THREAT
ALL the Arab chiefs gathered together and went to Abu TALIB. “We
will kill your nephew,” they said, “He hates our gods
and unbridles his tongue against them.”
This disturbed Abu TALIB. To fight them was not an easy job. He went
to his nephew and warned him.
“Don’t you worry, uncle,” said Muhammad (pbuh)
“Leave me to my God “If these people,” he continued,
“were to place in my one hand the golden sun and in the other
the silver moon, I shall not shrink back. Ether I will spread this
religion of God or I will lay down my life for it.”
The uncle was impressed with this courage and he got up and said,
“Carry on my son; I am at your back as long as I live.”
