Abu Jahl ibn Hisham
Abu Jahl, whose real name was Amr ibn Hisham, was a prominent leader of the Quraysh tribe and one of the most fervent opponents of the Prophet Muhammad and Islam in its early days. Known for his fierce opposition to the new faith, he played a significant role in persecuting Muslims and sought to maintain the traditional polytheistic practices of the Quraysh. His actions against the early Muslim community made him a key antagonist in Islamic history, and he is often referred to as 'the Pharaoh of this Ummah' for his tyranny and resistance to the message of Islam.
