After bringing 100 incidences of people meeting Hazrat Mahdi (atfs) during the period of major occultation, Janab Muhaddith Noori (ar) brings a discussion about the long life of Hazrat at the end of this chapter.
He provides many examples of people with long lives. The examples brought by him are acceptable to even Ahle Sunnat.
Among the many examples of people with long life, he mentions about Prophet Khizr (as).
He mentions that Shaykh Saduq(ar) has narrated a lengthy traditional report from Imam Ja’far Sadiq (a.s.) that:
_As for the Righteous Servant, Khizr (a.s.); the Almighty Allah bestowed him with a long lifespan not due to the fact that He had made him a Prophet, or because a book was revealed to him, nor that he brought a new Shariat nullifying the previous one, nor that He made him an Imam and required the people to follow him, nor because his obedience was compulsory. Rather it was because it was there in the knowledge of Allah, the Blessed and the High, that during occultation the age of Qaaem (a.s.) would be prolonged to an extent that people would not believe it, and they would deny a long age, He prolonged the age of the Righteous Servant, Khizr (a.s.) without any justification, except that it be a basis for proving the age of Qaaem (a.s.) so that the arguments and proofs of the opponents may be invalidated and that people may not have any argument against the Almighty Allah._
Shaykh Saduq(ar) has also narrated from Imam Ali Reza (a.s.) that he said:
_“..Indeed he [Prophet Khizr(as)] comes to us and he greets us by Salaam. His voice is audible, but he could not be seen. And he is present wherever his name is mentioned. Thus, whomsoever of you mentions him, must say Salaam to him. Every year he is present in the ceremonies of Hajj. He performs all the rituals and he camps at Arafat; says Amen to the prayers of believers. Through him [Prophet Khizr(as)] the Almighty Allah dispels the loneliness of our Qaaem (a.s.) during his occultation._
*May the Almighty grant permission to our Master to reappear and establish His kingdom on the earth thereby purifying the earth and spreading justice and equity in it.*
