Sayyiduna Abdullah bin Mas'ud (may Allah be pleased with him) narrates: On the day of Badr I came to Abu Jahl. His leg had been struck and he was lying wounded, and he was keeping people away from himself with his sword. I said: "All praise belongs to Allah Almighty, who has disgraced you, O enemy of Allah!" He said: "I am only a man whose own people have killed him." Sayyiduna Abdullah (may Allah be pleased with him) says: I tried to strike him with my sword, which was not very large; it struck his hand and his sword fell. Then I took it and struck him with it until I killed him. Then I left and came to the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him), hurrying along in joy, and I told him about it. The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "By Allah, besides whom there is no god? (Is this news true?)" The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) repeated this question three times, and I said: "By Allah, besides whom there is no god (this news is true)." Then the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) came walking with me, stood by his body, and said: "O enemy of Allah, all praise belongs to Allah Almighty, who has disgraced you." (Then he (peace and blessings be upon him) said:) "This is the Pharaoh of this Ummah."
