Book 65: Prophetic Commentary on the Qur'an (Tafseer of the Prophet (pbuh))
Narrated Masruq:
Khabbab said, “During the pre-lslamic period, I was a blacksmith and Al-Asi bin Wail owed me a
debt.” So Khabbab went to him to demand the debt. He said, “I will not give you (your due) till you
disbelieve in Muhammad.” Khabbab said, “By Allah, I shall not disbelieve in Muhammad till Allah
makes you die and then resurrects you.” Al-Asi said, “So leave me till I die and then be resurrected,
for I will be given wealth and children whereupon I will pay you your debt.” So this Verse was
revealed:–
‘Have you seen him who disbelieved in Our Signs and, (yet) says: I shall certainly be given wealth and
children.’ (19.77)
حَدَّثَنَا بِشْرُ بْنُ خَالِدٍ، حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ جَعْفَرٍ، عَنْ شُعْبَةَ، عَنْ سُلَيْمَانَ، سَمِعْتُ أَبَا الضُّحَى، يُحَدِّثُ عَنْ مَسْرُوقٍ، عَنْ خَبَّابٍ، قَالَ كُنْتُ قَيْنًا فِي الْجَاهِلِيَّةِ، وَكَانَ لِي دَيْنٌ عَلَى الْعَاصِي بْنِ وَائِلٍ قَالَ فَأَتَاهُ يَتَقَاضَاهُ، فَقَالَ لاَ أُعْطِيكَ حَتَّى تَكْفُرَ بِمُحَمَّدٍ فَقَالَ وَاللَّهِ لاَ أَكْفُرُ حَتَّى يُمِيتَكَ اللَّهُ ثُمَّ تُبْعَثَ. قَالَ فَذَرْنِي حَتَّى أَمُوتَ ثُمَّ أُبْعَثَ، فَسَوْفَ أُوتَى مَالاً وَوَلَدًا، فَأَقْضِيكَ فَنَزَلَتْ هَذِهِ الآيَةُ [quran sura=”19″ aya_start=”77″ aya_end=”80″]{أَفَرَأَيْتَ الَّذِي كَفَرَ بِآيَاتِنَا وَقَالَ لأُوتَيَنَّ مَالاً وَوَلَدًا}
