Abū Jahl's Seeking Judgment through Supplication
[ اسْتِفْتَاحُ أَبِي جَهْلٍ بِالدُّعَاءِ ] قَالَ ابْنُ إسْحَاقَ: وَحَدَّثَنِي مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ مُسْلِمِ بْنِ شِهَابٍ الزُّهْرِيُّ، عَنْ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ ثَعْلَبَةَ بْنِ صُعَيْرٍ الْعُذْرِيِّ، حَلِيفِ بَنِي زُهْرَةَ، أَنَّهُ حَدَّثَهُ: أَنَّهُ لَمَّا الْتَقَى النَّاسُ، وَدَنَا بَعْضُهُمْ مِنْ بَعْضٍ، قَالَ أَبُو جَهْلِ بْنُ هِشَامٍ: اللَّهُمَّ أَقْطَعَنَا لِلرَّحِمِ، وَآتَانَا بِمَا لَا يُعْرَفُ، فَأَحِنْهُ الْغَدَاةَ. فَكَانَ هُوَ الْمُسْتَفْتِحَ

Ṣuʿayr al-ʿUdhrī, an ally of Banū Zuhrah, that he related to him: that when the people met, and drew near to one another, Abū Jahl b. Hishām said: "O God, the one among us who has cut kinship ties and brought us what is unrecognized, destroy him this morning." He was the one seeking the decision by supplication.
