[9:114] And [Ibrahim's (Abraham)] invoking (of Allah) for his father's
forgiveness was only because of a promise he [Ibrahim (Abraham)] had
made to him (his father). But when it became clear to him [Ibrahim
(Abraham)]that he (his father) is an enemy to Allah, he dissociated
himself from him. Verily Ibrahim (Abraham) was Al-Awwah (has fifteen
different meanings but the correct one seems to be that he used to
invoke Allah with humility, glorify Him and remember Him much), and
was forbearing.(Tafsir Al-Qurtubi).

(The prayer of Abraham forthe forgiveness of his father was only
because of a promise he had promisedhim) that he would surrender, (but
when it hadbecome clear unto him that he (his father) was an enemy to
Allah) that he had died an unbeliever (he (Abraham) disowned him) and
his religion. (Lo! Abraham was soft of heart)in the face of ignorance,
(long-suffering )compassionate; it is also said that Abraham used to
complain about fire even before being thrown in it/
