Opposition from the Star-Worshippers:
This belief was ingrained in every fiber of that nation that the planets have effects on human life, both individually and collectively. Then, imaginary statues of the spirits of these planets were installed in temples and worshipped; considering them as owners of benefit and harm, offerings and sacrifices were presented before them in an attempt to please them. Their entire lives, from head to toe, had become attached to this system. In front of them, the expression of disavowal by Sayyiduna Ibrahim ؑ from all these idols and statues, and declaring the entire nation as misguided, was akin to disturbing a hornet’s nest. Therefore, the entire nation began to argue, debate, and oppose him. Sayyiduna Ibrahim ؑ openly told them that of all the deities whom you consider partners in Allah’s authority and control, I am not prepared to accept even a single one of them. I consider only Allah as the owner of my life and death, health and wellness, prosperity and adversity. And I do not consider anyone to be even the slightest partner in His authority.
