Allah Maɗaukakin Sarki ya ce:

Almighty Allah said:

Shin ba ka yi tunani ba (ya Muhammad) game da waɗanda suka fita daga gidajensu da dubbai, suna tsoron mutuwa? Sai Allah ya ce musu, "Ku mutu." Sannan ya rayar da su. Lallai Allah Mai falala ne ga mutane, amma yawancin mutane ba sa godiya. (Suratul Baqara 2:243 Alƙur'ani).

"Did you (O Muhammad) not think of those who went forth from their homes in thousands, fearing death? Allah said to them, "Die." And then He restored them to life. Truly, Allah is full of Bounty to mankind, but most men think not. (Ch 2:243 Quran).

Muhammad Ibn Ishaaq ya ruwaito daga Wahb Ibn Munbah cewa, lokacin da Allah ya karɓi Kalih Ibn Yofra (Jephtha) bayan Joshua, Ezekiel Ibn Buzi ya gaje shi a matsayin annabi ga Banu Isra'ila. Mutanen sun gudu daga Falasdinu saboda tsoron annoba, suka zauna a wani fili mai tudu. Allah ya ce musu:

Mohammad Ibn Ishaaq stated of Wahb Ibn Munbah said that when Allah took Kalih Ibn Yofra (Jephtha) after Joshua, Ezekiel Ibn Buzi succeeded him as the prophet to the Israelites. The people had fled from Palestine for fear of the plague and settled on a plateau. Allah said to them:

"Ku mutu," sai kuwa dukansu suka mutu. Bayan ƙarni da dama, sai Ezekiel ya wuce ta wurinsu, yana mamaki, ya tsaya a kansu. Sai wata murya ta zo: "Kana so Allah ya tayar da su yayin da kai kana kallo ne?" Ya ce: "Eh." Sai aka umurce shi ya kira ƙasusuwan nan su haɗu, su kuma lulluɓe da nama. Sai ya kira su da ikon Allah, mutanen kuwa suka tashi suna tsarkake Allah da murya ɗaya.

"Die you all," and they all perished. A few centuries passed, and then Ezekiel, passing by, stopped over them, wondering. There came a voice: "Do you want Allah to resurrect them while you watch?" He said: "Yes." Then he was commanded to call those bones to join one to the other and to be covered with flesh. So he called them by the power of Allah, and the people arose and glorified Allah in the voice of one man.

Daga Ibn Abbas, an ce wannan wuri ana kiransa "Damardan." Mutanensa sun kamu da annoba, sai suka gudu, yayin da wata ƙungiya daga cikinsu da suka rage a ƙauyen suka mutu. Mala'ikan Mutuwa ya kira waɗanda suka rage ya ce: "Ku mutu duka," sai suka mutu. Bayan lokaci mai tsawo, wani annabi mai suna Ezekiel ya wuce ta wurinsu, ya tsaya yana mamakinsu, yana murɗa muƙamuƙinsa da yatsunsa. Allah ya yi masa wahayi: "Kana so Na nuna maka yadda Nake rayar da su?" Ya ce: "Eh." Niyyarsa ita ce ya yi mamakin ikon Allah a kansu. Wata murya ta ce masa: "Ka kira: 'Ya ku ƙasusuwa, Allah yana umurtar ku da ku taru.'" Ƙasusuwan suka fara tashi zuwa juna har suka zama gawarwaki. Sa'an nan Allah ya yi masa wahayi ya ce: "Ka kira: 'Ya ku ƙasusuwa, Allah yana umurtar ku da ku sanya nama da jini da tufafin da suka mutu da su.'" Wata murya kuma ta ce: "Allah yana umurtar ku da ku kira jikkunan su tashi." Sai suka tashi. Da suka dawo rayuwa, suka ce: "Tsarki ya tabbata a gare Ka, ya Ubangiji, kuma godiya duka ta Tasa ce." Ibn 'Abbas ya ruwaito cewa waɗanda aka tayar da su su ne dubu huɗu, yayin da Ibn Salih ya ce dubu tara ne.

According to Ibn Abbas, this place was called "Damardan." Its people were inflicted with plague, so they fled, while a group of them who remained in the village perished. The Angel of Death called to the survivors: "Die you all," and they perished. After a long time a prophet called Ezekiel passed by them and stood wondering over them, twisting his jaws and fingers. Allah revealed to him: "Do you want Me to show you how I bring them back to life? He said: "Yes." His idea was to marvel at the power of Allah over them. A voice said to him: "Call: 'O you bones, Allah commands you to gather up.'" The bones began to fly one to the other until they became skeletons. Then Allah revealed to him to say; "Call: 'O you bones, Allah commands you to put on flesh and blood and the clothes in which they had died.'" And a voice said: "Allah commands you to call the bodies to rise." And they rose. When they returned to life they said: "Blessed are You, O Lord, and all praises is Yours." Ibn 'Abbas reported that the dead who were resurrected were four thousand, while Ibn Salih said they were nine thousand.

Dangane da annoba, Abu Ubaidah Ibn Al-Jarrah ya ruwaito cewa 'Umar Ibn Al-Khattab yana kan hanyarsa zuwa Sham, ya kai har Sarg, sai shugaban rundunar Musulmi, Abu Ubaidah Ibn Al-Jarrah, da sahabbansa suka same shi suka sanar da shi cewa wata annoba ta barke a Sham. 'Umar ya tuna maganar Manzon Allah ﷺ: "Idan annoba ta kasance a cikin ƙasar da kuke zaune, kada ku fita kuna gudun ta, kuma idan kun ji tana cikin wata ƙasa, kada ku shiga ta." Sai 'Umar ya yabi Allah, sannan ya juya ya tafi.

Regarding plague, Abu Ubaidah Ibn Al-Jarrah related that 'Umar Ibn Al-Khattab was on his way to Syria and had reached Sarg when the leader of the Muslim army, Abu Ubaidah Ibn Al-Jarrah, and his companions met him and told him of a pestilence that had broken out in Syria. 'Umar remember the Prophet's (pbuh) saying: "If it (plague) be in a country where you are staying, do not go out fleeing it, and if you hear it is in a country, do not enter it." Umar praised Allah and then went off.

Muhammad Ibn Ishaaq ya ce ba mu san tsawon lokacin da Ezekiel (a.s.) ya zauna a cikin Bani Isra'ila kafin Allah ya ɗauke shi ba. Bayan sa, Bani Isra'ila sun karkata daga hanya madaidaiciya ta rayuwa, kamar yadda suka saba yi, suka watsar da alkawarin Allah da suka yi da su. Suka bauta wa gumaka da yawa, daga cikinsu akwai Ba'al, sai Allah ya aiko musu da Annabi Ilyas (a.s.).

Muhammad Ibn Ishaaq stated that we do not know how long Ezekiel (pbuh) stayed among the Israelites before Allah took him away. After him, the Israelites deviated from the right way of life, as they usually did, and deserted Allah's covenant with them. They worshipped many idols, among them Ba'al, so Allah sent to them the Prophet Elijah (pbuh).
