'''Jacob''' or '''Ya'qūb''' (Arabic: {{ia|یَعْقوب}}) or '''Israel''' was the son of the prophet [[Isaac]] and a grandson of the prophet [[Abraham]]. He is one of the [[prophets]] mentioned in the [[Qur'an]]. Shiite exegetes of the Qur'an take “Israel” to mean the servant of God, but according to the [[Torah]], Jacob was called so because he struggled with an angel and won. In some Islamic sources, it is appealed to the story of [[Joseph]]’s brothers asking Jacob to intercede and ask God for their forgiveness in order to show the permissibility of [[tawassul]] to someone other than God. Some people have appealed to Jacob’s marrying two sisters at the same time to show the permissibility of such marriage before Islam. Jacob died in [[Egypt]] at the age of 147, and according to his own will, his corpse was moved from Egypt and buried in the Cave of Machpelah in Hebron in Palestine. | '''Jacob''' or '''Ya'qūb''' (Arabic: {{ia|یَعْقوب}}) or '''Israel''' was the son of the prophet [[Isaac]] and a grandson of the prophet [[Abraham]].
