Editing Abraham in Islam (section)

==Title==
Abraham is given the title ''Khalilullah'' in Islam.<ref name=bbc /> The Quran says:
{{Blockquote|And who is better in faith than those who ˹fully˺ submit themselves to Allah, do good, and follow the Way of Abraham, the upright? Allah chose Abraham as a close friend.|{{qref|4|125|c=y}}}}
This particular title of Abraham is so famous in [[Islamic culture|Muslim culture]] and tradition that, in the areas in and around Mecca, Abraham is often referred to solely as ''The Friend''.<ref>''Mecca: From Before Genesis Until Now'', M. Lings. Archetype Books</ref> This title of ''Friend of God'' is not exclusive to Islamic theology. Although the other religious traditions do not stress upon it, Abraham is called a ''Friend of God'' in the second [[Books of Chronicles|Book of Chronicles]] and the [[Book of Isaiah]] in the [[Hebrew Bible]] ([[Old Testament]])<ref>{{Bibleverse||Isaiah|41:8}} and {{Bibleverse|2|Chronicles|20:7}}</ref> as well as in the [[New Testament]].<ref>{{Bibleverse||James|2:23}}</ref>
