The Rare Sermons of Jesus
Taken from The Ghazali’s Heritage Collection
As for the daughter of Al Ashir, a night had passed since her death. So Jesus supplicated to Allah
so she lived and bore children. The people who witnessed these happenings said: ‘You revive those who have been dead for a short-time so maybe they were not dead merely temporarily paralyzed so revive for us Shem, the son of Prophet Noah.’ So he said to them: ‘Show me his tomb.’ So he went with the tribe until they reached his tomb and then supplicated to Allah
. And Shem rose up from his tomb, his hair having turned gray. So Jesus asked him: ‘How is it that your hair has turned gray, in your time hair used not to turn gray?’ He replied: ‘O spirit of Allah
, when you called me I heard a voice telling me to answer the spirit of Allah
so I thought the Day of Judgment had come and out of fear my hair turned gray.’ Then Jesus asked him about the pain of the departure of the spirit from the body so he answered: ‘O spirit of Allah
, surely, the bitterness of the departure never leaves my throat.’ – and he had been dead for more than four thousand years. Then Shem said to the tribe: ‘Believe him, for surely he is a Prophet.’ But some believed and others disbelieved saying: ‘This is magic.’”
