Arabic (Original)
حَدَّثَنَا عَفَّانُ حَدَّثَنَا حَمَّادٌ أَخْبَرَنَا عَطَاءُ بْنُ السَّائِبِ عَنْ أَبِيهِ عَنْ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ عَمْرٍو أَنَّ الْيَهُودَ أَتَتْ النَّبِيَّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ فَقَالَتْ السَّامُ عَلَيْكَ وَقَالُوا فِي أَنْفُسِهِمْ { لَوْلَا يُعَذِّبُنَا اللَّهُ بِمَا نَقُولُ } فَأَنْزَلَ اللَّهُ عَزَّ وَجَلَّ { وَإِذَا جَاءُوكَ حَيَّوْكَ بِمَا لَمْ يُحَيِّكَ بِهِ اللَّهُ فَقَرَأَ إِلَى قَوْلِهِ فَبِئْسَ الْمَصِيرُ }.
English Translation
Affan told us: Hammad told us: Ata ibn al-Sa'ib informed us, from his father, from Abdullah ibn Amr, that the Jews came to the Prophet, peace and blessings be upon him, and said: Death be upon you - and said among themselves: Why does Allah not punish us for what we say? So Allah, mighty and majestic is He, revealed: And when they come to you, they greet you with a greeting Allah has not greeted you with - and he recited up to His words: and evil is the destination.
