Sayyiduna Abdullah bin Mas'ud (may Allah be pleased with him) narrates: The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "O Allah! Grant Islam strength through Umar bin al-Khattab or through Abu Jahl bin Hisham." So Allah Almighty accepted the supplication of the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) in favour of Sayyiduna Umar bin al-Khattab (may Allah be pleased with him), and through him He made Islam firm and demolished the idols.
Tabarani recorded it in al-Mu'jam al-Kabir, and in al-Mu'jam al-Awsat he recorded something similar in abridged form, in which the words are: "Support Islam." The narrators of al-Mu'jam al-Kabir are the narrators of the Sahih, except for Mujalid bin Sa'id, and he has been declared thiqah (trustworthy).
