52. SHACKLE IN THE NECK OF ABU JAHL

Once, Abu Jahl and two other persons of his tribe swore the oath that if they would find Muhammad they would crush his (blessed) head with some stone. When the Holy Prophet visited the blessed Ka’bah to offer Salah, Abu Jahl chased after him whilst holding a very huge stone in his hands. He lifted it above his head in order to throw it on the Prophet of Rahmah but both of his hands came to his neck, the stone stuck to his hands, both of his wrists became tied round his neck like a neck cuff and he returned unsuccessful in his mission.

The next day, Waleed Bin Mughayrah rebuked him and said, ‘Give me that stone. I will crush his (blessed) head with it.’ Therefore, this wicked soul intended to throw the rock on the blessed head of the Beloved Prophet when he was offering Salah. But all

of a sudden, he became blind. He could hear the sound of the recitation of the Holy Prophet but was unable to see him, and ultimately had to return back where he could not even see his friends. When he called for them, his friends asked him what had happened. He told his pathetic story.

Then the third person furiously took the stone in his hand, but the moment he reached near the Revered and Renowned Prophet he ran back nervously. Whilst gasping and trembling, he told his friends that when he reached near him, he saw such a terrifying bull waving his tail that he had never seen such in his life ever before. He swore by Laat and ‘Uzza, ‘If I would have gone near him, it would have killed me.’

The Holy Quran has mentioned this event in the following words of Surah Yaseen:

We have put chains around their necks reaching up to the chins, so they remain facing upwards. And we have set a wall before them and a wall behind them, and covered them from top – so they see nothing.

Moral: 

It was one of the great miracles of the Prophet of Rahmah. Many a times infidels hatched murder plans and tried their best, but they could not harm the Beloved and Blessed Prophet even in the least and following Divine revelation was fulfilled:

And Allah will safeguard you from the people.
