Nabi’s ﷺ (peace and blessings be upon him) mubaarak face is wounded

A famous warrior from the Quraish, Abdullah bin Qami-ah passed the rows of soldiers and reached Nabi ﷺ (peace and blessings be upon him). He struck a blow with his sword on the mubaarak face of Nabi ﷺ (peace and blessings be upon him). This caused two links of his helmet to sink into his mubaarak face and one tooth to break.

When Hadhrat Abu Bakr رضي الله عنه (may Allah be pleased with him) came forward to remove the links, Abu U`baidah bin Jarrah رضي الله عنه (may Allah be pleased with him) took a qasam (oath) that he be permitted to remove it. He went forward and instead of removing them with his hands, he attempted to pull them out with his teeth. With his first attempt one link came off. He pulled it with so much force that his own tooth fell off in the process. On seeing this, Hadhrat Abu Bakr رضي الله عنه (may Allah be pleased with him) went forward to remove the second link. Again Abu U`baidah رضي الله عنه (may Allah be pleased with him) promised that he will remove the second link as well. When he pulled out the second link his second tooth also fell off. At this instance, Nabi ﷺ (peace and blessings be upon him) had fallen into a pit which the kufaar had dug to entrap the Muslims.
