It is narrated from Sayyiduna Aqil bin Abi Talib (may Allah be pleased with him) that Quraysh came to Abu Talib and said: "Your nephew harms us in our gatherings and in our mosque, so stop him from it." At this Abu Talib said: "O Aqil, bring Muhammad (peace and blessings be upon him) to me." So I went and brought him (peace and blessings be upon him). Then Abu Talib said: "O my nephew, your cousins claim that you harm them in their gatherings and in their mosque, so desist from that." Then the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) raised his blessed gaze towards the sky and asked: "Do you see this sun?" They said: "Yes." He (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "I am no more able to abandon this call than you are able to light a flame of fire for me from this sun." On hearing this, Abu Talib said to Quraysh: "My nephew has never lied to us, so go back."
