I know that the Prophet came to preach Islam and to rid the Arab world at that time of Paganism, and even told the people to stop worshiping idols. I would just like to know did the Prophet or any of the Sahaba destroy the idols themselves during that time? Is there any documented evidence or hadith about this? If so, it is not a Sunnah to destroy idols that we currently see around us? Especially for muslims in India?
