English - Sahih International

Indeed, Abraham was a [comprehensive] leader, devoutly obedient to Allah, inclining toward truth, and he was not of those who associate others with Allah.

Tafheem-ul-Quran by Syed Abu-al-A'la Maududi

(16:120) The fact is that Abraham was a community in himself : *119 he was obedient to Allah and had turned to Him exclusively. He was never a mushrik.

Tafheem-ul-Quran by Syed Abu-al-A'la Maududi

*119) "Abraham was a community in himself" for at that time he was the only Muslim in the whole world who was upholding the banner of Islam, while the rest of the world was upholding the banner of unbelief. As that servant of Allah performed the Mission which is ordinarily carried out by a whole community, he was not one person but an institution in himself.
