\nNarrated Khabbab:\n \n\nI was a blacksmith in the Pre-Islamic period, and 'Asi bin Wail owed me some money, so I went to \nhim to demand it. He said (to me), "I will not pay you unless you disbelieve Muhammad." I said, "I \nwill not disbelieve till Allah kills you and then you get resurrected." He said, "Leave me till I die and \nget resurrected, then I will be given wealth and children and I will pay you your debt." On that \noccasion it was revealed to the Prophet: \n'Have you seen him who disbelieved in Our signs and says: Surely I will be given wealth and \nchildren? Has he known the unseen, or has he taken a covenant from the Beneficent (Allah)? (19.77- \n78)\n

\nحَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ بَشَّارٍ، حَدَّثَنَا ابْنُ أَبِي عَدِيٍّ، عَنْ شُعْبَةَ، عَنْ سُلَيْمَانَ، عَنْ أَبِي الضُّحَى، عَنْ مَسْرُوقٍ، عَنْ خَبَّابٍ، قَالَ كُنْتُ قَيْنًا فِي الْجَاهِلِيَّةِ، وَكَانَ لِي عَلَى الْعَاصِ بْنِ وَائِلٍ دَيْنٌ، فَأَتَيْتُهُ أَتَقَاضَاهُ قَالَ لاَ أُعْطِيكَ حَتَّى تَكْفُرَ بِمُحَمَّدٍ صلى الله عليه وسلم‏.‏ فَقُلْتُ لاَ أَكْفُرُ حَتَّى يُمِيتَكَ اللَّهُ، ثُمَّ تُبْعَثَ‏.‏ قَالَ دَعْنِي حَتَّى أَمُوتَ وَأُبْعَثَ، فَسَأُوتَى مَالاً وَوَلَدًا فَأَقْضِيَكَ فَنَزَلَتْ ‏{‏أَفَرَأَيْتَ الَّذِي كَفَرَ بِآيَاتِنَا وَقَالَ لأُوتَيَنَّ مَالاً وَوَلَدًا * أَطَّلَعَ الْغَيْبَ أَمِ اتَّخَذَ عِنْدَ الرَّحْمَنِ عَهْدًا ‏}‏
