حَدَّثَنَا إِسْحَاقُ حَدَّثَنَا وَهْبُ بْنُ جَرِيرِ بْنِ حَازِمٍ أَخْبَرَنَا شُعْبَةُ عَنْ الْأَعْمَشِ عَنْ أَبِي الضُّحَی عَنْ مَسْرُوقٍ عَنْ خَبَّابٍ قَالَ کُنْتُ قَيْنًا فِي الْجَاهِلِيَّةِ وَکَانَ لِي عَلَی الْعَاصِ بْنِ وَائِلٍ دَرَاهِمُ فَأَتَيْتُهُ أَتَقَاضَاهُ فَقَالَ لَا أَقْضِيکَ حَتَّی تَکْفُرَ بِمُحَمَّدٍ فَقُلْتُ لَا وَاللَّهِ لَا أَکْفُرُ بِمُحَمَّدٍ صَلَّی اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ حَتَّی يُمِيتَکَ اللَّهُ ثُمَّ يَبْعَثَکَ قَالَ فَدَعْنِي حَتَّی أَمُوتَ ثُمَّ أُبْعَثَ فَأُوتَی مَالًا وَوَلَدًا ثُمَّ أَقْضِيَکَ فَنَزَلَتْ أَفَرَأَيْتَ الَّذِي کَفَرَ بِآيَاتِنَا وَقَالَ لَأُوتَيَنَّ مَالًا وَوَلَدًا الْآيَةَ
صحیح بخاری · Hadith 2425
Narrated Khabbab: I was a blacksmith In the Pre-Islamic period of ignorance, and 'Asi bin Wail owed me some money. I went to him to demand it, but he said to me, "I will not pay you unless you reject faith in Muhammad." I replied, "By Allah, I will never disbelieve Muhammad till Allah let you die and then resurrect you." He said, "Then wait till I die and come to life again, for then I will be given property and offspring and will pay your right." So, thus revelation came: "Have you seen him who disbelieved in Our signs and yet says, 'I will be given property and offspring?' " (19.77)
