Hadith 354
۞
354. Yahya Bin Umraan, from Haroun Bin Kharjat, from Abu Baseer, who has narrated the following
Abu Abdullah (asws) regarding the Statement of Allah (azwj) Mighty and Majestic: “[21:84] and We gave him his household (that he had lost) and the like thereof along with them”. I said, ‘His (Prophet Ayub (as)) children, how was he (as) given the like of them, with them?’ He (asws) said: ‘He (azwj) Revived for him (as) from his (as) children who had died before that of natural causes, and the like (number) of those who had died on that day’.
يَحْيَى بْنُ عِمْرَانَ عَنْ هَارُونَ بْنِ خَارِجَةَ عَنْ أَبِي بَصِيرٍ عَنْ أَبِي عَبْدِ اللَّهِ (عليه السلام) فِي قَوْلِ اللَّهِ عَزَّ وَ جَلَّ وَ آتَيْناهُ أَهْلَهُ وَ مِثْلَهُمْ مَعَهُمْ
قُلْتُ وُلْدُهُ كَيْفَ أُوتِيَ مِثْلَهُمْ مَعَهُمْ قَالَ أَحْيَا لَهُ مِنْ وُلْدِهِ الَّذِينَ كَانُوا مَاتُوا قَبْلَ ذَلِكَ بِآجَالِهِمْ مِثْلَ الَّذِينَ هَلَكُوا يَوْمَئِذٍ.
