I asked `Abdullah bin `Amr, "What was the worst thing the pagans did to Allah's Messenger (ﷺ)?" He said, "Isaw `Uqba bin Abi Mu'ait coming to the Prophet (ﷺ) while he was praying.' `Uqba put his sheet round theProphet's neck and squeezed it very severely. Abu Bakr came and pulled `Uqba away from theProphet and said, "Do you intend to kill a man just because he says: 'My Lord is Allah, and he hasbrought forth to you the Evident Signs from your Lord?"
