Al Anbiya V.51-82

No Communication

He said, “Rather, this — the largest of them — did it, so ask them, if they should [be able to] speak.” [Al Anbiya:63]
Ibrahim (as) broke the idols into pieces while the people of his town were gone and when they returned they asked him if he did it. He said to ask the biggest who he did not break. Upon this they thought and then came back and said:
Then they reversed themselves, [saying], “You have already known that these do not speak!”
He said, “Then do you worship instead of Allāh that which does not benefit you at all or harm you? [Al Anbiya:65-66]
For us there is a lesson to be learnt. How can we worship idols when we can see they can not even talk or express themselves?
