حَدَّثَنَا عُمَرُ بْنُ حَفْصٍ حَدَّثَنَا أَبِي حَدَّثَنَا الْأَعْمَشُ عَنْ مُسْلِمٍ عَنْ مَسْرُوقٍ حَدَّثَنَا خَبَّابٌ قَالَ کُنْتُ رَجُلًا قَيْنًا فَعَمِلْتُ لِلْعَاصِ بْنِ وَائِلٍ فَاجْتَمَعَ لِي عِنْدَهُ فَأَتَيْتُهُ أَتَقَاضَاهُ فَقَالَ لَا وَاللَّهِ لَا أَقْضِيکَ حَتَّی تَکْفُرَ بِمُحَمَّدٍ فَقُلْتُ أَمَا وَاللَّهِ حَتَّی تَمُوتَ ثُمَّ تُبْعَثَ فَلَا قَالَ وَإِنِّي لَمَيِّتٌ ثُمَّ مَبْعُوثٌ قُلْتُ نَعَمْ قَالَ فَإِنَّهُ سَيَکُونُ لِي ثَمَّ مَالٌ وَوَلَدٌ فَأَقْضِيکَ فَأَنْزَلَ اللَّهُ تَعَالَی أَفَرَأَيْتَ الَّذِي کَفَرَ بِآيَاتِنَا وَقَالَ لَأُوتَيَنَّ مَالًا وَوَلَدًا
صحیح بخاری · Hadith 2275
Narrated Khabbab: I was a blacksmith and did some work for Al-`As bin Wail. When he owed me some money for my work, I went to him to ask for that amount. He said, "I will not pay you unless you disbelieve in Muhammad." I said, "By Allah! I will never do that till you die and be resurrected." He said, "Will I be dead and then resurrected after my death?" I said, "Yes." He said, "There I will have property and offspring and then I will pay you your due." Then Allah revealed. 'Have you seen him who disbelieved in Our signs, and yet says: I will be given property and offspring?' (19.77)
