Sahih al-Bukhari 3823 (Book 64, Hadith 39)
saw on my right and left two young boys and did not feel safe by standing between them. Then one of
them asked me secretly so that his companion may not hear, “O Uncle! Show me Abu Jahl.” I said, “O
nephew! What will you do to him?” He said, “I have promised Allah that if I see him (i.e. Abu Jahl), I
will either kill him or be killed before I kill him.” Then the other said the same to me secretly so that
his companion should not hear. I would not have been pleased to be in between two other men instead
of them. Then I pointed him (i.e. Abu Jahl) out to them. Both of them attacked him like two hawks till
they knocked him down. Those two boys were the sons of ‘Afra’ (i.e. an Ansari woman).
