Allah made Abraham a role model for the beleivers because he fulfilled the obligations of Allah and passed the tests sucessfuly. However, the wrongdower of his posterity will not be a model to be followd by the beleivers.
Allah said ( interpretation of the meaning ) :
{ And [mention, O Muhammad], when Abraham was tried by his Lord with words [i.e., commands] and he fulfilled them. [Allah] said, "Indeed, I will make you a leader for the people." [Abraham] said, "And of my descendants?" [Allah] said, "My covenant does not include the wrongdoers." }
