[Machine] I saw the Messenger of Allah, ﷺ , passing by in the alleys of Dhu al-Majaz, followed by people who said, "This is Muhammad ibn Abdullah ibn Abdul-Muttalib." There was a man with a handsome face and radiant complexion, with two buns of hair, following him in the alleys of Dhu al-Majaz, claiming that he is a false sorcerer. So, I asked, "Who is this?" They said, "This is his uncle, Abu Lahab."  

أحمد:١٦٠٢٦[قَالَ عَبْدُ اللهِ بْنُ أَحْمَدَ] حَدَّثَنِي مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ بَكَّارٍ قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ الرَّحْمَنِ بْنُ عَبْدِ اللهِ بْنِ ذَكْوَانَ عَنْ أَبِيهِ أَبِي الزِّنَادِ قَالَ رَأَيْتُ رَجُلًا يُقَالُ لَهُ رَبِيعَةُ بْنُ عِبَادٍ الدِّيلِيُّ قَالَ

رَأَيْتُ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ وَهُوَ يَمُرُّ فِي فِجَاجِ ذِي الْمَجَازِ إِلَّا أَنَّهُمْ يَتْبَعُونَهُ وَقَالُوا هَذَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ عَبْدِ اللهِ بْنِ عَبْدِ الْمُطَّلِبِ قَالَ وَرَجُلٌ أَحْوَلُ وَضِيءُ الْوَجْهِ ذُو غَدِيرَتَيْنِ يَتْبَعُهُ فِي فِجَاجِ ذِي الْمَجَازِ وَيَقُولُ إِنَّهُ صَابِئٌ كَاذِبٌ فَقُلْتُ مَنْ هَذَا؟ قَالُوا هَذَا عَمُّهُ أَبُو لَهَبٍ
