Transliteration:( Summa qutila kaifa qaddar )
16. Once, Waleed heard from the Holy Prophet ? a few verses from Surah Hameem Sajdah and when he came to his people, he praised the Holy Qur'an a great deal, which infuriated them. Abu Jahl said that he would put Waleed right. He went up to Waleed and said that the Quraish are saying that you are in the praising Muhammad ? hope of gaining some wealth. The Quraish are ready to go on a collection drive for you.
Waleed, on hearing this, became very angry and said don't the people know how wealthy I am? In comparison, the Companions of the Holy Prophet ?, had never eaten a full meal What can such people give me?
He came to the Quraish with Abu and said, Is Muhammad ? demented? They said: No. Is he a poet? They said: No. Is he a soothsayer? They replied: No. Is he a liar? They said: No. The people then asked him; you tell us what is he? Waleed replied; He is a magician through which he attracts people toward him.
