Prophet's example of destroying idols and places

“Muslims who destroy the historical places or tear down the historical idols give the example of Prophet of Islam who, after the conquest of Makkah, had sent the Sahabas to different places to tear down the places of worship and idols. Is this correct and what is your comment on it?”Asked by Danish Fazl, Delhi

Maulana, agla sawal Dilli se kiya hai Danish Fazal Sahab ne aur unhon ne likha hai ke Muslims who destroy the historical places or raise down the historical idols give the example of Prophet of Islam who, after the conquest of Makkah, had sent the Sahabas to different places to raise down the places of worship and idols. Maulana, is this correct and what is your comment on it? Yaani yeh bilkul correct nahi hai. Yeh jo worshippers the jinhone khud banaya tha, woh Islam mein dakhil ho gaye. To ab woh jagah hai jahan unka koi purpose nahi raha. To unhon ne uthaya isko. Koi Islam ki taleem nahi hai ke but khaane ko uthao.

Aise koi na Quran mein, na Hadees mein. Quran o Hadees mein kahin bhi aisa nahi hai. Maulana, agla sawal Jodhpur, Rajasthan se kiya hai Muhammad Waqas Sahab ne aur unhon ne likha hai ke is duniya mein sab kuch Khuda ke ikhtiyar mein hai, chahe hawa ka chalna ho ya din aur raat ka badalna ya duniya mein aur bhi koi changes ka aana.
