The briefness of the indication of the Qur'an to al-Yasa' (a) and the little information in interpretation and [[hadith]]s sources about him has caused many scholars to identify al-Yasa' (a) with some other prophets. Some exegetes considered al-Yasa' (a) the same the Prophet Yusha' (a) (Joshua), and considered the name al-Yasa' (a) adopted from it. Some considered him to be actually [[Khidr (a)]]. On the opposite, some others considered him a prophet having this name from the progeny of [[Abraham (a)]] | The briefness of the indication of the Qur'an to al-Yasa' (a) and the little information in interpretation and [[hadith]]s sources about him has caused many scholars to identify al-Yasa' (a) with some other prophets.<ref>Ḥāj Manūchihrī, ''al-Yasaʿ'', vol. 10, p. 121.</ref> Some exegetes considered al-Yasa' (a) the same the Prophet Yusha' (a) (Joshua), and considered the name al-Yasa' (a) adopted from it.<ref>Makārim Shīrāzī, ''Tafsīr-i nimūna'', vol. 5, p. 326.</ref> Some considered him to be actually [[Khidr (a)]].<ref>Bayḍāwī, ''Anwār al-tanzīl wa asrār al-taʾwīl'', vol. 3, p. 287.</ref> On the opposite, some others considered him a prophet having this name from the progeny of [[Abraham (a)]]<ref>Makārim Shīrāzī, ''Tafsīr-i nimūna'', vol. 5, p. 326.</ref> and one of the prophets of Israelites.<ref>Ṭabāṭabāʾī, ''al-Mīzān'', vol. 7, p. 243.</ref> | ||

In his youth, when al-Yasa' (a) had become ill, regained his health through the prayer of Ilyas (a) and afterwards became his disciple and accompanied him everywhere. After Ilyas (a) ascended to the skies, al-Yasa' (a) 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' (a). Also during his prophethood, many of [[Israelites]] accepted his invitation. | In his youth, when al-Yasa' (a) had become ill, regained his health through the prayer of Ilyas (a) and afterwards became his disciple and accompanied him everywhere.
