According to 'Ihsa'i, even the bodies of the [[Prophet (s)]] and [[Imams (a)]] will be corrupted and annihilated in the grave—he distinguishes between their apparent bodies and their original bodies that are highly delicate. Their apparent bodies are accidental to them. These bodies are just created so that people could be able to see them and have contacts with them. [[Hadiths]] concerning the survival of their bodies in the graves concern not their apparent bodies; rather they concern a body without any elemental forms, that is, the hurqaliya'i body which is only visible for other Imams (a) and not for other people.
