[Machine] Indeed, I witnessed alongside my father a young man who was looking at the Messenger of Allah ﷺ who was leading the tribes, and behind him was a man who looked older and had a radiant face with a prominent lock of hair standing behind the Messenger of Allah ﷺ . The Messenger of Allah ﷺ stood in front of the tribe and said, "O sons of so-and-so, indeed I am the Messenger of Allah ﷺ to you, I command you to worship Allah alone and not associate anything with Him, and that you believe in me and support me until I fulfill what Allah has sent me with." When he finished his speech, the man behind him said, "O sons of so-and-so, he wants you to abandon your idols, such as Al-Lat and Al-Uzza, and your allies from the people of Bani Malik bin Uqaysh, and to abandon the innovations and misguidance that he has brought. So do not listen to him or follow him." So I asked my father, "Who is this?" He said, "This is his paternal uncle, Abu Lahab."
إِنِّي لَمَعَ أَبِي رَجُلٌ شَابٌّ أَنْظُرُ إِلَى رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ يَتْبَعُ الْقَبَائِلَ وَوَرَاءَهُ رَجُلٌ أَحْوَلُ وَضِيءٌ ذُو جُمَّةٍ يَقِفُ رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ عَلَى الْقَبِيلَةِ فَيَقُولُ «يَا بَنِي فُلَانٍ إِنِّي رَسُولُ اللهِ إِلَيْكُمْ آمُرُكُمْ أنْ تَعْبُدُوا اللهَ وَلَا تُشْرِكُوا بِهِ شَيْئًا وَأَنْ تُصَدِّقُونِي وتَمْنَعُونِي حَتَّى أُنَفِّذَ عَنِ اللهِ مَا بَعَثَنِي بِهِ» فَإِذَا فَرَغَ مِنْ مَقَالَتِهِ قَالَ الْآخَرُ مِنْ خَلْفَهِ يَا بَنِي فُلَانٍ إِنَّ هَذَا يُرِيدُ مِنْكُمْ أنْ تَسْلُخُوا اللَّاتَ وَالْعُزَّى وَحُلَفَاءَكُمْ مِنَ الْحَيِّ مِنْ بَنِي مَالِكِ بْنِ أُقَيْشٍ إِلَى مَا جَاءَ بِهِ مِنَ الْبِدْعَةِ وَالضَّلَالَةِ فَلَا تَسْمَعُوا وَلَا تَتَّبِعُوهُ فَقُلْتُ لِأَبِي مَنْ هَذَا؟ قَالَ هَذَا عَمُّهُ أَبُو لَهَبٍ
