Al-Yasa



         


Al-Yasa is a prophet in the Quran. In the Bible he is known as Elisha.

Al-Yasa was the sucessor to Ilyas. Al-Yasa' was the son of Safet. Ilyas apointed 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.
