Sahih al-Bukhari 4959 (Book 65, Hadith 481) #4741
Mentioned by Name in the Quran

SUMMARY: The Prophet (ﷺ) recited a verse from the Quran to Ubai bin Ka'b, and when Ubai realized that Allah had mentioned him by name, he wept.

Narrated Anas bin Malik: The Prophet said to Ubai (bin Ka'b)".Allah has ordered me to recite to you:--'Those who disbelieve among the people of the Scripture and among the idolators are not going to stop (from their disbelief'.) (Sura 98) Ubai said, "Did Allah mention me by name?" The Prophet said, "Yes". On that, Ubai wept.
حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ بَشَّارٍ، حَدَّثَنَا غُنْدَرٌ، حَدَّثَنَا شُعْبَةُ، سَمِعْتُ قَتَادَةَ، عَنْ أَنَسِ بْنِ مَالِكٍ ـ رضى الله عنه ـ قَالَ النَّبِيُّ لأُبَىٍّ‏.‏ ‏"‏ إِنَّ اللَّهَ أَمَرَنِي أَنْ أَقْرَأَ عَلَيْكَ ‏{‏لَمْ يَكُنِ الَّذِينَ كَفَرُوا‏}‏ ‏"‏‏.‏ قَالَ وَسَمَّانِي قَالَ ‏"‏ نَعَمْ ‏"‏‏.‏ فَبَكَى‏.‏
