to destroy its head
The Prophets (21:18)
بَلْ نَقْذِفُ بِٱلْحَقِّ عَلَى ٱلْبَـٰطِلِ فَيَدْمَغُهُۥ فَإِذَا هُوَ زَاهِقٌۭ ۚ وَلَكُمُ ٱلْوَيْلُ مِمَّا تَصِفُونَ ١٨
Nay, but We hurl the true against the false, and it doth break its head and lo! it vanisheth. And yours will be woe for that which ye ascribe (unto Him).
— M. Pickthall
بلکہ ہم حق کو باطل پر ماریں گے تو وہ اس کا سر توڑ دے گا تو وہ دفعةًجاتا رہے گا اور تمھارے ليے ان باتوں سے بڑی خرابی ہے جو تم بیان کرتے ہو
— Maulana Wahiduddin Khan

Some salient examples from The Quran and Hadith:
...
Adam & Iblis
When Adam was appointed Khalifa, all angels were commanded to prostrate to him. Iblis (Satan) refused to prostrate to Adam. His arrogance and disobedience was exposed. The evidence was generated against him, and he is on a temporary permit to make as many of Adam's progeny follow him and go astray, as possible.

Abraham & The King
The Announcement of Hajj by Abraham
...
Moses & Pharaoh
The Pharaoh tried to kill all babies, yet adopted Moses and brought him up in his own palace.
The Pharaoh refused to believe Moses and let the Bani Israel go for three days to offer sacrifice in the desert. Allah سُبْحَانَهُ وَتَعَالَى parted the sea, rescued the Bani Israel from the slavery of The Pharaoh, and The Pharaoh was drowned in sea. He was saved in his dead body as a sign for latter times.
No ilah but Allah لا إله إلا الله
...
Muhammad ﷺ & Polytheist Mecca
The polytheists of Mecca tried to kill Muhammad ﷺ. They did not succeed.
The polytheists of Mecca waged wars against the State of Medina which was headed by Muhammad ﷺ. They lost many battles. In the first battle (The Battle of Badr), the leadership of Mecca was eliminated.
Eventually, Allah سُبْحَانَهُ وَتَعَالَى granted victory to Muhammad ﷺ and his followers, who were able to secure Mecca and purify Allah سُبْحَانَهُ وَتَعَالَى 's House of the idols the polytheists had placed there.
Allah سُبْحَانَهُ وَتَعَالَى 's worship was established all over the Arabian Peninsula, and beyond.
Allah سُبْحَانَهُ وَتَعَالَى 's Deen was established all over the Arabian Peninsula, and beyond.
The Excellent Uswah in Prophet Muhammad ﷺ
...
Muhammad & The Jews of Medina
The Jews of Medina refused to accept and pledge allegiance to the Messenger of Allah سُبْحَانَهُ وَتَعَالَى, His Last Prophet.
The Jews of Medina worked against him.
Eventually, they were rooted out, and exiled.
...
The True Messiah & The False Messiah
Jesus is the True Messiah.
The Jews did not accept him.
Allah سُبْحَانَهُ وَتَعَالَى raised Jesus to near Himself.
During end times, when the False Messiah will be ruling and deluding people, Allah سُبْحَانَهُ وَتَعَالَى will send the True Messiah Jesus to destroy the False Messiah.
Then, the world will know peace.

The Containment of Gog and Magog
Gog and Magog have historically corrupted the Earth.
Dhu al Qarnayn contained them behind an iron and copper wall.
The wall will remain in place till near end times, as a Mercy from Allah سُبْحَانَهُ وَتَعَالَى .
The Mighty Corrupters of The Earth
...
The Destruction of Gog and Magog
The Gog and Magog will remain contained behind the barrier built by Dhul al Qarnayn till almost end times.
Then, they will be allowed to break it and swarm the Earth.
They will spread much corruption.
People will be powerless against them.
Then, Allah سُبْحَانَهُ وَتَعَالَى will send a worm to destroy them.
...
The End of This World
Every person and every place has an expiry date.
Before the world is about to end, all believers will be granted death.
They will not have to suffer the terrible events leading to the end of the world.
Eventually, the mighty earthquake will destroy all civilisation.
Then the Hereafter will begin.
