During the pre-lslamic period of ignorance I saw a she-monkey surrounded by a number of mon –

Narrated ‘Abdullah bin Umar:
While ‘Umar was at home in a state of fear, there came Al-‘As bin Wail As-Sahmi Abu ‘Amr, wear –
ing an embroidered cloak and a shirt having silk hems. He was from the tribe of Bani Sahm who
were our allies during the pre-Islamic period of ignorance. Al-‘As said to ‘Umar “What is wrong with
you?” He said, “Your people claim that they would kill me if I become a Muslim.” Al-‘As said, “Nobody
will harm you after I have given protection to you.” So Al-‘As went out and met the people streaming
in the whole valley. He said, “Where are you going?” They said, “We want Ibn Al-Khattab who has
embraced Islam.” Al-‘As said, “There is no way for anybody to touch him.” So the people retreated.

Narrated Sufyan:
‘Ubaidullah said: “I heard Ibn ‘Abbas saying, “Following are some traits of the people of the pre-Is –
lamic period of ignorance (i) to defame the ancestry of other families, (ii) and to wail over the dead.”
‘Ubaidullah forgot the third trait. Sufyan said, “They say it (i.e. the third trait) was to believe that rain
was caused by the influence of stars (i.e. if a special star appears it will rain).”

Volume 5, Book 58, Number 191:
Narrated Khabbaba:
I came to the Prophet while he was leaning against his sheet cloak in the shade of the Ka’ba. We
were suffering greatly from the pagans in those days. i said (to him). “Will you invoke Allah (to help
us)?” He sat down with a red face and said, “(A believer among) those who were before you used to
be combed with iron combs so that nothing of his flesh or nerves would remain on his bones; yet
that would never make him desert his religion. A saw might be put over the parting of his head
which would be split into two parts, yet all that would never make him abandon his religion. Allah
will surely complete this religion (i.e. Islam) so that a traveler from Sana to Hadra-maut will not be
afraid of anybody except Allah.” (The sub-narrator, Baiyan added, “Or the wolf, lest it should harm
his sheep.”)

Volume 5, Book 58, Number 192:
Narrated ‘Abdullah:
The Prophet recited Surat An-Najam and prostrated, and there was nobody who did not prostrate
then except a man whom I saw taking a handful of pebbles, lifting it, and prostrating on it. He then
said, “This is sufficient for me.” No doubt I saw him killed as a disbeliever afterwards.
Volume 5, Book 58, Number 193:
Narrated ‘Abdullah:
While the Prophet was prostrating, surrounded by some of Quraish, ‘Uqba bin Abi Mu’ait brought
the intestines (i.e. abdominal contents) of a camel and put them over the back of the Prophet. The
Prophet did not raise his head, (till) Fatima, came and took it off his back and cursed the one who
had done the harm. The Prophet said, “O Allah! Destroy the chiefs of Quraish, Abu Jahl bin Hisham,
‘Utba bin Rabi’al, Shaba bin Rabi’a, Umaiya bin Khalaf or Ubai bin Khalaf.” (The sub-narrator Shu’ba,
is not sure of the last name.) I saw these people killed on the day of Badr battle and thrown in the
well except Umaiya or Ubai whose body parts were mutilated but he was not thrown in the well.
