A group of Quraish gathered in the Hijr and swore an oath by al-Lat and al‘Uzza, and by Manat the third one, (saying): If we see Muhammad, we will go to him as one man, and will not leave him until we kill him. Then his daughter Fatimah (رضي الله عنھا) came weeping, and entered upon the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) and said: This group of your people in the Hijr has sworn an oath against you, that if they see you, they will come to you and kill you, and there is no one among them who will not have a share in your killing. He said: "O my daughter, bring me water for wudoo’." Then he did wadoo’ and entered upon them in the mosque, and when they saw him they said: Here he is. Then they lowered their gaze, and they stayed where they were and did not look up at him, and no man among them stood up. Then the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) came and stood over them. He took a handful of dust and threw it at them and said, "May these faces be made ugly!", and no one was hit by that dust but he was among those who were slain as kafirs on the day of Badr.
