[Machine] I approached Abu Jahl, who was lying on the ground, with an egg on top of him. He had a fine sword with him, while I had a severed sword. I placed my sword on his neck and recalled a time when he used to do the same to me in Makkah until his strength weakened. Then, I took his sword and raised his head. He asked, "Who's responsible for this? Was it for us or against us? Aren't you our shepherd in Makkah?" I replied by killing him. Then, I went to the Prophet ﷺ and informed him that I had killed Abu Jahl. The Prophet ﷺ said, "By Allah, did you kill him?" He swore by Allah three times and then went with me to see them and supplicated against them.  

انْتَهَيْتُ إِلَى أَبِي جَهْلٍ وَهُوَ صَرِيعٌ وَعَلَيْهِ بَيْضَةٌ وَمَعَهُ سَيْفٌ جَيِّدٌ وَمَعِي سَيْفٌ رَدِيٌّ فَجَعَلْتُ أَنْقُفُ رَأْسَهُ بِسَيْفِي وَأَذْكُرُ نَقْفًا كَانَ يَنْقُفُ رَأْسِي بِمَكَّةَ حَتَّى ضَعُفَتْ يَدُهُ فَأَخَذْتُ سَيْفَهُ فَرَفَعَ رَأْسَهُ فَقَالَ عَلَى مَنْ كَانَتِ الدَّبَرَةُ؟ أَكَانَتْ لَنَا أَوْ عَلَيْنَا؟ أَلَسْتَ رُوَيْعِيَنَا بِمَكَّةَ؟ قَالَ فَقَتَلْتُهُ ثُمَّ أَتَيْتُ النَّبِيَّ ﷺ فَقُلْتُ قَتَلْتُ أَبَا جَهْلٍ قَالَ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ آللَّهِ الَّذِي لَا إِلَهَ إِلَّا هُوَ قَتَلْتَهُ؟ فَاسْتَحْلَفَنِي ثَلَاثَ مَرَّاتٍ ثُمَّ قَامَ مَعِي إِلَيْهِمْ فَدَعَا عَلَيْهِمْ
