Storyboard Text
- O Ibrahim, are we to be left alone in this valley with no water, or food or companions?”
- “Then we will not be lost.”
- Did Allah tell you to do this?
- YES!
- “O Lord! I have settled some of my offspring in a barren valley by Your Sacred House so that they would perform the Prayer. O Lord, make the hearts of some people yearn towards them and provide them with fruits for which they would give thanks”.
- Hagar repeatedly asked Ibrahim her question, but he did not answer.
- Ibrahim left Hagar and Ismail and returned to Palestine without them, just as Allah commanded.
- “Do not fear loss, for there is a sacred House here which will be built by this child and his father”,
- Ibrahim prayed for Hagar and his son, Ismail.
- Hagar ran out of water. She was unable to breastfeed Ismail. The baby became distressed because they were hungry and thirsty.
- Hagar began to search frantically for water. She was running between the two hills when Angel Jibril appeared
- In his distress, Ismail dug his toes into the sand. In doing so, he discovered the Well of Zamzam, a fresh spring water, which saved him and Hagar from dying of thirst.
