146. There was a large block of stones below, which was the fountain of the water of immortality. Both of them rested there. When the fried fish, which they had brought with them, came into contact with this water, it became alive and swam into the water and became a niche or an arch therein. Hazrat Yusha (On whom be peace) was awake, but he forgot to mention this to him. Both men then moved on from this place.

147.This was either due to the miracles of the Prophet or due to the miraculous effect of this blessed water that Hazrat Khizr (On whom be peace) was frequenting it. The air of the land in which pious servants of Allah Almighty dwell has the effect of granting life to the people. Hence, every grain of Madina Munawwarah, too, can have the curative effect for all our physical illnesses.
