Al-Mu'jam al-Awsat 8691 — One day I was in the mosque when Abu Jahl

وَبِهِ : حَدَّثَنِي اللَّيْثُ ، عَنْ إِسْحَاقَ بْنِ عَبْدِ اللهِ بْنِ أَبِي فَرْوَةَ ، عَنْ أَبَانَ بْنِ صَالِحٍ ، عَنْ عَلِيِّ بْنِ عَبْدِ اللهِ بْنِ عَبَّاسٍ ، عَنْ أَبِيهِ ، عَنِ الْعَبَّاسِ بْنِ عَبْدِ الْمُطَّلِبِ ، أَنَّهُ قَالَ : كُنْتُ يَوْمًا فِي الْمَسْجِدِ ، فَأَقْبَلَ أَبُو جَهْلٍ ، فَقَالَ : إِنَّ لِلهِ عَلَيَّ إِنْ رَأَيْتُ مُحَمَّدًا سَاجِدًا أَنْ أَطَأَ عَلَى رَقَبَتِهِ ، فَخَرَجْتُ إِلَى رَسُولِ اللهِ - صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ - حَتَّى دَخَلْتُ عَلَيْهِ ، فَأَخْبَرْتُهُ بِقَوْلِ أَبِي جَهْلٍ ، فَخَرَجَ - صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ - غَضْبَانًا حَتَّى دَخَلَ الْمَسْجِدَ ، فَعَجِلَ أَنْ يَدْخُلَ مِنَ الْبَابِ ، فَاقْتَحَمَ الْحَائِطَ I " ، فَقُلْتُ : هَذَا يَوْمُ شَرٍّ ، فَائْتَزَرْتُ ، ثُمَّ أَتْبَعْتُهُ ، I " فَدَخَلْتُ وَرَسُولُ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ يَقْرَأُ : اقْرَأْ بِاسْمِ رَبِّكَ الَّذِي خَلَقَ خَلَقَ الإِنْسَانَ مِنْ عَلَقٍ فَلَمَّا بَلَغَ شَأْنَ أَبِي جَهْلٍ : كَلا إِنَّ الإِنْسَانَ لَيَطْغَى أَنْ رَآهُ اسْتَغْنَى قَالَ إِنْسَانٌ لِأَبِي جَهْلٍ : يَا أَبَا الْحَكَمِ ، هَذَا مُحَمَّدٌ ، فَقَالَ أَبُو جَهْلٍ : أَلَا تَرَوْنَ مَا أَرَى ، وَاللهِ سُدَّ أُفُقُ السَّمَاءِ عَلَيَّ ، I " فَلَمَّا بَلَغَ رَسُولُ اللهِ - صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ - آخِرَ السُّورَةِ سَجَدَ .
لَا يُرْوَى هَذَا الْحَدِيثُ عَنِ الْعَبَّاسِ إِلَّا بِهَذَا الْإِسْنَادِ ، تَفَرَّدَ بِهِ : اللَّيْثُ I " .
Sayyiduna al-Abbas bin Abd al-Muttalib (may Allah be pleased with him) said: "One day I was in the mosque when Abu Jahl came and said: 'I have vowed to Allah that if I see Muhammad (peace and blessings be upon him) in prostration, I will put my foot on his neck.' So I went to the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) until I reached him and told him (peace and blessings be upon him) what Abu Jahl had said. He (peace and blessings be upon him) came out in anger until he entered the mosque; and finding entering through the door too slow, he climbed over the wall and came in. I said (to myself): 'Today is an evil day (of trouble).' So I tied on my waist-wrap and followed him (peace and blessings be upon him). I went in while the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) was reciting: 'Read in the name of your Lord who created; created man from a clinging clot.' Then, when he (peace and blessings be upon him) reached the verses about Abu Jahl: 'No! Indeed, man transgresses, because he sees himself self-sufficient,' someone said to Abu Jahl: 'O Abu al-Hakam, this is Muhammad (peace and blessings be upon him).' Abu Jahl said: 'Do you not see what I see? By Allah, the horizon of the sky has been closed off to me.' Then, when the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) reached the end of the surah, he (peace and blessings be upon him) prostrated."
Imam al-Tabarani (may Allah have mercy on him) said: "This hadith is narrated from al-Abbas (may Allah be pleased with him) only with this chain; Layth (may Allah have mercy on him) is alone in narrating it."
