رسولُ اللَّهِ صلى اللَّه عليه وآله :  خَرَجَت بَنو إسرائيلَ في طَلَبِ زَكريّا ليَقتُلوهُ ، فخَرَجَ هارِباً في البَرِّيَّةِ ، فانفَرَجَت لَهُ شَجَرَةٌ فدَخَلَ فيها فَبَقِيَت هُدبَةٌ مِن ثَوبهِ، فجاؤوا حتّى‏ قامُوا علَيها فنَشَروهُ بالمِنشارِ . كنز العمّال : 32330 .

 The Prophet (SAWA) said, 'The Children of Israel went to seek out Zacharias in order to kill him, so he left fleeing into the desert. A tree parted open and he entered into it, but the hem of his clothes remained outside, so they came and stood around it, and sawed through him with a saw.' Kanz al-Ummal, no. 32329
