Terah

( - )

He lived in "Ur of the Chaldees," where his son Haran died (leaving behind his son Lot). Terah then migrated with Abraham and Lot (his grandson), with their families, from Ur, intending to go with them to Canaan. However he stayed in Harran (with son Nahor), where he died at the age of two hundred and five years.

Terah once went away and left Abraham to mind the store. A woman came with a plateful of flour and asked Abraham to offer it to the idols. Abraham took a stick, broke the idols, and put the stick in the largest idol’s hand. When Terah returned, he demanded that Abraham explain what he had done. Abraham told Terah that the idols fought among themselves and the largest broke the others with the stick. “Why do you make sport of me?” Terah cried, “Do they have any knowledge?” Abraham replied, “Listen to what you are saying!” Terah then delivered Abraham to King Nimrod for punishment. (Midrash Genesis Rabbah 38:13.)

In several places the Quran depicts the story of Abraham; Ibrahim, And his father who is named Tarekh. The story is much similar to the Jewish tradition; Azar (Ibrahim's Uncle) is a wicked polytheist who's occupation is carving wooden Idols for worship.
