Hashim bin Zaid narrates: I saw Imam Ali Naqi (a) that when a born-blind man was brought to him, the Imam cured him. I also saw him prepare a mock-up of a bird from mud and then blow upon it and it flew away alive.
After observing this miracle, I said,
“There is no difference between you and Prophet Isa (a).” He replied,
“I am from him and he is from me.”
Muhammad bin Sinan Zahiri narrates: Imam Ali Naqi (a) was returning to Medina after performing the Hajj. On the way he came across a Khorasani man crying on his dead donkey and asking how he would transport his luggage.
When the Imam passed near this man, someone told him that this man was devoted Ahle Bayt (a). So the Imam went to the dead animal and said,
“The cow of Bani Israel was not more sacred than me. When a piece of that cow was touched to the dead man, he became alive.”
Then he kicked that dead donkey, saying,
“Arise, by the permission of God.”
It started moving and then stood up! The native of Khorasan loaded his luggage and departed from there.
After this incident, from wherever he passed, onlookers used to point out the Imam and say, “He made the Khorasani’s dead donkey alive.”
