muslim:1794aʿAbdullāh b. ʿUmar b. Muḥammad b. Abān al-Juʿfī > ʿAbd al-Raḥīm / Ibn Sulaymān > Zakariyyāʾ > Abū Isḥāq > ʿAmr b. Maymūn al-Awdī > Ibn Masʿūd

While the Messenger of Allah ﷺ was saying his prayer near the Ka'ba and Abu Jahl with his companions was sitting (near by), Abu Jahl said, referring to the she-camel that had been slaughtered the previous day: Who will rise to fetch the foetus of the she-camel of so and so, and place it between the shoulders of Muhammad when he goes down in prostration (a posture in prayer). The one most accursed among the people got up, brought the foetus and, when the Prophet ﷺ went down in prostration, placed it between his shoulders. Then they laughed at him and some of them leaned upon the others with laughter. And I stood looking. If I had the power, I would have thrown it away from the back of the Messenger of Allah ﷺ. The Prophet ﷺ had bent down his head in prostration and did not raise it, until a man went (to his house) and informed (his daughter) Fatima, who was a young girl (at that time) (about this ugly incident). She came and removed (the filthy thing) from him. Then she turned towards them rebuking them (the mischief-mongers). When the Prophet ﷺ had finished his prayer, he invoked God's imprecations upon them in a loud voice. When he prayed, he prayed thrice, and when he asked for God's blessings, he asked thrice. Then he said thrice: O Allah, it is for Thee to deal with the Quraish. When they heard his voice, laughter vanished from them and they feared his malediction. Then he said: O God, it is for Thee to deal with Abu Jahl b. Hisham, 'Utba b. Rabi'a, Shaiba b. Rabi'a. Walid b. Uqba, Umayya b. Khalaf, Uqba b. Abu Mu'ait (and he mentioned the name of the seventh person. which I did not remember). By One Who sent Muhammad with truth, I saw (all) those he had named lying slain on the Day of Badr. Their dead bodies were dragged to be thrown into a pit near the battlefield. Abu Ishiq had said that the name of Walid b. 'Uqba has been wrongly mentioned in this tradition.

bukhari:240ʿAbdān from my father > Shuʿbah > Abū Isḥāq > ʿAmr b. Maymūn > ʿAbdullāh

While Messenger of Allah ﷺ was prostrating (as stated below). Narrated ʿAbdullah bin Masʿud: Once the Prophet ﷺ was offering prayers at the Kaʿba. Abu Jahl was sitting with some of his companions. One of them said to the others, "Who amongst you will bring the Abdominal contents (intestines, etc.) of a camel of Bani so and so and put it on the back of Muhammad, when he prostrates?" The most unfortunate of them got up and brought it. He waited till the Prophet ﷺ prostrated and then placed it on his back between his shoulders. I was watching but could not do any thing. I wish I had some people with me to hold out against them. They started laughing and falling on one another. Messenger of Allah ﷺ was in prostration and he did not lift his head up till Fatima (Prophet's daughter) came and threw that (camel's Abdominal contents) away from his back. He raised his head and said thrice, "O Allah! Punish Quraish." So it was hard for Abu Jahl and his companions when the Prophet invoked Allah against them as they had a conviction that the prayers and invocations were accepted in this city (Mecca). The Prophet ﷺ said, "O Allah! Punish Abu Jahl, ʿUtba bin Rabiʿa, Shaiba bin Rabiʿa, Al-Walid bin ʿUtba, Umaiya bin Khalaf, and ʿUqba bin Al Mu'it [??] (and he mentioned the seventh whose name I cannot recall). By Allah in Whose Hands my life is, I saw the dead bodies of those persons who were counted by Messenger of Allah ﷺ in the Qalib (one of the wells) of Badr.

ʿAbdullah bin Masʿud said, "While Messenger of Allah ﷺ was praying beside the Kaʿba, there were some Quraish people sitting in a gathering. One of them said, 'Don't you see this (who does deeds just to show off)? Who amongst you can go and bring the dung, blood and the Abdominal contents (intestines, etc.) of the slaughtered camels of the family of so and so and then wait till he prostrates and put that in between his shoulders?' The most unfortunate amongst them (ʿUqba bin Abi Mu'ait) went (and brought them) and when Messenger of Allah ﷺ prostrated, he put them between his shoulders. The Prophet remained in prostration and they laughed so much so that they fell on each other. A passerby went to Fatima, who was a young girl in those days. She came running and the Prophet ﷺ was still in prostration. She removed them and cursed upon the Quraish on their faces. When Messenger of Allah ﷺ completed his prayer, he said, 'O Allah! Take revenge on Quraish.' He said so thrice and added, 'O Allah! take revenge on ʿAmr bin Hisham, ʿUtba bin Rabiʿa, Shaiba bin Rabiʿa, Al-Walid bin ʿUtba, Umaiya bin Khalaf, ʿUqba bin Abi Mu'ait and ʿUmar a bin Al-Walid." ʿAbdullah added, "By Allah! I saw all of them dead in the battle field on the day of Badr and they were dragged and thrown in the Qalib (a well) at Badr: Messenger of Allah ﷺ then said, 'Allah's curse has descended upon the people of the Qalib (well).
