Yahya Bin Umraan, from Haroun Bin Kharjat, from Abu Baseer, who has narrated the following: Abu Abdullah (asws) regarding the Statement of Allah (azwj) Mighty and Majestic: “[21:84] and We gave him his household (that he had lost) and the like thereof along with them”.

I said, ‘His (Prophet Ayub (as)) children, how was he (as) given the like of them, with them?’ He (asws) said: ‘He (azwj) Revived for him (as) from his (as) children who had died before that of natural causes, and the like (number) of those who had died on that day’. يخرجه - Shaykh Baqir al-Behbudi (Sahih al-Kafi) صحيح - Allamah Baqir al-Majlisi (Mirʾāt al-ʿUqūl fī Sharḥ Akhbār Āl al-Rasūl (16/229))
