Walid ibn Utba was the brother of famous woman Hind, who was wife of Abu Sufyan. Both Hind and Abu Sufyan were very famous for enimity against Islam. The battle of Badr started with champions from both armies emerging to engage in combat. Three of the Ansar emerged from the Muslim ranks, only to be shouted back by the Meccans, who were nervous about starting any unnecessary feuds and only wanted to fight the Quraishi Muslims. So the Muslims sent out Hamzah, Ubaydah, and Ali. The Muslims dispatched the Meccan champions in a three-on-three melee, although Ubaydah was mortally wounded. Walid and his father Utba were killed by Ali was Hamza respectively.
