Shiavault - a Vault of Shia Islamic Books Hamza bin Abdul Muttalib Hamza bin Abdul Muttalib With Abu Jahal Al-Hamza set off for the hills overlooking Makkah. His strong horse was going up the sand hills. It was galloping along the valleys. Al-Hamza was looking carefully at the lovely scenery. The sky was blue and clear. The hills were covered with sunshine. So the grains of sand were glittering in the sun. Al-Hamza was thinking about our Master Muhammad's mission.

His heart was with Allah's Apostle. He was repeating to himself: Really there's no god but Allah. Al-Lat, al-Uzza and Munat are rocks. Man has made them with his hand. So why does he worship them? The horse was roaming through the desert. The horse ran away when it saw a man holding a bow and looking for the lions. Our Master Muhammad [s] sat on a rock on the road to al-Masa between al-Safa Mount and al-Marwa Mount. As usual, he was absorbed in thinking.

He was always thinking about his people and those who disbelieved in him and Allah's mission. There was a house near the road to al-Masa. The house had a balcony overlooking the road. Two young girls were sitting in the balcony. They saw our Master Muhammad [s] thinking and looking at the sky and the mountains. At that moment, Abu Jahal and some foolish persons from Makkah appeared. They were laughing loudly. Abu Jahal looked at our Master Muhammad [s]. His eyes glittered out of spite.

He wanted to sneer at him. So, he shouted: Look at this magician! Look at this madman! He doesn't laugh as we do! He's silent! The foolish persons laughed. Their satanic laughter filled the space. Ha, Ha, Ha! The two girls sadly watched what was happening. They saw Abu Jahal going round and round our Master Muhammad [s] laughing and being silly. Abu Jahal took a handful of dust. He put the dust on the Prophet's head. The dust fell on the Prophet's face and clothing.

Abu Jahal and his foolish friends laughed. But our Master Muhammad [s] kept silent. He was sad. The two young girls felt pain and sadness for our Master Muhammad [s]. Abu Jahal and his foolish friends went away. So, our Master Muhammad [s] stood up. He dusted is head and face and clothing. Then he went home. The two girls decided to tell al-Hamza. So, they waited for him. In the distance, al-Hamza appeared. He was coming down the hills riding his horse. The girl shouted: Hamza, come back!

The girl said to her sister: Come on! Let's tell him! The girl shouted: Aba Amara!
