Tafsir

The Prophet: (al-Yasa`: Elisha) علیہ السلام

In Verse Sad 38:48 , it was said: وَالْيَسَعَ (and [ remember ] al-Yasa`). Sayyidna al-Yasa علیہ السلام is a prophet from among the prophets of Bani Isra'il, peace be upon them all. He has been mentioned in the Qur'an only at two places, once in Surah Al-An'am and then, here in Surah Sad . No details have been mentioned at any of the two places, rather his name appears there as part of a list of the blessed prophets.

Historical chronicles report that he is a cousin of Sayyidna Ilyas علیہ السلام and was his deputy. He lived in his company and was made a prophet after him. Details about him appear in the Bible, the Book of Kings I, Chapter 19 , and Kings II, Chapter 2 , and elsewhere. There he has been mentioned by the name of اِلِیشَع بن سافط (Elisha son of Safit).
