==Muhammad threatened slaughter to the idol worshippers when he was in Mecca== | |||
This hadith should checkmate any Muslims who claim that Muhamad was non-violent in Mecca or he never threatened the city folk who refused his religion. | |||
When asked about the worst way in which the Quraish showed their enmity to the apostle, Abdullah ibn Amr ibn As. said: | |||
{{Quote||I was with them one day when the notables had gathered in the Hijr and the apostle | |||
was mentioned. They said that they had never known anything like the trouble they | |||
had endured from this fellow; he had declared their mode of life foolish, insulted their | |||
forefathers, reviled their religion, divided the community, and cursed their gods. What | |||
they had home was past all bearing or words to that effect. While they were thus | |||
discussing him, the apostle came towards them and kissed the black stone, then he | |||
passed them as he walked round the temple. As he passed they said some injurious | |||
things about him. This I could see from his expression. He went on and as he passed them the second time they attacked him similarly... He stopped and said, “Will you | |||
listen to me O Quriash? By him who holds my life in His hand I bring you slaughter.” | |||
This word so struck the people that not one of them but stood silent and still; even one | |||
who had hitherto been most violent spoke to him in the kindest way possible, saying, | |||
“Depart, O Abul Qasim, for by God you are not violent.” So the apostle went away, | |||
and on the morrow they assembled in the Hijr, I being there too, and they asked one | |||
another if they remembered what had taken place between them and the apostle so | |||
that when he openly said something unpleasant they let him alone. }} | |||
