Hazrat Uzair (A.S) is the Prophet whom Allah caused to die and then raised back to life after 100 years. This event is mentioned in Surah Al-Baqarah (2:259) of the Holy Qur’an. Allah showed this miracle to demonstrate His power to resurrect the dead and to remove doubts about life after death.

According to the verse, Hazrat Uzair (A.S) passed by a ruined town and wondered how Allah would bring it back to life. Allah caused him to die for 100 years and then resurrected him. When he awoke, he thought he had only been asleep for a day or part of a day. But Allah informed him that he had been dead for a full century, and to show him the miracle, his food remained untouched while his donkey was brought back to life before his eyes.

This incident holds a powerful message about belief in Qiyamah (the Day of Resurrection) and Allah’s absolute control over life and death. It also served as a lesson for others who witnessed or learned about this miracle.
