أَوْ كَ ٱلَّذِى مَرَّ عَلَىٰ قَرْيَةٍ وَ هِىَ خَاوِيَةٌ عَلَىٰ عُرُوشِ هَا قَالَ أَنَّىٰ يُحْىِۦ هَٰذِهِ ٱللَّهُ بَعْدَ مَوْتِ هَا فَ أَمَاتَ هُ ٱللَّهُ مِا۟ئَةَ عَامٍ ثُمَّ بَعَثَ هُۥ قَالَ كَمْ لَبِثْ تَ قَالَ لَبِثْ تُ يَوْمًا أَوْ بَعْضَ يَوْمٍ قَالَ بَل لَّبِثْ تَ مِا۟ئَةَ عَامٍ فَ ٱنظُرْ إِلَىٰ طَعَامِ كَ وَ شَرَابِ كَ لَمْ يَتَسَنَّهْ وَ ٱنظُرْ إِلَىٰ حِمَارِ كَ وَ لِ نَجْعَلَ كَ ءَايَةً لِّ ل نَّاسِ وَ ٱنظُرْ إِلَى ٱلْ عِظَامِ كَيْفَ نُنشِزُ هَا ثُمَّ نَكْسُو هَا لَحْمًا فَ لَمَّا تَبَيَّنَ لَ هُۥ قَالَ أَعْلَمُ أَنَّ ٱللَّهَ عَلَىٰ كُلِّ شَىْءٍ قَدِيرٌ

Or [consider such an example] as the one who passed by a township which had fallen into ruin. He said, "How will Allah bring this to life after its death?" So Allah caused him to die for a hundred years; then He revived him. He said, "How long have you remained?" The man said, "I have remained a day or part of a day." He said, "Rather, you have remained one hundred years. Look at your food and your drink; it has not changed with time. And look at your donkey; and We will make you a sign for the people. And look at the bones [of this donkey] - how We raise them and then We cover them with flesh." And when it became clear to him, he said, "I know that Allah is over all things competent."
