quran:11:75 –

Indeed, Abraham was forbearing, grieving and ˹frequently˺ returning ˹to Allah˺.  

Assuredly Abraham was forbearing, long-suffering, imploring, penitent, always returning ˹to God˺ in repentance: thus he said to them, ‘Would you destroy a town in which there are 300 believers?’ They said, ‘No’. He said, ‘Would you destroy a town in which there are 200 believers?’ They said, ‘No’. He said, ‘Would you destroy a town in which there are 40 believers?’ They said, ‘No’. He said, ‘Would you destroy a town in which there are 14 believers?’ They said, ‘No’. He said, ‘What if there were one believer in it?’ They said, ‘No’. He said, ‘Lot is in it’. They said, ‘We know full well who is in it’ … to the end ˹of the narrative˺.
القرآن:١١:٧٥ –

إِنَّ إِبْرَاهِيمَ لَحَلِيمٌ أَوَّاهٌ مُنِيبٌ  

{إن إبراهيم لحليم} كثير الأناة {أوَّاهٌ مُنيب} رجّاع، فقال لهم أتهلكون قرية فيها ثلاثمائة مؤمن؟ قالوا لا، أفتهلكون قرية فيها مائتا مؤمن؟ قالوا لا، قال أفتهلكون قرية فيها أربعون مؤمنا؟ قالوا لا، قال أفتهلكون قرية فيها أربعة عشر مؤمنا؟ قالوا لا، قال أفرأيتم إن كان فيها مؤمن واحد قالوا لا، إن فيها لوطا قالوا نحن أعلم بمن فيها إلخ.
