This is evidence that <strong>Al</strong>laah تعاىل protected the Prophet ﷺ through his uncle, even<br />
though he (Abu Ṭaalib) was in disagreement with the Prophet ﷺ in regards to his<br />
Deen. And <strong>Al</strong>laah protected him when his uncle was not there. <strong>Al</strong>laah Will is final and<br />
unchallenged.<br />
Imaam Aḥmad and al-Bukhaaree reported that Ibn `Abbaas رضي ُاهللُعنهما said: “Abu Jahl<br />
said: ‘If I see Muḥammad praying at the Ka`bah, I will tread on his neck.’ When the<br />
Prophet ﷺ heard of that, he ﷺ said: ❝If he does so, the Angels will snatch him<br />
away.❞” 202<br />
In another narration from Ibn `Abbaas ُاهلل ُعنهما :رضي “The Prophet was performing the<br />
Salaah when Abu Jahl came to him and said: ‘Have I not forbidden you from this? Have<br />
I not forbidden you from this? Have I not forbidden you from this?’ The Prophet turned<br />
and scolded him. So Abu Jahl said: ‘[Why are you scolding me O Muḥammad?] You<br />
know that there is no man with more helpers to call upon than me.’ So <strong>Al</strong>laah<br />
revealed:<br />
تباركُوُ تعاىل<br />
﴿فَل يَد عُُنَادِيَهُُ*ُسَنَدُعُُالزَّبَانِيَةَُ﴾<br />
{Then, let him call upon his council (of helpers), We will call the guards of Hell (to deal<br />
with him)!} [Surah al-`<strong>Al</strong>aq (96): 17-18]”<br />
So Ibn `Abbaas رضيُاهللُعنهما added: “By <strong>Al</strong>laah, if he had called his council, then the guards<br />
of Hell would have seized him.” 203<br />
Abu Hurairah رضي ُاهلل ُعنه reported: “Abu Jahl asked (the people) whether Muḥammad<br />
placed his face (on the ground) in their presence. It was said to him: ‘Yes.’ He said: ‘By<br />
Laat and `Uzza. If I were to see him do that, I would trample his neck, or I would smear<br />
his face with dust. He came to <strong>Al</strong>laah’s Messenger ﷺ as he was engaged in prayer<br />
course, until <strong>Al</strong>laah has made me victorious, or I perish therein, I would not abandon it.❞ The Prophet ﷺ got<br />
up, and as he turned away, his uncle called him and said: “Come back, my nephew,” and when he came back, he<br />
said: “Go and preach what you please, for by <strong>Al</strong>laah I will never forsake you.” [But as mentioned earlier, it is<br />
“Ḍha`eef”, with this wording.]<br />
