Re: Azra
in reply to a message by Ivana & Eric
Azra is basically Hebrew name . Azra was Jew prophet of God( Yahweh). He lived in Babylonia during the period of serfdom of Jews there. There is Old Testament of Azra also where you can find verses about Babel ( Babylonia). This prophet is also part of faith and revered in religion of Islam, where he is called Azeez or Uzair( peace be upon him). There is reference in Quran about him. He slept for 100 years. His mule died and only skeleton was there when he awoke after 100 years . His food was hot and fresh. Allah taught him how there will be new life after death.
