مطابقة عمر عيسى ابن مريم ومعاذ بن جبل
The age of Isa son of Maryam (peace be upon him) matching that of Mu'adh bin Jabal (may Allah be pleased with him)
Hadith Number: 5257
اخبرني محمد بن المؤمل، حدثنا الفضل بن محمد، حدثنا احمد بن حنبل، حدثنا إبراهيم، عن يحيى بن سعيد، قال: قبض معاذ بن جبل وهو ابن ثلاث او اربع وثلاثين سنة (2). هذا القول من يحيى بن سعيد اقرب إلى الصحة من الذي تقدم!
Yahya bin Sa'id says that the soul of Mu'adh bin Jabal (may Allah be pleased with him) was taken at the age of thirty-three or thirty-four.
Imam al-Hakim says that this statement of Yahya bin Sa'id is closer to being correct than the previous statements!

Technical note / Defect ('illah): (2) It has just appeared, from Yahya bin Sa'id al-Ansari, that Mu'adh (may Allah be pleased with him) was "twenty-eight (28) years" old at the time of his death, and this is the "authentic and well-known" statement reported from him (Yahya). As for "Ibrahim", who narrates from Yahya here, we have not been able to identify him.
(2) تقدَّم عن يحيى بن سعيد الأنصاري قريبًا: أن معاذًا يومَ توفي كان ابن ثمان وعشرين، وهو الصحيح المشهور عنه. أما إبراهيم الراوي عن يحيى هنا فلم نتبيّنه.
