Majma al-Zawaid — Hadith 13871

Sayyiduna al-Abbas bin Abd al-Muttalib (may Allah be pleased with him) narrates: One day I was in the mosque when Abu Jahl came and said: "I have vowed to Allah Almighty that if I see Sayyiduna Muhammad (peace and blessings be upon him) in prostration, I will put my foot on his neck." Sayyiduna al-Abbas (may Allah be pleased with him) says: I got up from there, came to the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) and told him what Abu Jahl had said. The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) came out in a state of anger and went to the mosque. He was in too much of a hurry to enter by the door, so he climbed over the wall. I said: "This is a day of evil." I too tied my waist-wrapper and went after the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him). The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) entered reciting this surah: "Read in the name of your Lord who created; He created man from a clinging clot." When he reached the part that concerned Abu Jahl: "Indeed, man transgresses because he sees himself self-sufficient," someone said to Abu Jahl: "O Abu al-Hakam, here is Muhammad (peace and blessings be upon him)." He said: "Do you not see what I see? By Allah, the horizon of the sky has been blocked before me." The narrator said: When the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) reached the end of the surah, he went into prostration.
At-Tabarani recorded it in al-Mu'jam al-Kabir and al-Mu'jam al-Awsat; its chain contains Ishaq bin Abi Farwah, who is matruk (abandoned).
