Prophets
Chapter: The Statement of Allah Taa'la: "...And Allah did take Ibrahim as a Khalil."
Narrated Ibn `Abbas:
The Prophet (ﷺ) entered the Ka`ba and found in it the pictures of (Prophet) Abraham and Mary. On that he said' "What is the matter with them ( i.e. Quraish)? They have already heard that angels do not enter a house in which there are pictures; yet this is the picture of Abraham. And why is he depicted as practicing divination by arrows?"
Sahih al-Bukhari 3351
