Sayyiduna Abdullah bin Mas'ud (may Allah be pleased with him) says: When Abu Jahl was dragged to the pit, the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "Had Abu Talib been alive, he would have known that our swords have clung to our fingertips (that is, they have not left our hands)."
Al-Bazzar recorded it. Its chain contains Hibban bin Ali, who is da'if (weak), though he has been declared trustworthy.
Al-Tabarani recorded it and added these words: Abu Talib said: "You have spoken falsely, by the House of Allah! If what I see comes to pass, our swords will cling to our fingertips, and (our) men in coats of mail will rise against you as water-carrying camels rise on the road of Halahil." Ibn Munadhir says: Both are the same; people have narrated the word as "Halahil" and also as "Jalajil".
