580 - وَ رُوِيَ عَنْ عَمَّارٍ اَلسَّابَاطِيِّ أَنَّهُ قَالَ: سُئِلَ أَبُو عَبْدِ اَللَّهِ عَلَيْهِ اَلسَّلاَمُ عَنِ اَلْمَيِّتِ هَلْ يَبْلَى جَسَدُهُ فَقَالَ «نَعَمْ حَتَّى لاَ يَبْقَى لَحْمٌ وَ لاَ عَظْمٌ إِلاَّ طِينَتُهُ اَلَّتِي خُلِقَ مِنْهَا فَإِنَّهَا لاَ تَبْلَى تَبْقَى فِي اَلْقَبْرِ مُسْتَدِيرَةً حَتَّى يُخْلَقَ مِنْهَا كَمَا خُلِقَ أَوَّلَ مَرَّةٍ.
Hadith.580 - It was narrated from Ammar al-Sabati that He said: Imam Jafar ibn Muhammad Al-Sadiq was asked whether the body of the deceased decays.
Imam
said: "Yes, until there remains no flesh or bones except for the original clay from which he was created. It does not decay but remains in the grave, encircling itself, until he is recreated from it just as he was created the first time."
