Concealed Birth of the Imam of the Time (a.s) was not an extraordinary event
Source
Shaykh Muḥammad b. al-Ḥasan al-Ṭūsī
۞
If it is said: Your claim of the long life of your Patron [Imam Mahdi (a.s)] is extraordinary, as according to you, he remains a man of complete intelligence, strength and youthful looks, because he is, according to you, at this time in 447 A.H., a hundred and ninety-seven years old, as his birth was in 256 A.H.
فإن قيل: ادعاؤكم طول عمر صاحبكم أمر خارق للعادات مع بقائه على قولكم كامل العقل تام القوة والشباب لأنه على قولكم له في هذا الوقت الذي هو سنة سبع وأربعين وأربعمائة مائة وإحدى وتسعون سنة،لأن مولده على قولكم سنة ست وخمسين ومائتين.
