He said, “Who will take this sword for its right?
He said, “Who will take this sword for its right?” Abu Dujanah said, “What is its right, O messenger of Allah?” The Prophet (a.s.) said, “To strike with it in the face of the enemy until it (the sword) is bent.” Abu Dujanah said, “I take it, O messenger of Allah, for its right.” He took the sword and attacked the polytheists. He killed everyone he met. He attacked Hind, Mo’awiya’s mother, and was about to beat her head, but he gave up loftily.
[1] In another narration it has been mentioned that he said, “I honored the sword of the messenger of Allah in not hitting by it a woman.” [2] Thus were the situations of the Prophet’s companions. They were honest, noble, and lofty. The murder of Hamza Hamza bin Abdul Muttalib, the Prophet’s uncle, was a very brave hero before and after Islam. He was a very faithful Muslim who defended Islam boldly. He was the striking force in the Muslim army.
In the battle of Uhud, he was assassinated by Wahshi, a villain, sinful slave who was incited by Hind, Abu Sufyan’s wife, who lost several men from her family in the battle of Badr.
