'''Nimrod b. Canaan''' (Arabic: {{ia|نَمرود بن کنعان}}) was the king of [[Babylon]] at the time of [[Prophet Abraham (a)]]. In the [[Qur'an]], the name of Nimrod is not mentioned, but he is mentioned in [[Quran 2]] and [[Quran 21]]. He was [[idol-worshipper]] and idol-worshipping was common in his kingdom. Since priests had foretold that a boy would born named Abraham and would fight idol-worshipping and conquer Nimrod's kingdom, Nimrod, fearing the birth of Abraham (a), ordered to kill every boy born thereafter, but Abraham (a) was born secretly.

Nimrod judged and debated with Abraham (a) with the charge of insulting the idols and breaking them. After he was defeated by Abraham (a) in debate, casted him into the fire; but, after he found that Abraham (a) was not harmed, released him and made [[sacrifice]] for [[God]]; however, he did not accept to believe in Abraham (a).
