ahmad:1763Wakīʿ > Sufyān > ʿAbd al-Malik b. ʿUmayr > ʿAbdullāh b. al-Ḥārith > al-ʿAbbās b. ʿAbd al-Muṭṭalib

He said, "O Messenger of Allah, your uncle Abu Talib used to protect and benefit you." He (Prophet Muhammad) said, "Indeed, he is in the lowest depths of Hell. If it were not for me, he would have been in the very bottom of Hell."  

أحمد:١٧٦٣حَدَّثَنَا وَكِيعٌ حَدَّثَنَا سُفْيَانُ عَنْ عَبْدِ الْمَلِكِ بْنِ عُمَيْرٍ عَنْ عَبْدِ اللهِ بْنِ الْحَارِثِ عَنِ الْعَبَّاسِ بْنِ عَبْدِ الْمُطَّلِبِ

أَنَّهُ قَالَ يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ عَمُّكَ أَبُو طَالِبٍ كَانَ يَحُوطُكَ وَيَنْفَعُكَ قَالَ إِنَّهُ فِي ضَحْضَاحٍ مِنَ النَّارِ وَلَوْلا أَنَا كَانَ فِي الدَّرْكِ الْأَسْفَلِ

ʿAbbas bin ʿAbdul Muttalib said, "O Messenger of Allah ﷺ! Did you benefit Abu Talib with anything as he used to protect and take care of you, and used to become angry for you?" The Prophet ﷺ said, "Yes, he is in a shallow place of Fire. Were it not for me, he would have been in the bottom-most depth of the Fire."

Messenger of Allah, have you benefited Abu Talib in any way for he defended you and was fervent in your defence? The Messenger of Allah (may peace he upon him) said: Yes; he would be in the most shallow part of the Fire and were not for me, he would have been in the bottom-most depth of Hell.
