[4662] 118 - (1800) Anas bin Mâlik said: "The Messenger of Allâh ﷺ said: 'Who will find out for us what happened to Abû Jahl?' Ibn Mas'ûd set out and found that he had been struck by the two sons of 'Afrâ' and he was cold (near death). He took hold of his beard and said: 'Are you Abû Jahl?' He said: 'Is there anyone better than a man whom you have killed - or whose people have killed him?'" And Abû Mîjlaz said: "Abû Jahl said: 'Would that someone other than a peasant had killed me.'"

Arabic text

118 - (1800) حَدَّثَنَا عَلِيُّ بْنُ حُجْرٍ السَّعْدِيُّ، أَخْبَرَنَا إِسْمَاعِيلُ يَعْنِي ابْنَ عُلَيَّةَ، حَدَّثَنَا سُلَيْمَانُ التَّيْمِيُّ، حَدَّثَنَا أَنَسُ بْنُ مَالِكٍ، قَالَ: قَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ: «مَنْ يَنْظُرُ لَنَا مَا صَنَعَ أَبُو جَهْلٍ؟» فَانْطَلَقَ ابْنُ مَسْعُودٍ، فَوَجَدَهُ قَدْ ضَرَبَهُ ابْنَا عَفْرَاءَ، حَتَّى بَرَكَ، قَالَ: فَأَخَذَ بِلِحْيَتِهِ، فَقَالَ: آنْتَ أَبُو جَهْلٍ؟ فَقَالَ: وَهَلْ فَوْقَ رَجُلٍ قَتَلْتُمُوهُ - أَو قَالَ: قَتَلَهُ قَوْمُهُ -، قَالَ: وَقَالَ أَبُو مِجْلَزٍ: قَالَ أَبُو جَهْلٍ: فَلَوْ غَيْرُ أَكَّارٍ قَتَلَنِي ، حَدَّثَنَا حَامِدُ بْنُ عُمَرَ الْبَكْرَاوِيُّ، حَدَّثَنَا مُعْتَمِرٌ، قَالَ: سَمِعْتُ أَبِي، يَقُولُ: حَدَّثَنَا أَنَسٌ، قَالَ: قَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ: «مَنْ يَعْلَمُ لِي مَا فَعَلَ أَبُو جَهْلٍ» بِمِثْلِ حَدِيثِ ابْنِ عُلَيَّةَ، وَقَوْلِ أَبِي مِجْلَزٍ كَمَا ذَكَرَهُ إِسْمَاعِيلُ
