The Holy Quran 29:24 — Surah Al-'Ankabut

Arabic text

فَمَا كَانَ جَوَابَ قَوْمِهِۦٓ إِلَّآ أَن قَالُوا۟ ٱقْتُلُوهُ أَوْ حَرِّقُوهُ فَأَنجَىٰهُ ٱللَّهُ مِنَ ٱلنَّارِ ۚ إِنَّ فِى ذَٰلِكَ لَـَٔايَـٰتٍ لِّقَوْمٍ يُؤْمِنُونَ

Translation

(When Ibraheem عليه الصلاة والسلام convincingly proved to this people that their idols were helpless, as mentioned in verses 58-67 of Surah 21), The only reply (answer) that his people could give was to say, "Kill him or burn him!" Then Allaah saved him from the fire (by commanding the fire to be cool and peaceful for him). Undoubtedly, there are certainly (clear) signs in this for people who have Imaan.

Tafsir (excerpt) — التفسير الميسر

فلم يكن جواب قوم إبراهيم له إلا أن قال بعضهم لبعض: اقتلوه أو حرِّقوه بالنار، فألقوه فيها، فأنجاه الله منها، وجعلها عليه بردًا وسلامًا، إن في إنجائنا لإبراهيم من النار لأدلة وحججًا لقوم يصدِّقون الله ويعملون بشرعه.
