Hi everyone,
I'm not sure what this means in this context. Does it mean something like 'as a role model to us?'
I know the father was doing good deeds, but not sure what the end of the sentence means.
صرت أبحث لي فيه عن مجد خالد لم يفلح أبي رغم كل صنائعه مع الناس في بنائه لنا
Thank you!

Then, my understanding is the pronoun/damir ه in صنائعه refers to the father, so the ه in فيه shouldn't refer to the same person; otherwise, the sentence wouldn't make sense.
Could you possibly tell us who/what the pronoun ه in فيه refers to?
