It is narrated from Ibn Shihab that Utbah and Ubaydah exchanged two blows between them, and each of them wounded his opponent. Then Hamzah and Ali attacked Utbah and killed him, and carried back their companion Ubaydah. When he was brought to the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him), his leg had been cut off and its marrow was flowing. When they brought Ubaydah to the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him), he said: "O Messenger of Allah, am I not a martyr?" He (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "Of course (you certainly are)." Then Ubaydah said: "If Abu Talib were alive today, he would know that we are more deserving than him of what he said: 'We will not hand him over (to the enemy) until we are struck down around him, and are heedless of our sons and our wives.'"
