Saying · c. 615 CE (Meccan period), while the Prophet ﷺ sat in the shade of the Ka'bah
Ya Rasulullah, for how long? How long can we bear this? How long are we going to be tortured like this? Can you ask Allah to bring about honor and glory and get rid of this state of humiliation?
Saying · c. 615 CE (Meccan period), while sitting in the shade of the Ka'bah
Verily, the people before you were tortured worse than you (with hot iron combs that would strip his flesh, and with a saw that would cut him in half) and still that would not turn them away from the worship of Allah. I swear to you by the One who has sent me, Allah will perfect this matter to such an extent that a Muslim shepherdess will take her flock from Sana'a to Hadhramaut fearing none but Allah, or a wolf attacking her sheep. But you are being hasty.
