The Prophet's SeerahAllah commanded His Prophet to proclaim the call openly: 'فاصدع بما تؤمر وأعرض عن المشركين', so he called his people from Mount Safa. The polytheists became his enemies and harmed the weak among the believers, such as Bilal and the family of Yasir, and they besieged Banu Hashim in the mountain pass (al-Shi'b). The Muslims endured the harm, remaining firm upon their religion despite the torture and the boycott.
