Sahih al-Bukhari 2328 (Book 44, Hadith 15)

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)

حَدَّثَنَا إِسْحَاقُ، حَدَّثَنَا وَهْبُ بْنُ جَرِيرِ بْنِ حَازِمٍ، أَخْبَرَنَا شُعْبَةُ، عَنِ الأَعْمَشِ، عَنْ أَبِي الضُّحَى، عَنْ مَسْرُوقٍ، عَنْ خَبَّابٍ، قَالَ كُنْتُ قَيْنًا فِي الْجَاهِلِيَّةِ وَكَانَ لِي عَلَى الْعَاصِ بْنِ وَائِلٍ دَرَاهِمُ، فَأَتَيْتُهُ أَتَقَاضَاهُ فَقَالَ لاَ أَقْضِيكَ حَتَّى تَكْفُرَ بِمُحَمَّدٍ، فَقُلْتُ لاَ وَاللَّهِ لاَ أَكْفُرُ بِمُحَمَّدٍ صلى الله عليه وسلم حَتَّى يُمِيتَكَ اللَّهُ ثُمَّ يَبْعَثَكَ‏.‏ قَالَ فَدَعْنِي حَتَّى أَمُوتَ ثُمَّ أُبْعَثَ فَأُوتَى مَالاً وَوَلَدًا، ثُمَّ أَقْضِيَكَ‏.‏ فَنَزَلَتْ ‏{‏أَفَرَأَيْتَ الَّذِي كَفَرَ بِآيَاتِنَا وَقَالَ لأُوتَيَنَّ مَالاً وَوَلَدًا‏}‏ الآيَةَ‏.‏
