feelings of joy and surprise, he asked, “Are you really Khalīlullāh?”
Prophet Ibrāhīm عَـلَيْـهِ الـسَّـلاَم replied, “Yes! I am Khalīlullāh.” No sooner had he heard this than the slave fell unconscious and breathed his last at that very moment. It is narrated that a light descended from the sky at that time and enveloped the body of the fortunate slave.

(2): Then Prophet Ibrāhīm عَـلَيْـهِ الـسَّـلاَم continued his journey. As he walked, he reached a mountain where there was a house with two doors. Prophet Ibrāhīmعَـلَيْـهِ الـسَّـلاَم entered and found a bier inside, upon which a body was laid. Seventy fine garments were placed over it. A tablet was placed near its head. Prophet Ibrāhīm عَـلَيْـهِ الـسَّـلاَم read the tablet, and it was inscribed:
I am Shaddād bin ꜤĀd. I lived for one thousand years. I defeated one thousand armies. I built the city of Iram. But alas, when the time of my death came, all my strategies failed.

Pay heed, the world is deceptive, it is a killer, it forever eludes those who yearn for it!
