532. Muhammad Bin Yahya, from Ahmad Bin Muhammad Bin Isa, from Al-Hassan Bin Mahbub, from Abu Jameela, from Aban ibn Taglib, who has reported the following: Abu Abdullah (asws) was asked
‘Did Isa Ibn Maryam (as) revive anyone after his death to the extent that he ate, received sustenance, and had a term, and children?’ He replied: ‘Yes. He had a friend who he had established brotherhood with for the Sake of Allah (azwj) Blessed and High, and Isa (as) used to pass by him and visit him. And that Isa (as) remained absent from him for a while, then passed by his house to greet him. His mother came out to him. So he asked her about him. She said, ‘He died, O Messenger (as) of Allah (azwj)’. He (as) said: ‘Would you love to see him’. She said, ‘Yes’. He (as) said to her: ‘Come to me tomorrow and I shall revive him for you by the Permission of Allah (azwj) Blessed and High’. So when it was the next day, she came over. He (as) said to her: ‘Come with me to his grave’. So they went until they arrived at his grave. Isa (as) paused at it, and then supplicated to Allah (azwj). The grave split apart and her son came out alive. So when his mother saw him, and he saw her, they wept. Isa (as) sympathized with them. Isa (as) said to him: ‘Would you like to remain alive with your mother in the world?’ He said, ‘O Prophet (saww) of Allah (azwj), with eating and sustenance and a term, or without eating and sustenance and a term?’ So Isa (as) said to him: ‘With eating and sustenance and a term. And you will be living for twenty years and get married and have children’. He said, ‘Yes’. When he said that, Isa (as) handed him over to his mother. He thus lived for twenty years, and got married, and had children’.
مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ يَحْيَى عَنْ أَحْمَدَ بْنِ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ عِيسَى عَنِ الْحَسَنِ بْنِ مَحْبُوبٍ عَنْ أَبِي جَمِيلَةَ عَنْ أَبَانِ بْنِ تَغْلِبَ وَ غَيْرِهِ عَنْ أَبِي عَبْدِ اللَّهِ (عليه السلام) أَنَّهُ سُئِلَ هَلْ
كَانَ عِيسَى ابْنُ مَرْيَمَ أَحْيَا أَحَداً بَعْدَ مَوْتِهِ حَتَّى كَانَ لَهُ أَكْلٌ وَ رِزْقٌ وَ مُدَّةٌ وَ وَلَدٌ فَقَالَ نَعَمْ إِنَّهُ كَانَ لَهُ صَدِيقٌ مُوَاخٍ لَهُ فِي اللَّهِ تَبَارَكَ وَ تَعَالَى وَ كَانَ عِيسَى (عليه السلام) يَمُرُّ بِهِ وَ يَنْزِلُ عَلَيْهِ وَ إِنَّ عِيسَى غَابَ عَنْهُ حِيناً ثُمَّ مَرَّ بِهِ لِيُسَلِّمَ عَلَيْهِ فَخَرَجَتْ إِلَيْهِ أُمُّهُ فَسَأَلَهَا عَنْهُ فَقَالَتْ مَاتَ يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ فَقَالَ أَ فَتُحِبِّينَ أَنْ تَرَاهُ قَالَتْ نَعَمْ فَقَالَ لَهَا فَإِذَا كَانَ غَداً فَآتِيكِ حَتَّى أُحْيِيَهُ لَكِ بِإِذْنِ اللَّهِ تَبَارَكَ وَ تَعَالَى فَلَمَّا كَانَ مِنَ الْغَدِ أَتَاهَا فَقَالَ لَهَا انْطَلِقِي مَعِي إِلَى قَبْرِهِ فَانْطَلَقَا حَتَّى أَتَيَا قَبْرَهُ فَوَقَفَ عَلَيْهِ عِيسَى (عليه السلام) ثُمَّ دَعَا اللَّهَ عَزَّ وَ جَلَّ فَانْفَرَجَ الْقَبْرُ وَ خَرَجَ ابْنُهَا حَيّاً فَلَمَّا رَأَتْهُ أُمُّهُ وَ رَآهَا بَكَيَا فَرَحِمَهُمَا عِيسَى (عليه السلام) فَقَالَ لَهُ عِيسَى أَ تُحِبُّ أَنْ تَبْقَى مَعَ أُمِّكَ فِي الدُّنْيَا فَقَالَ يَا نَبِيَّ اللَّهِ بِأَكْلٍ وَ رِزْقٍ وَ مُدَّةٍ أَمْ بِغَيْرِ أَكْلٍ وَ لَا رِزْقٍ وَ لَا مُدَّةٍ فَقَالَ لَهُ عِيسَى (عليه السلام) بِأَكْلٍ وَ رِزْقٍ وَ مُدَّةٍ وَ تُعَمَّرُ عِشْرِينَ سَنَةً وَ تَزَوَّجُ وَ يُولَدُ لَكَ قَالَ نَعَمْ إِذاً قَالَ فَدَفَعَهُ عِيسَى إِلَى أُمِّهِ فَعَاشَ عِشْرِينَ سَنَةً وَ تَزَوَّجَ وَ وُلِدَ لَهُ.
