We complained to the Messenger of Allah (PBUH), while he was on that day leaning against his cloak in the shade of the Ka'ba. We said: Will you not seek Allah’s help for us? He said: Among those who were before you, a man would be seized and a hole would be dug for him in the ground, and a saw would be brought and placed on his head and it would be cut in half, but that would not deter him from his religion. And the flesh and nerves beneath his bones would be combed with iron combs, but that would not deter him. By Allah, Allah will perfect this matter, until a rider travels from Medina to Hadramaut would be fearing none but Allah, or the wolf for his sheep, but you are impatient.
