~Between the Siege of Ta'if and the Battle of Tabuk, 9 AH · 9 AH
In the same period between the Siege of Ta'if and the Battle of Tabuk, the Prophet ﷺ sent Ali ibn Abi Talib RA to destroy a large idol called al-Fuls (الفلس), one of the mini-expeditions sent out in these months to destroy public idols now that the Prophet ﷺ's political authority extended across central Arabia.
One of several idol-destruction expeditions sent out in the months after the Conquest of Makkah and the Battle of Hunayn, once the Prophet ﷺ's political authority extended across central Arabia; scholars cite this timing against modern vigilantes who invoke such incidents to justify destroying the sacred sites of other faiths without lawful authority.
