Al-Yasa‘ (Template:ArB) is an Islamic prophet mentioned in the Qur'an. In the Bible he is known as Elisha (or sometimes as Eliseus), and is regarded by Christians as a prophet.

The Story of Al-Yasa

Al-Yasa‘ was the son of Safet and the successor to Ilyas. Ilyas, directed by God, appointed him before vanishing into the protection of God. Al-Yasa‘ was thus the next prophet to the Israelites.

He inherited from Ilyas the obstinate king and queen of Israel who would not listen to any reason. Al-Yasa‘ did many miraculous deeds to show them the powers of God but they called him a magician like they had called Ilyas before him. They continued their defiance throughout his life.

After a period of time the Israelites were conquered by the Assyrians. The Assyrians destroyed the Temple Mount and inflicted great damage on Israel.
