Pearl of Wisdom
'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'.
Imam Ja'far ibn Muhammad al-Sadiq [as] al-Ihtijaj, v. 2, p. 230, no. 223
