They decided to throw prophet Ibrahim(AS) into the biggest fire they could build. They dug a deep hole and filled it with firewood and made a huge fire.
The fire had such heat that people had to move far away from it. They tied his hands and feet and put him on the Catapult. They were ready to throw him into the fire. At that time angel, Gabriel came near his head and asked him do wish to save from the fire?'' Ibrahim(AS) said he only wished Allah(SWT) would be pleased with him.
They then pulled the shooter and Ibrahim(AS) was thrown into the fire. But Allah(SWT would not allow his prophet to be killed. He odered the fire to be cool and safe for the prophet. And then a miracle happened. Dire obeyed Allah(SWT oder Ibrahim(AS came out of the fire unharmed as if he were coming out from a garden. There were no sign of smoke on his clothes.
