	CONQUEST OF MAKKAH
		Upon his arrival, Abu Sufyan went to his daughter Umm Habeebah (raa), the Prophets's wife, and when he wanted to sit on the Messenger's carpet she folded it up so that he could not sit on it.
		Abu Sufyan asked `Ali whether that would be of any use, and `Ali replied that he was not sure, but he could have nothing to tell him until after the Messenger had decided what to do.
		Abu Sufyan's listeners asked whether the idea to go in front of the people was approved by Muhammad, and he replied no. They told him `Ali had played with his mind.

		From his early youth, Abu Sufyan shunned no means in order to achieve his political and criminal aims; he took the infamous daughter of Umayyah, Hind, as a wife to further his own designs and it was together with this woman that he confronted Islam and the radiant figure of Muhammad (s.a.w.a).
		Abu Sufyan saw himself as the guardian of the dictatorial regime of the Quraysh and as the upholder of the traditional age of jahiliyyah (pre -Islamic period of ignorance).
		Abu Sufyan and Abu Lahab in particular, the leaders of these brutish, evil criminals, one day caused so much trouble that the holy Prophet as a result of this unfortunate situation, decided to leave for another region where he would be able to continue calling the people to Islam and to complete his mission.

	Restatement of History of Islam and Muslims
		The wife of Abu Sufyan made the suggestion that the body of Mohammed's mother should be exhumed and kept as hostage; but the Kuraish rejected this suggestion (of which the practicability was surely doubtful) for fear of reprisals.

		Hinda, the wife of Abu Sufyan and the mother of Muawiya, is called the "liver-eater" in the history of Islam.

		Muhammad wisely ordered Abu Sufyan and al-Mughira, two recent converts from Mecca who were friends of the tribe settled in the city, to raze the great image to the ground.
