Abraham was a [comprehensive] leader

Abraham believed in Allah alone before anyone else believed, so he was a righteous leader with honorable qualities, and rewarded him with this noble rank.

Allah said ( interpretation of the meaning ) :

{ Indeed, Abraham was a [comprehensive] leader,1 devoutly obedient to Allah, inclining toward truth, and he was not of those who associate others with Allah. [He was] grateful for His favors. He [i.e., Allah] chose him and guided him to a straight path. And We gave him good in this world, and indeed, in the Hereafter he will be among the righteous. }
