Transliteration:( Uffil lakum wa limaa ta'budoona min doonil laah; afalaa ta'qiloon )
"Woe upon you and those deities, which you worship besides Allah, do you then have no wisdom? [98]"
From this verse, we learn that a Prophet does not fear people. As Allah says:
“They have no fear” (Surah Yunus: Verse 62).
On the path of Allah, Prophets show no regard for worldly status—not for kings, fathers, or relatives. See how Hazrat Ibrahim (peace be upon him) stood alone, fearlessly addressing the disbelievers, rebuking them directly.
His statement, "Fie on you", is a clear example of prophetic firmness. This manner of rebuke and stern warning is part of his sunnah, and is echoed in Allah’s command:
“And be strict to them” (Surah At-Tawbah: Verse 73).
Hence, those who preach that everyone should be treated only as brothers, regardless of belief, should take serious heed from the bold stance of Hazrat Ibrahim (peace be upon him) in defence of pure monotheism.
