Tafsir of Al-Anbiya' 21:52

When he said to his father and his people: "What are these images, to which you are devoted!'' This is the guidance which he had been given during his youth: his denunciation of his people's worship of idols instead of Allah. Ibrahim said:

ما هذه التماثيل التي أنتم لها عاكفون

"What are these images, to which you are devoted!'' meaning, which you worship with such devotion

قالوا وجدنا آباءنا لها عابدين
