We know that Manifestations of God have come to guide humanity throughout the ages, appearing in different places at various stages of history

Abraham was a Manifestation Who appeared several thousand years ago in the ancient city of Ur among a people that worshipped idols and powers in nature.

Ur was located in a region to which we refer today as the Middle East.

Few wanted to listen to the Message brought by Abraham that they should worship the one true God.

Alone and without help, He withstood the forces that opposed Him.
