His name is mentioned in the [[Qur'an]] twice, and the [[Bible]] has introduced him in more details comparing to the Qur'an. Some [[exegetes]] of the Qur'an considered al-Yasa' a name for some other figures such as [[Khidr]] and [[Yusha']] [Joshua]. In [[Shi'a]] hadiths, some [[miracle]]s such as curing the ill and walking on water are narrated about him. | ||

Some exegetes considered | Briefness of the indication of the Qur'an to al-Yasa' and the little information in interpretation and [[hadith]]s sources about him has caused many scholars to consider al-Yasa' a title of another prophet. Some exegetes considered al-Yasa' the same the prophet Yusha' [Joshua], and considered the name al-Yasa' adopted from it. Some considered him to be actually [[Prophet Khidr]]. On the opposite, some others considered him a prophet having this name from the progeny of [[Ibrahim|Abraham]] (a) and one of the prophets of Israelites. | ||

After Ilyas ascended to the skies, al-Yasa' was chosen for [[prophethood]]. Based on hadiths, the conditions of observing religion changed in his time. Ahab, the king of Israelites and his wife who led people toward idol-worshipping perished at the time of al-Yasa'. Also during his prophethood, many of [[Israelites]] accepted his invitation. | ||
