It has been narrated on the authority of Ibn Mas'ud who said: While the Messenger of Allah ( صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم ) was saying his prayer near the Ka’bah and Abu Jahl with his companions was sitting (near by), Abu Jahl said, referring to the she-camel that had been slaughtered the previous day: Who will rise to fetch the foetus of the she-camel of so and so, and place it between the shoulders of Muhammad when he goes down in prostration (a posture in prayer). The one most accursed among the people got up, brought the foetus and, when the Prophet ( صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم ) went down in prostration, placed it between his shoulders. Then they laughed at him and some of them leaned upon the others with laughter. And I stood looking. If I had the power, I would have thrown it away from the back of the Messenger of Allah ( صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم ) . The Prophet ( صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم ) had bent down his head in prostration and did not raise it, until a man went (to his house) and informed (his daughter) Fatima, who was a young girl (at that time) (about this ugly incident). She came and removed (the filthy thing) from him. Then she turned towards them rebuking them (the mischief-mongers). When the Prophet ( صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم ) had finished his prayer, he invoked God's imprecations upon them in a loud voice. When he prayed, he prayed thrice, and when he asked for God's blessings, he asked thrice. Then he said thrice: O Allah, it is for Thee to deal with the Quraish. When they heard his voice, laughter vanished from them and they feared his malediction. Then he said: O God, it is for Thee to deal with Abu Jahl bin Hisham, 'Utba bin Rabi'ah, Shaiba bin Rabi'ah. Walid bin Uqba, Umayya bin Khalaf, Uqba bin Abu Mu'ait (and he mentioned the name of the seventh person. which I did not remember). By One Who sent Muhammad with truth, I saw (all) those he had named lying slain on the Day of Badr. Their dead bodies were dragged to be thrown into a pit near the battlefield.Abu Ishiq had said that the name of Walid bin 'Uqba has been wrongly mentioned in this tradition.

It has been narrated by'Abdullah (b. Mas'ud) who said: When the Messenger of Allah ( صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم ) was lying postrate in prayer and around him were some people from the Quraish, 'Uqba bin Abu Mu'ait brought the foetus of a she-camel and threw it on the back of the Messenger of Allah ( صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم ) . He did not raise his head until Fatima arrived, removed it from his back and cursed him who had done that (ugly act). He said: O Allah, it is for Thee to deal with the chiefs of the Quraish. Abu Jahl bin Hisham, 'Utba bin Rabi'ah. Uqba bin Abu Mu'ait, Shaiba bin Rabi'ah, Umayya bin Khalaf or Ubayy bin Khalaf (Shu'bah, one of the narrator of this tradition is in doubt about the exact person). I saw that all were slain in the Battle of Badr and their dead bodies were thrown into a well, except that of Umayya or Ubayy which was cut into pieces and was thrown into the well.

Abu Ishiq has narrated a similar tradition through a different chain of transmitters and has added: He (the Messenger of Allah) ( صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم ) loved to repeat the supplication thrice. He was saying: O Allah, it is for Thee to deal with the Quraish (repeating these words thrice). And among the Quraish, he mentioned (the names of) al-Walid bin 'Utba and Umayya bin Khalaf. (The narrator says there is no doubt about the names of these persons but he has forgotten the name of the seventh man)

It has been narrated on the authority of 'Abdullah that, the Messenger of Allah ( صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم ) turned his face towards the Ka’bah and invoked God's imprecations upon six men of the Quraish, among whom were Abu Jahl, Umayya bin Khalaf, Utba bin Rabi'ah, Shaiba bin Rabi'ah and 'Uqba bin Abu Mu'ait I swear by God that I saw them lying slain in the battlefield of Badr. It being a hot day, their complexion had changed (showing signs of decay).
