The Book of Occultation — al-Ṭūsī · Hadith 257 (#Ḥadīth #22)
Chapter 24 | Stories of people with long lifespans from Arabs and non-Arabs are famous and chronicled in books and history.
وأما الفرس فإنها تزعم أن فيما تقدم من ملوكها جماعة طالت أعمارهم، فيروون أن الضحاك صاحب الحيتين عاش ألف سنة ومائتي سنة وأفريدون العادل عاش فوق ألف سنة،ويقولون إن الملك الذي أحدث المهرجان عاش ألفي سنة وخمسمائة سنة استتر منها عن قومه ستمائة سنة.وغير ذلك مما هو موجود في تواريخهم وكتبهم لا نطول بذكرها. فكيف يقال إن ما ذكرناه في صاحب الزمان خارج عن العادات؟
As for the Persians: According to them, in the past, there were some rulers, who got long life spans. Therefore they have narrated that Zahhak, the owner of two snakes [a couple of snakes perched on his shoulders] lived for 1200 years; or Faridoon the Just, lived for more than a thousand years. In the same way they say: A king initiated the celebration of Meherjan festival (spring feast). He lived for 2500 years after which he disappeared from his people for 600 years. In addition, there are those mentioned in the history of Iranians and their books and we will not prolong this book by quoting them. Thus [with attention to all these long-lived persons] how can it be said that the long lifespan of the Master of the Age is extraordinary?
