Abu Jahl, Hakim, Nufail, Al Harith, the son of Amir, Tu'mayma, Al Nadr, Zama'a,
Umayya, Nabi, Munabbih, Suhayl, and Amr, the son of Abdu Wudd. When the
Prophet learned of this he turned to his followers and said: "Mecca has thrown to
you the piece of its liver!" From this they understood that they would fight against
their chief enemies.
A FEELING OF SAFETY:
When Abu Sufyan discovered the date stones in the camel's dung he decided to
take the longer route to Mecca feeling sure that in doing so the caravan would
escape the attack. Feeling a sense of security he sent word to his fellow Koraysh
chieftains saying: "You came out to save your caravan, your tribesmen and your
merchandise, but Allah has delivered us, therefore return." When Abu Jahl heard
these words he exclaimed: "By Allah, we will not return until we have been to
Badr! There, we will spend three days feasting, slaughtering camels, drinking
wine and the girls will entertain us. When the tribes of Arabia hear of us they will
henceforth hold us high in their esteem!"
