[Machine] The Prophet ﷺ and I went together until we entered the synagogue of the Jews in the city on their holiday, but they did not like our entry. The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said to them, "O assembly of Jews, show me twelve men who bear witness that there is no god but Allah and that I am the Messenger of Allah, and Allah will remove His anger from any Jew beneath the sky." None of them answered him, so he repeated his request three times, and no one answered him. Then he said, "You have refused, so by Allah, I am the gatherer, the last to live, and the one who will strike with punishment. Have you believed or denied?" Then he left and I was with him until he was about to leave, when a man from behind us said, "As you are, O Muhammad." The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, "Who are you, O Jews?" They said, "We do not know of any person among us who is more knowledgeable about the Book of Allah than you, nor more understanding than you or your father before you, or your grandfather before your father." He said, "Then I bear witness for him with Allah that he is the Messenger of Allah whom you find written in the Torah." They said, "You have lied." Then they rejected him and said evil things to him. The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said to them, "You have lied, and your words will not be accepted. As for now, you praise him with good words when he does something good, but when he believes, you deny him and say what you do not say. Your words will not be accepted." Then we left, and we were three: the Messenger of Allah ﷺ , Abdullah ibn Salam, and I. Then Allah revealed in this regard the verse: "Say, 'Have you considered: if it is from Allah and you disbelieved in it...?'" (Surah Al-An'am, 6:35).
