An-Nisa' · Ayah 125 · Juz 5 · Page 98

وَمَنۡ أَحۡسَنُ دِينٗا مِّمَّنۡ أَسۡلَمَ وَجۡهَهُۥ لِلَّهِ وَهُوَ مُحۡسِنٞ وَٱتَّبَعَ مِلَّةَ إِبۡرَٰهِيمَ حَنِيفٗاۗ وَٱتَّخَذَ ٱللَّهُ إِبۡرَٰهِيمَ خَلِيلٗا ١٢٥

Wa man aḥsanu dīnam mimman aslama wajhahū lillāhi wa huwa muḥsinuw wattabaʿa millata ibrāhīma ḥanīfā, wattakhadhallāhu ibrāhīma khalīlā.

And who is better in religion than one who submits himself to Allāh while being a doer of good and follows the religion of Abraham, inclining toward truth? And Allāh took Abraham as an intimate friend.
