حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو نُعَيْمٍ حَدَّثَنَا عُمَرُ بْنُ ذَرٍّ قَالَ سَمِعْتُ أَبِي عَنْ سَعِيدِ بْنِ جُبَيْرٍ عَنْ ابْنِ عَبَّاسٍ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُ قَالَ قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّی اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ لِجِبْرِيلَ مَا يَمْنَعُکَ أَنْ تَزُورَنَا أَکْثَرَ مِمَّا تَزُورُنَا فَنَزَلَتْ وَمَا نَتَنَزَّلُ إِلَّا بِأَمْرِ رَبِّکَ لَهُ مَا بَيْنَ أَيْدِينَا وَمَا خَلْفَنَا
صحیح بخاری · Hadith 4733
Narrated Khabbab: I was a blacksmith in Mecca Once I made a sword for Al-`Asi bin Wail As-Sahmi. When I went to demand its price, he said, "I will not give it to you till you disbelieve in Muhammad." I said, "I shall not disbelieve in Muhammad till Allah make you die and then bring you to life again." He said, "If Allah should make me die and then resurrect me and I would have wealth and children." So Allah revealed:-- 'Have you seen him who disbelieved in Our Signs, and (yet) says I shall certainly be given wealth and children? Has he known the unseen or has he taken a covenant from (Allah) the Beneficent?' (19.77- 78)
