4732. Narrated Khabbāb: I came to Al-‘Āṣ bin Wā’il As-Sahmī and demanded something which he owed me. He said, “I will not give you (your money) till you disbelieve in Muḥammad (ﷺ).” I said, “No, I shall not disbelieve in Muḥammad ﷺ till you die and then be resurrected.” He said, “Will I die and then be resurrected?” I said, “Yes”. He said, “Then I will have wealth and children there, and I will pay you (there).” So this Verse was revealed: “Have you then seen him who disbelieved in Our Ayāt (this Qur’ān and Muḥammad ﷺ) and said: ‘I shall certainly be given wealth and children?’.” (V.19:77)
