Pearl of Wisdom
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.'
Imam Muhammad ibn Ali al-Baqir [as] al-Kafi, v. 8, p. 123, no. 94

The First Blow of the Horn and the Second Blow of the Horn |
|
In the first section, chapters 69 and 70 of our book where we examined the scientific miracles, we mentioned the resurrection day and the blow of the horn. We learn from the Quran that the horn will be blown twice (The Throngs, 68). The first blow will announce the beginning of the end of the universe, and the second blow will announce the rising of the dead. 5 of the 10 uses of this blow indicate the first blow while the other 5 indicate the second blow. In the sura the Throngs, 68th verse where the two blows are mentioned, the word “sura” is used while describing the first blow but it is not used to describe the second blow, by this way the harmony of the words are kept in order. The verse is: 68- The horn is blown, whereupon everyone in the heavens and the earth is struck dead, except those whom God wills. Then it is blown again, whereupon they rise up, looking. 39. The Throngs, 68 The word | Number of occurrence | The Horn (first blow) | 5 | The Horn (the second blow) | 5 |
