Narrated Anas: On the day of Badr, the Prophet said, “Who will go and see what has happened to Abu Jahl?” Ibn Mas`ud went and found that the two sons of ‘Afra had struck him fatally. `Abdullah bin Mas`ud got hold of his beard and said, “‘Are you Abu Jahl?” He replied, “Can there be a man more superior to one whom his own folk have killed (or you have killed)?”
Hadith In Arabic Text :
حدثني محمد بن المثنى، حدثنا ابن أبي عدي، عن سليمان التيمي، عن أنس، رضى الله عنه قال قال النبي صلى الله عليه وسلم يوم بدر ” من ينظر ما فعل أبو جهل ”. فانطلق ابن مسعود، فوجده قد ضربه ابنا عفراء حتى برد، فأخذ بلحيته فقال أنت أبا جهل قال وهل فوق رجل قتله قومه أو قال قتلتموه.
