1710. IRMIYA (AS)

(أَوْ كَالَّذِي مَرَّ عَلَى‏ قَرْيَةٍ وَهِيَ خَاوِيَةٌ عَلَى‏ عُرُوشِهَا قَالَ أَنَّى‏ يُحْيِي هَذِهِ اللَّهُ بَعْدَ مَوْتِهَا ...) .1

"Or him who came upon a township as it lay fallen on its trellises. He said, 'How will Allah revive this after its death?!" 2

6014.الإمامُ الباقرُ عليه السلام - لَمّا سَألَهُ عالِمٌ نَصرانِيٌّ عن رجُلٍ دَنا مِنِ امرأتِهِ فحَملَت باثنَينِ ، حَمَلَتهُما جَميعاً في ساعَةٍ واحِدَةٍ ، ووَلَدَتهُما في ساعَةٍ واحِدَةٍ ، وماتا في ساعَةٍ واحِدَةٍ ، ودُفِنا في قَبرٍ واحِدٍ ، عاشَ أحَدُهُما خَمسينَ ومِائَةَ سَنَةٍ وعاشَ الآخَرُ خَمسِينَ سَنَةً ، مَن هُما ؟ - : عُزَيرٌ وعُزرَةُ ، كانا حَمَلَت اُمُّهُما بِهما على‏ ما وَصَفتَ ووَضَعَتهُما على‏ ما وَصَفتَ وعاشَ عُزَيرٌ وعُزرَةُ كذا وكذا سَنَةً ، ثُمّ أماتَ اللَّهُ تباركَ وتعالى‏ عُزَيراً مِائةَ سَنَةٍ ، ثُمّ بُعِثَ وعاشَ مَع عُزرَةَ هذهِ الخَمسينَ سَنَةً ، وماتا كِلاهُما في ساعَةٍ واحِدَةٍ .3

6014. Imam al-Baqir (AS), when a Christian scholar asked him about a man who copulated with his wife and she became pregnant with two, both in one hour, and she gave birth to both in one hour, and they both died in one hour, and they were both buried in one grave, but one lived for one hundred and fifty years and the other lived for fifty years - who were they? He replied, ' Uzair and Uzra. Their mother was pregnant with them as you have described, and she gave birth as you described, and Uzair and Uzra lived for so and so years. Allah then made Uzair die for one hundred years, then he was revived and lived with Uzra for fifty years. Then they both died together at one time.' 4

6015.الإمامُ الصّادقُ عليه السلام : أماتَ اللَّهُ إرمياءَ النَّبيَّ عليه السلام الّذي نَظَرَ إلى‏ خَرابِ بَيتِ المَقدِسِ وما حَولَهُ حِينَ غَزاهُم بُختُ نَصَّرُ ، وقالَ : أنَّى‏ يُحيي هذهِ اللَّهُ بَعدَ مَوتِها ؟! فأماتَهُ اللَّهُ مِائةَ عامٍ ثُمّ أحياهُ ، ونَظَرَ إلى‏ أعضائهِ كيفَ تَلتَئمُ وكيفَ تَلبَسُ اللَّحمَ ، وإلى‏ مَفاصِلِهِ وعُروقِهِ كَيفَ تُوصَلُ ، فلَمّا استَوى‏ قاعِداً قالَ : (أعْلَمُ أ نّ اللَّهَ على‏ كُلِّ شَيْ‏ءٍ قَديرٌ)5 .6

6015.Imam al-Sadiq (AS) said, 'Allah brought death to the prophet Irmiya' who looked at the ruins of Jerusalem and its surroundings when Nebuchadnezzar invaded it. He said, 'How will Allah revive this after its death?!' So Allah made him die for a hundred years, then He resurrected him. He looked at his organs and how they came together and how they became covered in flesh, and at his limbs and veins and how they were connected together. When he sat upright he said, 'I know that Allah has power over all things'. 7
