[Machine] The Quraysh did not deny the prayer of Duha, but they denied its timing. "The Messenger of Allah, peace be upon him, would disperse to the valleys to pray in solitude or in pairs when the time of Asr prayer came." Tuleib bin Umair and Hataab bin Abd Shams went to pray in the Asjnad valley, some of them looking at others, when Ibn Al-Asaydee and Ibn Al-Qabtiyyah attacked them as they were committing immoral acts. They pelted them with stones for some time until they left. They then went to Abu Jahl, Abu Lahab, and Uqbah bin Abi Muayt and told them the news. They gathered and set out to attack them at dawn, while they were leaving in the darkness of the morning to perform ablution and pray. While they were in the valleys, Abu Jahl, Uqbah, Abu Lahab, and some of their foolish companions attacked and beat them. The companions of the Messenger of Allah, peace be upon him, defended themselves, spoke about Islam, called out to them, and defended themselves. Tuleib bin Umair went to attack Abu Jahl, hitting him and injuring him. They took hold of him and bound him. Abu Lahab stood in front of him to protect him. He was his nephew. It was said to Arwa bint Abdul Muttalib, "Do you not see your son Tuleib following Muhammad, becoming a target for him?" Arwa had already converted to Islam. She said, "The best days for Tuleib are those when he is defending his cousin, who has brought the truth from Allah the Exalted." They said, "Have you followed Muhammad?" She said, "Yes." Some of them went to Abu Lahab and informed him. He approached her and said, "How amazing that you, along with your allegiance to Muhammad, have left the religion of Abdul Muttalib." She replied, "It was like that. So stand with your nephew and support him. Prevent him. If his situation becomes evident, then you will be in the best position, should you wish to join him or remain on your own religion. If you do not, then you would have excused your nephew." He said, "We have enough power among the Arabs altogether." Then they said, "He has come with a new religion." He said, "Then Abu Lahab left, saying, 'I have not found her Islam except in Al-Waqidi's account.'"
