The Holy Quran 37:93 — Surah As-Saffat

Arabic text

فَرَاغَ عَلَيْهِمْ ضَرْبًۢا بِٱلْيَمِينِ

Translation

(With an axe in his hand,) He then turned to them, striking them with force (with the right hand breaking all of them except the largest one whom he left untouched). (As mentioned in verses 59-61 of Surah 21, the people learnt that Ibraheem was responsible for the act.)

Tafsir (excerpt) — Tafsir Usmani

Smashing the idols: that is, striking them hard, he broke them to pieces. This story has probably already been told in detail earlier, in Surah Al-Anbya.
