Musannaf Ibn Abi Shaybah 39459 — The great Battle of Badr, how it came

It is narrated from Sayyiduna Abdullah (may Allah be pleased with him) that he said: On the day of Badr I reached Abu Jahl. His foot had been struck, he was half-dead, and he was keeping people away from himself with his sword. I said: "O enemy of Allah, all praise is for Allah who has disgraced you." He said: "He is a man who has been killed by his own people." Abdullah said: So I began to strike at him with a small sword of mine, and I reached his hand, and his sword fell. I took that sword and struck Abu Jahl with that same sword until he went cold. Then I left (that place) and came to the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) (in such a way) as if I were being lifted off the ground (that is, I went quickly), and I informed him (peace and blessings be upon him). He (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "Is it really so? By the One besides whom there is no god?" He (peace and blessings be upon him) repeated this to me three times. Then he (peace and blessings be upon him) came out, walking with me, until he (peace and blessings be upon him) stood over him and said: "O enemy of Allah, all praise is for Allah who has disgraced you. This man was the Pharaoh of this Ummah."
