Narrated Anas (may Allah be pleased with him): The Prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) said (on the day of Badr): "Who will look for Abu Jahl and bring me news of him?" So Ibn Mas'ud (may Allah be pleased with them both) went and found him (in such a state) that the two sons of 'Afra had beaten him so much that he was dying. Ibn Mas'ud (may Allah be pleased with them both) said, "Are you Abu Jahl?" and grabbed his beard. He (Abu Jahl) said, "Is there anyone greater than the man you have killed?" or he said, "Is there anyone greater than the man whom his own people have killed?"
