ABU TALIB The faithful of Quraysh<br />

yet. Abu Talib kept on his speech confidently and he had been certain of the result that his<br />

truthful nephew, who had never told a lie at all, had told him about. He added: I have<br />

come to you for a matter between us and you. My nephew told me, and he has never told<br />

a lie at all, that <strong>All</strong>ah has sent a termite to your document. It has eaten everything in it<br />

except the holy name of <strong>All</strong>ah. If it is as he said, so you have to revive your minds. By <strong>All</strong>ah<br />

we will never hand him over to you until we all are killed. But if it is not so, we will hand him<br />

over to you. Then you are free either to kill him or to let him alive. They agreed and<br />

opened the document. They were astonished to see that it was just as what Abu Talib<br />

said but in spite of that they insisted on their situation and said: It is your nephews<br />

magic. Abu Talib said after winning the situation: Why are we blockaded and the<br />

truth is cleared now that you are unjust and unfair? Then he and his followers touched<br />

the curtains of the Kaaba praying to <strong>All</strong>ah: O <strong>All</strong>ah! Support us against those, who have<br />

wronged us, prevented us from our relatives and violated our rights! Then a group of<br />

Quraysh annulled the blockade after finding that they were extremely unjust to the<br />

Hashemites, who returned to live their ordinary life after two or three years of hunger,<br />

pain, misery.[193] We find in every word of Abu Talibs a clear image of his deep faith<br />

and certainty. The Prophet (s) told him about the termite that had eaten the document of<br />

Quraysh and he asked him: Did your God reveal that to you? His asking was not<br />

about the origin of the revelation but to show that his faith was a faith of a researcher<br />

expert and not of a submissive nave believer. His faith was of that kind, which <strong>All</strong>ah had<br />

mentioned in the holy Quran: (He said: What! and do you not believe? He said: Yes, but<br />

that my heart may be at ease) 2:260. With this certain faith Abu Talib rushed towards<br />

Quraysh arguing about the document of the blockade. He was very sure of what his<br />

nephew had told him otherwise he wouldnt give them the option that if what he had<br />

said was false, Muhammad would be handed over to them whether they wanted to kill<br />

him or not. What firm faith Abu Talib had! He believed his nephew to the extent that he<br />

challenged Quraysh so confidently before he saw the document for he had never thought<br />

that his nephew would tell him a lie. Lets suppose that Abu Talib hadnt believed in the<br />

Prophet (s) before, and then would it be acceptable that Abu Talib, after being certain of<br />

the truthfulness of what the Prophet (s) had told him of the unseen that was revealed to<br />

him by <strong>All</strong>ah, would still be unfaithful and wouldnt believe in his nephews divine<br />

mission in spite of that he had confirmed many times that Muhammad had never and<br />

would never tell a lie? In fact we found in this event the extreme faith of Abu Talib; in
