English Translation

ʿAbd al-Raḥmān and Ibn Jaʿfar narrated to us, they said: Shuʿbah narrated to us, from Yaʿlā ibn ʿAṭāʾ, from Wakīʿ ibn Ḥudus, from his uncle Abū Razīn who said: I said: 'O Messenger of Allāh, how does Allāh bring the dead to life?' He said: 'Have you not passed by a valley that was barren, then passed by it when it was fertile?' — Ibn Jaʿfar said: 'then passed by it when it was green' — I said: 'Indeed.' He said: 'Likewise Allāh brings the dead to life.'
