How old were the prophets Abraham, Moses and Jesus, peace be upon them, when they died?
Source: FtawySummary from Ftawy's records · added here Oct 24, 2026
There is no definitive determination of the prophets' ages. Some books mention that Abraham and Moses died at the age of 120. Jesus, peace be upon him, has not yet died; rather, he was raised and will return to Earth before he dies. There is disagreement regarding his age when he was raised, with some saying 33 and others 120. It is preferable to focus on what benefits one in matters of religion and worldly life.
