[Machine] When Satan saw what the angels were doing to the idolaters on the day of Badr, he feared that he would be killed. So, Al-Harith bin Hisham held onto him, thinking he was Suraqah bin Malik, and he stabbed him in the chest. Then Satan threw him off and escaped until he threw himself into the sea and raised his hands, saying, "I ask for your protection, O Allah, from your glance upon me." He feared that the killing would reach him. Abu Jahl bin Hisham approached and said, "O people, do not be defeated by the betrayal of Suraqah to you, for he had an appointment with Muhammad ﷺ and be not terrified by the killing of Umayyah, Shaybah, and Al-Walid, for they have hastened. By Al-Lat and Al-Uzza, we will not retreat until we tie them with ropes. I will not lose a single man among you. Rather, take them as captives until you come to know their evil deeds from their separation from you and their rejection of Al-Lat and Al-Uzza." Then Abu Jahl said, mimicking.
لَمَّا رَأَى إِبْلِيسُ مَا تَفْعَلُ الْمَلَائِكَةُ بِالْمُشْرِكِينَ يَوْمَ بَدْرٍ أَشْفَقَ أنْ يَخْلُصَ الْقَتْلُ إِلَيْهِ فَتَشَبَّثَ بِهِ الْحَارِثُ بْنُ هِشَامٍ وَهُوَ يَظُنُّ أَنَّهُ سُرَاقَةَ بْنَ مَالِكٍ فَوَكَزَ فِي صَدْرِ الْحَارِثِ فَأَلْقَاهُ ثُمَّ خَرَجَ هَارِبًا حَتَّى أَلْقَى نَفْسَهُ فِي الْبَحْرِ وَرَفَعَ يَدَيْهِ فَقَالَ إِنِّي أَسْأَلُكَ نَظْرَتَكَ إِيَّايَ وَخَافَ أنْ يَخْلُصَ إِلَيْهِ الْقَتْلُ فَأَقْبَلَ أَبُو جَهْلِ بْنِ هِشَامٍ فَقَالَ يَا مَعْشَرَ النَّاسِ لَا يَهْزِمَنَّكُمْ خُذْلَانُ سُرَاقَةَ إِيَّاكُمْ فَإِنَّهُ كَانَ عَلَى مِيعَادٍ مِنْ مُحَمَّدٍ ﷺ وَلَا يَهُولَنَّكُمْ قَتْلُ عُتْبَةَ وَشَيْبَةَ وَالْوَلِيدِ فَإِنَّهُمْ قَدْ عَجَّلُوا فَوَالَّلَاتِ وَالْعُزَّى لَا نَرْجِعُ حَتَّى نُقْرِنَهُمْ بِالْحِبَالِ وَلَا أُلْفِيَنَّ رَجُلًا مِنْكُمْ قَتَلَ مِنْهُمْ رَجُلًا وَلَكِنْ خُذُوهُمْ أَخْذًا حَتَّى تُعَرِّفُوهُمْ سُوءَ صَنِيعِهِمْ مِنْ مُفَارَقَتِهِمْ إِيَّاكُمْ ورَغْبَتِهِمْ عَنِ اللَّاتِ وَالْعُزَّى ثُمَّ قَالَ أَبُو جَهْلٍ مُتَمَثِّلًا
