3856. Narrated 'Urwa bin Az-Zubair: I asked Ibn 'Amr bin Al-'Ās, "Tell me of the worst thing which Al-Mushrikūn [polytheists, pagans, idolaters, and disbelievers in the Oneness of Allāh and in his Messenger Muḥammad (ﷺ)] did to the Prophet (ﷺ)." He said, "While the Prophet (ﷺ) was offering Ṣalāt (prayer) in the Hijr of the Ka'bah, 'Uqba bin Abī Mu'āit came and put his garment around the Prophet's neck and throttled him violently. Abū Bakr came and caught him by his shoulder and pushed him away from the Prophet (ﷺ) and said, "Would you kill a man just because he says, 'My Lord is Allāh?'" Narrated 'Urwa as above.
