I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'the arrow' is the definition.
(quarrel is a kind of arrow)

I don't understand how the rest of the clue works.

(Other definitions for quarrel that I've seen before include "Argument; arrow" , "Angry disagreement" , "A row or major difference" , "Angry argument" , "Spat" .)

I've seen this clue in The Irish News.
