How is the mentioning or honoring of Ibrahim by later generations interpreted? (Shia or Sufi View)

I'm a bit curious about the interpretation of the mentioning/honoring of Ibrahim (), especially from the Shi'a and/or Sufi perspective (not excluding other interpretations, but I have no access/knowledge of sources of the named sects) in context of the verses: - The verse in surat a-Shu'ara where Ibrahim () asks Allah () to give or grant him a good reputation by later generations: > And grant me a reputation of honor among later generations. (26:84 ) - and the verse from surat as-Saffat where Allah () has "answered" Ibrahim's supplication, saying: > And We left for him [favorable mention] among later generations: (37:108 )
