➋ { وَ بَشَّرُوْهُ بِغُلٰمٍ عَلِيْمٍ:} In Surah Hud, the name of this boy is mentioned as Ishaq; he was a “knowledgeable boy,” and Ismail (peace be upon him) was a “forbearing boy.” His mention is in Surah As-Saffat (101). Ishaq (peace be upon him) was called {’’ بِغُلٰمٍ عَلِيْمٍ ‘‘}, even though {’’ عَلِيْمٍ ‘‘} he was to become in his youth. This shows that children who begin memorizing can be called Hafiz, considering their future. (And Allah knows best)

[22] There could be two reasons for the fear of Sayyiduna Ibrahim ؑ. One is that, according to tribal custom in Arabia, if a guest does not eat food, it is considered that he has come with bad intentions. The second reason is that it is quite possible that by the guests not eating, Sayyiduna Ibrahim ؑ realized that they were not humans but angels. The reason for fear in this situation was that angels do not come in human form except under extraordinary circumstances, so he feared that perhaps some dreadful matter was at hand.
