STORY OF THE PROPHET ILYAS (AS)

Prophecy of the Prophet Ilyas (as)

And Zakariyya, Yahya, 'Isa and Ilyas. All of them were among the righteous. (Surat al-An'am, 85)

Ilyas was one of the Messengers. (Surat as-Saffat, 123)

He truly was one of Our servants who are believers. (Surat as-Saffat, 132)

Communication of the Prophet Ilyas (as)

When he said to his people, 'Will you not guard against evil? Do you call on Baal and abandon the Best of Creators? Allah is your Lord and Lord of your forefathers, the previous peoples,' they denied him and so they will be among those arraigned –except for Allah's chosen servants. We left the later people saying of him, 'Peace be upon the family of Yasin!' That is how We recompense good-doers. (Surat as-Saffat, 124-131)
