachey sakal brahamand • The glorious Quran mentions Ibrahim 73 times and tells a dozen of his different stories and encounters with various people, over and over again. The Quran pays a glowing tribute to his wisdom, bravery, love of God and dedication to the progress of humanity. The book of Genesis in the Old Testament gives a detailed biography of Ibrahim and commentators of the Quran have freely used these to embellish the Quranic narrative. His legacy is preaching boldly the belief in one God (Tawhid), and his shunning of the idols of the pagans and challenging them to reflect and think about who they worship and above all his willingness to sacrifice his most prized beloved son for the love of God. Here we retell this wonderful story. Ibrahim was born nearly 4000 years ago in what is now Iraq. It was known as the Chaldean Empire, where he grew up in ‘Ur’ near present day city of Mosul. The city was a famous centre for worship of stars, the moon, the sun and they believed that these celestial bodies had enormous influence on human destiny. In addition, they worshipped idols made of wood, stone or any other material they could lay their hands on. These became the household gods, and their worship was regarded as essential part of daily life and would lead to better health and good fortunes in fa
