Arabic (Original)
قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ جَعْفَرٍ قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا شُعْبَةُ عَنْ يَعْلَى بْنِ عَطَاءٍ عَنْ وَكِيعِ بْنِ حُدُسٍ عَنْ أَبِي رَزِينٍ عَمِّهِ قَالَ قُلْتُ يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ كَيْفَ يُحْيِي اللَّهُ الْمَوْتَى فَقَالَ أَمَا مَرَرْتَ بِالْوَادِي مُمْحِلًا ثُمَّ تَمُرُّ بِهِ خَضِرًا قَالَ شُعْبَةُ قَالَهُ أَكْثَرَ مِنْ مَرَّتَيْنِ كَذَلِكَ يُحْيِي اللَّهُ الْمَوْتَى.
English Translation
He said, Muhammad ibn Ja'far told us: Shu'ba told us, from Ya'la ibn Ata', from Waki' ibn Hudus, from Abu Razin, his uncle, who said: I said, 'O Messenger of Allah, how does Allah bring the dead to life?' He said, 'Have you not passed by the valley, barren, then you pass by it green?' Shu'ba said: He said this more than twice: 'Just so does Allah bring the dead to life.'
