Narrated Khabbab:
I was a blacksmith in the Pre-lslamic period, and 'Asi bin Wail owed me some money, so I went to
him to demand it. He said (to me), "I will not pay you unless you disbelieve Muhammad." I said, "I
will not disbelieve till Allah kills you and then you get resurrected." He said, "Leave me till I die and
get resurrected, then I will be given wealth and children and I will pay you your debt." On that occa-
sion it was revealed to the Prophet:
'Have you seen him who disbelieved in Our signs and says: Surely I will be given wealth and chil-
dren? Has he known the unseen, or has he taken a covenant from the Beneficent (Allah)? (19.77-78)

with my hands for you to wear.' The Prophet took it as he was in need of it, and came to us wearing it
as a waist sheet. One of us said, 'O Allah's Apostle! Give it to me to wear.' The Prophet agreed to give
it to him. The Prophet sat with the people for a while and then returned (home), wrapped that waist
sheet and sent it to him. The people said to that man, 'You haven't done well by asking him for it
when you know that he never turns down anybody's request.' The man replied, 'By Allah, I have not
