ٱلْأَنْبِيَاء : ١٨

  • بَلۡ Nay
  • نَقۡذِفُ We hurl
  • بِٱلۡحَقِّ the truth
  • عَلَى against
  • ٱلۡبَٰطِلِ [the] falsehood
  • فَيَدۡمَغُهُۥ and it breaks its head
  • فَإِذَا behold
  • هُوَ it (is)
  • زَاهِقٞۚ vanishing
  • وَلَكُمُ And for you
  • ٱلۡوَيۡلُ (is) destruction
  • مِمَّا for what
  • تَصِفُونَ you ascribe
Rather, We dash the truth upon falsehood, and it destroys it,1 and thereupon it departs. And for you is destruction from that which you describe.

Literally, "strikes its brain," disabling or killing it.

[880] Of untruth concerning Allāh, particularly here, the claim that He has a son or other "partner" in divinity.

Nay, but We hurl, We cast, the truth, faith, against falsehood, disbelief, and it obliterates it, and behold, it vanishes, disappears (damaghahu, 'it obliterates it', actually means 'it struck the brain with a blow', [a blow] which is fatal). And for you, O disbelievers of Mecca, there shall be woe, severe chastisement, for what you ascribe, to God, of mate or child.
