Home Hadith Hadith 3690
The Prophet (ﷺ) recited Surat An-Najam and prostrated, and there was nobody who did not prostrate then
except a man whom I saw taking a handful of pebbles, lifting it, and prostrating on it. He then said,
"This is sufficient for me." No doubt I saw him killed as a disbeliever afterwards.
Sahih al-Bukhari Book 63, Hadith 78

I came to the Prophet (ﷺ) while he was leaning against his sheet cloak in the shade of the Ka`ba. We were
suffering greatly from the pagans in those days. i said (to him). "Will you invoke Allah (to help us)?"
He sat down with a red face and said, "(A believer among) those who were before you used to be
combed with iron combs so that nothing of his flesh or nerves would remain on his bones; yet that
would never make him desert his religion. A saw might be put over the parting of his head which
would be split into two parts, yet all that would never make him abandon his religion. Allah will
surely complete this religion (i.e. Islam) so that a traveler from Sana to Hadra-maut will not be afraid
of anybody except Allah." (The sub-narrator, Baiyan added, "Or the wolf, lest it should harm his
sheep.")

While the Prophet (ﷺ) was prostrating, surrounded by some of Quraish, `Uqba bin Abi Mu'ait brought the
intestines (i.e. Abdominal contents) of a camel and put them over the back of the Prophet. The Prophet (ﷺ)
did not raise his head, (till) Fatima, came and took it off his back and cursed the one who had done the
harm. The Prophet (ﷺ) said, "O Allah! Destroy the chiefs of Quraish, Abu Jahl bin Hisham, `Utba bin
Rabi`al, Shaba bin Rabi`a, Umaiya bin Khalaf or Ubai bin Khalaf." (The sub-narrator Shu`ba, is not
sure of the last name.) I saw these people killed on the day of Badr battle and thrown in the well
except Umaiya or Ubai whose body parts were mutilated but he was not thrown in the well.
