English narration

Narrated by أنس بن مالك الأنصاري

On the day of Badr, the Prophet (ﷺ) said, "Who will go and see what has happened to Abu Jahl?" Ibn Mas`ud went and found that the two sons of 'Afra had struck him fatally. `Abdullah bin Mas`ud got hold of his beard and said, "'Are you Abu Jahl?" He replied, "Can there be a man more superior to one whom his own folk have killed (or you have killed)?"

مَنْ يَنْظُرُ مَا فَعَلَ أَبُو جَهْلٍ

" , فَانْطَلَقَ ابْنُ مَسْعُودٍ فَوَجَدَهُ قَدْ ضَرَبَهُ ابْنَا عَفْرَاءَ حَتَّى بَرَدَ , فَأَخَذَ بِلِحْيَتِهِ ، فَقَالَ : أَنْتَ أَبَا جَهْلٍ ، قَالَ : وَهَلْ فَوْقَ رَجُلٍ قَتَلَهُ قَوْمُهُ ؟ أَوْ قَالَ : قَتَلْتُمُوهُ . حَدَّثَنِي ابْنُ الْمُثَنَّى ، أَخْبَرَنَا مُعَاذُ بْنُ مُعَاذٍ ، حَدَّثَنَا سُلَيْمَانُ ، أَخْبَرَنَا أَنَسُ بْنُ مَالِكٍ نَحْوَهُ .
