13- وَ بِهَذَا الْإِسْنَادِ عَنْ أَحْمَدَ بْنِ الْحَسَنِ الْمِيثَمِيِّ عَنِ الْحَسَنِ بْنِ مَحْبُوبٍ عَنْ مُؤْمِنِ الطَّاقِ عَنْ سَلَّامِ بْنِ الْمُسْتَنِيرِ عَنْ أَبِي جَعْفَرٍ ع فِي قَوْلِ اللَّهِ عَزَّ وَ جَلَ اعْلَمُوا أَنَّ اللَّهَ يُحْيِ الْأَرْضَ بَعْدَ مَوْتِها قَالَ يُحْيِيهَا اللَّهُ عَزَّ وَ جَلَّ بِالْقَائِمِ ع بَعْدَ مَوْتِهَا [يَعْنِي] بِمَوْتِهَا كُفْرَ أَهْلِهَا وَ الْكَافِرُ مَيِّتٌ.
And through the same chain of narrators from Ahmad bin Hasan Mithami from Hasan bin Mahboob from Momin Taq from Salam bin Mustanir from Abi Ja’far عليه السلام that he said regarding the words of Allah, the Mighty and Sublime:
Know that Allah gives life to the earth after its death.26
“It means that Allah, the Mighty and Sublime will revive it through the Qaim after its death - that is death due to the disbelief of its inhabitants – since disbelievers are dead people.”
