Ahmadi, don't you believe that prophet Muhammad destroyed the idols?

Yes he destroyed anything that was against his beliefs, he wasn't very nice at all.

What is your answer to it? Please
It should also be answered by the Judaism people and the Christianity people, it is first related to them. Right? Please
Regards
The scriptures give no instructions about it. They do not say one must worship a physical representation and they do not say that one must not do this.
The practice was developed by Hindu saints and wise persons. This practice has been an immensely effective method for developing a sense of devotion and connection with the Divine.

I thought prophet Ibrahim is one of the prophets of Islam.
So Moses was a hypocrite?, sure he broke those tablets but went and got some more.

Everything, they tell us to worship a god that is nothing but jealous, with a few good things mixed through it.

"The scriptures give no instructions about it"
Veda gives no commandment to be superstitious. It is the people who do it on their own. Please

If you define idol as I stated Muslims do in my previous post then certainly crosses, crucifixes, icons, statues and sacramentals are all idols. But the key phrase here is "as Muslims do". Since someone inclined to wear a crucifix is unlikely to be a Muslim, they're not likely to care about what Islam has to say about what does and does not constituent an idol. (Or whether or not idolatry is even wrong in the first place).

Certainly.
Moses is one of the biggest prophet/messenger of G-d in Quran. Please

You know Moses was a Jew right, led the Jews out of Egypt, then to Israel?

I don't know what is the benefit of making the idols?
I don't believe that Muslims worked in destroying the idols and there's
no one verse in the quran that instructs Muslims to destroy the idols otherwise
we can never see any idols existing in the Islamic territories while we can
see many idols in Egypt till this day.

@paarsurrey I'm sorry to trouble you, but I prefer if you can answer my question. Do you or not recognize that prophet Muhammad destroyed idols?
