... the people.

In al-Tirmidhi, within the context of the hadith narrated by Suhayb traced back to the Prophet (ﷺ) regarding the story of the People of the Ditch (Ashab al-Ukhdud), it is mentioned that the boy whom the king killed, whereupon all the people believed and said, 'We believe in the Lord of the boy,' was discovered during the era of 'Umar ibn al-Khattab (may Allah be pleased with him) with his hand placed upon his wound, in the exact state he was in when he died.

Muhammad ibn Ka'b al-Qurazi, Zayd ibn Aslam, and others also mentioned the account of 'Abdullah ibn al-Thamir, who was the chief figure of the ditch. His story resembles the account of the boy recorded in al-Tirmidhi, and it is related that he was discovered during the era of 'Umar in Najran with his hand placed upon his wound, and his wound was still bleeding.

Ibn Ishaq likewise narrated this on the authority of 'Abdullah ibn Abi Bakr ibn Muhammad ibn 'Amr ibn Hazm.

Ibn Abi al-Dunya mentioned in his book 'al-Qubur' the story of Daniel (Danyal) when Abu Musa al-Ash'ari (may Allah be pleased with him) found him in al-Sus, along with numerous other accounts from the predecessors conveying this same meaning.

Ibn al-Jawzi mentioned that when the noble Sharif Abu Ja'far ibn Abi Musa was buried beside the grave of Imam Ahmad, one hundred years after the demise of Imam Ahmad, the shroud of Imam Ahmad was seen rustling as though it were fresh.

He said: Muhammad ibn Abi Mansur ibn Yusuf narrated to us, saying: My father narrated to me, saying: 'Among those whose remains were uncovered was Ibn Sham'un, when he was transferred from his home to the graveyard of Imam Ahmad after forty years, and his shroud was still rustling.'
