And then there was Abu Jahl Ibn Hishaam and his saying to the Prophet :ﷺ ‘You had<br />
better stop insulting our gods or we will insult your God whom you worship.’ Regarding<br />
this, <strong>Al</strong>laah تعاىل sent revelation saying:<br />
﴿وَّلَ ُتَسبُّواُالَّذِينَُيَد ع ونَُمِنُد ونُِاللَّهُِفَيَسبُّواُاللَّهَُعَد و اُبِغَريُِعِل م ﴾<br />
{And insult not those whom they (disbelievers) worship besides <strong>Al</strong>laah, lest they<br />
insult <strong>Al</strong>laah wrongfully without knowledge.} [Surah al-An`aam (6): 108] 273<br />
Ibn Is-ḥaaq said: “From what we were informed, the Messenger of <strong>Al</strong>laah ﷺ sat<br />
down in al-Masjid (al-Ḥaraam) with al-Waleed Ibn al-Mugheerah. <strong>Al</strong>-Naḍhr Ibn al-<br />
Ḥaarith came and sat with them; in that gathering, there were several men from<br />
Quraish.<br />
The Messenger of <strong>Al</strong>laah ﷺ spoke, but al-Naḍhr argued with him. The Messenger of<br />
<strong>Al</strong>laah ﷺ then addressed al-Naḍhr and ultimately silenced him. Then he ﷺ recited<br />
to them:<br />
﴿إِنَّك م ُوَمَاُتَع ب د ونَُمِنُد ونُِاللَّهُِحَصَب ُجَهَنَّمَُأَنت م َُلََاُوَارِد ونَُ*ُلَو ُكَانَُهَى ؤ ّلَ ءُِآَلَِة ُمَُّاُوَرَد وهَاُُۖوَك لٌُّ<br />
فِيهَاُخَالِد ونَُ*َُلَ م ُفِيهَاُزَفِري ُوَه م ُفِيهَاُّلَُُيَس مَع ونَ﴾<br />
{Certainly! You (disbelievers) and that which you are worshipping now besides<br />
<strong>Al</strong>laah, are (but) fuel for Hell! (Surely), you will enter it. Had these (idols, etc.) been<br />
Aalihah (gods), they would not have entered there (Hell), and all of them will abide<br />
therein. Therein breathing out with deep sighs and roaring will be their portion, and<br />
therein they will hear not.} [Surah al-Anbiyaa’ (21): 98-100]<br />
The Messenger of <strong>Al</strong>laah then arose just as `Abdullaah Ibn al-Zaba`ra al-Sahmee<br />
approached and sat down. <strong>Al</strong>-Waleed Ibn al-Mugheerah spoke to him (`Abdullaah Ibn<br />
al-Zaba`ra): ‘By <strong>Al</strong>laah, al-Naḍhr Ibn al-Ḥaarith’s foregoing argument with Ibn `Abdul<br />
273 (Shaikh al-<strong>Al</strong>baanee said): “It is reported by Ibn Hishaam in his “al-<strong>Seerah</strong>” (1/383). And he reported all of them<br />
in “Mu`allaq” form (i.e. suspending, without a chain of narration), like the rest of the succeeding narrations from<br />
him in this chapter. This narration has two supporting chains which Ibn Jareer has reported in his “Tafseer”<br />
(7/309). One is from the route of `<strong>Al</strong>ee Ibn Talḥah, from Ibn `Abbaas, same like the above narration, but there is<br />
no mention of Abu Jahl in it. The narrators of this narration are reliable, except for the interruption between Ibn<br />
Talḥah and Ibn `Abbaas. The other is from the route of al-Suddee, but it is “Mursal” (hurried), and longer than this<br />
narration. In this narration there is the mention of Abu Jahl and others from the polytheists, but the chain of this<br />
narration is “Ḍha`eef”.<br />
