Summary
King Namrud sentenced Prophet Ibrahim AS to be burned after he rejected the worship of idols. His people piled up firewood into a great mass and threw him into it. Allah SWT commanded the fire to be cool and safe for Ibrahim, as stated in Surah al-Anbiya' verse 69, and he survived unharmed. The answer also cites narrations from exegetes about the event.
