Allah Ta’ala had granted Nabi Isaa (alayhis salaam) the power to raise the dead. Once Hadhrat Isaa (alayhis salaam) with the permission of Allah Ta’ala restored to life Saam, the son of Nabi Nooh (alayhis salaam). When Saam rose from the grave, his hair and beard were white. Hadhrat Isaa (alayhis salaam) said: “Why these white hairs?  During your era there was no old age.” Saam responded: “When I heard the voice (i.e. Nabi Isaa’s command for him to rise), I thought that Qiyaamah had commenced. Its fear whitened my hair.”

     Isaa (alayhis salaam) said: “When did you die?” Saam said: “Four thousand years ago. But, the bitter taste of Maut has not yet ended.”
