Most researchers believe that Abraham (a) was born in the 20th century BC, and some of them mention the exact year of 1996 BC. In Islamic sources, a number of cities have been introduced as birthplaces of Abraham (a). According to [[al-Tabari]]'s history, some people take Babylon or Kutha, a region in [[Iraq]] where Nimrod ruled, as the birthplace of Abraham (a), and others take Uruk or Harran as his birthplace, adding that later he was taken by his father to Babylon or Kutha. According to a [[hadith]] from [[Imam al-Sadiq (a)]], Kutha is the birthplace of Abraham (a) and the base of Nimrod. Ibn Battuta, a six-century tourist, mentions a place called "Burs" between [[Hillah]] and [[Baghdad]] in Iraq which was known as the birthplace of Abraham (a). | Most researchers believe that Abraham (a) was born in the 20th century BC, and some of them mention the exact year of 1996 BC.<ref>Sajjādī.
