Sahih al-Bukhari 4020

Translation

Messenger of Allah ﷺ said on the day of Badr, "Who will go and see what has happened to Abu Jahl?" Ibn Masʿud went and saw him struck by the two sons of 'Afra and was on the point of death. Ibn Masʿud said, "Are you Abu Jahl?" Abu Jahl replied, "Can there be a man more superior to the one whom you have killed (or as Sulaiman said, or his own folk have killed.)?" Abu Jahl added, "Would that I had been killed by other than a mere farmer. "
