" عَنْ عَلِىٍّ فِى قوْله: {أَوْ كَالَّذِي مَرَّ عَلَى قَرْيَةٍ} قَالَ خَرجً عُزَيْرُ نَبِىُّ الله مِنْ مَدِينَتِهِ وَهُوَ شَابٌ فَمَرَّ عَلَى خَرِبَة وَهِىَ خَاوِيَةٌ عَلَى عُرُوشِهَا فَقَالَ: أنَّى يُحْيى هَذِهِ الله بَعْدَ مَوْتِها؟ فَأمَاتَهُ الله مِائَةَ عَامٍ، ثُمَّ بَعَثَهُ فَأوَّلُ مَا خَلَقَهُ مِنْهُ عَيْنَاهُ، فَجَعَلَ يَنْظُرُ إِلَى عِظَامِهِ، يُنْظَرُ بَعْضُهَا إِلَى بَعْضٍ كسِيَتْ لَحْمًا، ثُمَّ نُفِخَ فِيهِ الروحُ فَقِيلَ لَهُ: كمْ لَبِثْتَ؟ قَالَ: لَبِثْتُ يَوْمًا أَوْ بَعْضَ يَوْمٍ، قَالَ: بَلْ لَبِثْتَ مَائِةَ عَامٍ، فَأتَى مَدِينَتهُ وَقَدْ تَرَكَ جَارا لَهُ إسْكَافًا شَابًا فَجَاء وَهُوَ شَيْخٌ كبِير".

"From Ali, regarding His saying: {Or like one who passed by a town}, he said: 'Uzayr, the Prophet of Allah, went out from his city while he was young, and he passed by a ruin that was empty upon its roofs. He said: 'How will Allah give life to this after its death?' So Allah caused him to die for a hundred years, then resurrected him. The first thing He created in him was his eyes, and he began looking at his bones, some of them connected to others, and they were clothed with flesh. Then the soul was breathed into him. It was said to him: 'How long did you remain?' He said: 'I remained a day or part of a day.' He was told: 'Rather, you remained a hundred years.' He came to his city, having left behind a neighbor of his, a young cobbler. He came while he was an old man."
