*300 MIRACLES OF PROPHET MUHAMMAD ﷺ*
Number 26.
*A ditch of fire appeared before Abu Jahl when he resolved to attack the Beloved Messenger of Allah whilst he prayed.*
• Sayyidina Abu Hurayrah that Abu Jahl said, "Does Muhammad cover his face with dust
(i.e., from prostration) while he is among you all?'' The people replied, "Yes.'' Then he
said, "By al-Lat and al-Uzza, if I see him praying like this, I will stomp on his neck, and I will certainly put his face in the dust.'' So the Messenger of Allah came and he began
praying, which made it possible for Abu Jahl to stomp on his neck. The people became
surprised at Abu Jahl because he began retreating on his heels and covering himself with his hands. Then it was said to him, "What's the matter with you?'' He replied, "Verily,
between me and him is a ditch of fire, monsters and wings.'' Then the Messenger of Allah said, “If he had come near me, the angels would have snatched him limb by limb.”
[Tafsir ibn Kathir; Surah al-Alaq]
