As Ibrahim and Ismaeel are building the Kaaba, they start to make dua for the Ummah of the Prophet Muhammad. They ask Allah to send from amongst them a messenger who would recite upon them the verses, and who would teach them the book and its wisdom. The 'wisdom' here is the Sunnah of the Prophet Muhammad. They also ask for Allah to purify them of the things that we’ve already seen in this Surah that have taken people away from guidance, such as the desires that they would give preference to over what Allah commands them to do, and of the pride that could cause a person to permanently insist on misguidance until they meet the most humiliating end.
