﴿فَلَمَّا بَلَغَ مَعَهُ السَّعْيَ قَالَ يَا بُنَيَّ إِنِّي أَرَىٰ فِي الْمَنَامِ أَنِّي أَذْبَحُكَ فَانظُرْ مَاذَا تَرَىٰ ۚ قَالَ يَا أَبَتِ افْعَلْ مَا تُؤْمَرُ ۖ سَتَجِدُنِي إِن شَاءَ اللَّهُ مِنَ الصَّابِرِينَ﴾
[ الصافات: 102]
37:102 And when he reached with him [the age of] exertion, he said, "O my son, indeed I have seen in a dream that I [must] sacrifice you, so see what you think." He said, "O my father, do as you are commanded. You will find me, if Allah wills, of the steadfast."
Tafsir Ibn Katheer in EnglishWhen Ishmael grew into a youth and reached working age, his father Abraham saw a dream.
The dreams of prophets are a form of divine revelation, so Abraham said to his son, informing him of the meaning of this dream, “O my son! Indeed, I saw in my sleep that I am slaughtering you; what is your opinion in the matter?” Ishmael replied to him saying, “O my father! Do whatever Allah has commanded you to do in slaughtering me.
You will find me one of those who are patient and content with the order of Allah.
”
Muhammad Taqiud-Din alHilali
And, when he (his son) was old enough to walk with him, he said: "O my son! I have seen in a dream that I am slaughtering you (offer you in sacrifice to Allah), so look what you think!" He said: "O my father! Do that which you are commanded, Insha' Allah (if Allah will), you shall find me of As-Sabirin (the patient ones, etc.)."

Then, when (the son) reached (the age of) (serious) work with him, he said: "O my son! I see in vision that I offer thee in sacrifice: Now see what is thy view!" (The son) said: "O my father! Do as thou art commanded: thou will find me, if Allah so wills one practising Patience and Constancy!"

37:102 And when he reached with him [the age of] exertion, he said, translate in arabic
فلما بلغ معه السعي قال يابني إني أرى في المنام أني أذبحك فانظر ماذا ترى قال ياأبت افعل ما تؤمر ستجدني إن شاء الله من الصابرين
سورة: الصافات - آية: ( 102 ) - جزء: ( 23 ) - صفحة: ( 449 )Almuntakhab Fi Tafsir Alquran Alkarim
And when the son attained maturity and was able to participate in his fathers divine service the father intimated to him his mystical vision. He said: my son I saw in my dream that I offer you up to Allah as a sacrifice and so, see what you think and what you have to say. But the son said: O father do what you have been commanded, you shall find me with patience, Allah willing, bearing your act
Tafseer Tafheem-ul-Quran by Syed Abu-al-A'la Maududi
(37:102) and when he was old enough to go about and work with him, (one day) Abraham said to him: 'My son, I see in my dream that I am slaughtering you. *58 So consider (and tell me) what you think.' *59 He said: 'Do as you are bidden. *60 You will find me, if Allah so wills, among the steadfast.'
And when he reached with him [the age of] exertion, he said, meaning
*58) One should note that the Prophet Abraham had dreamt that he was sacrificing his son and not that he had sacrificed him. Although at that time he understood the dream to mean that he should sacrifice his son and on that very basis, he became ready to sacrifice him, with a cool mind, yet the fine point that Allah had in view in making him see the dream has been explained by Himself in verse 105 below.
*59) The object of asking this of the son was not that he would carry out Allah's Command only if he agreed, otherwise not, but the Prophet Abraham, in fact, wanted to find out how righteous, in actual reality, was his child for whom he had prayed to Allah. If the son himself was found to be ready to lay down his life for the sake of Allah's approval and pleasure, it would mean that the prayer had been fully granted, and the son was not his offspring in the natural way only but was morally aad spiritually also a true son.
*60) The words clearly tell that the son had not taken the dream of his Prophet father to be a mere dream but a Command from Allah. Had it not been a Command actually, it was necessary that Allah should have explicitly or implicitly stated that the son of Abraham had mistaken it for a command. But the whole context is without any such allusion. On this very basis, there is the Islamic belief that the dream of the Prophets is never a mere dream it is also a kind of Revelation. Obviously, if a thing, which could become such a fundamental principle in the Divine Shari'ah, had not been based on reality, but had been a mere misunderstanding, it was not possible that Allah should not have refuted it. It is impossible for the one who believes the Qur'an to be Allah's Word, to accept That such an error and omission could emanate from Allah also.
And when he reached with him [the age of] exertion, he said, meaning in Urdu
وہ لڑکا جب اس کے ساتھ دوڑ دھوپ کرنے کی عمر کو پہنچ گیا تو (ایک روز) ابراہیمؑ نے اس سے کہا، "بیٹا، میں خواب میں دیکھتا ہوں کہ میں تجھے ذبح کر رہا ہوں، اب تو بتا، تیرا کیا خیال ہے؟" اُس نے کہا، "ابا جان، جو کچھ آپ کو حکم دیا جا رہا ہے اسے کر ڈالیے، آپ انشاءاللہ مجھے صابروں میں سے پائیں گے"
