Alyasa (Arabic: اليسع, romanized: Alyasaʿ) in Islam is a prophet of God who was sent to guide the Children of Israel. In the Quran, Alyasa is mentioned twice as a noble prophet,[1] and is mentioned both times alongside fellow prophets.[2] He is honored by Muslims as the prophetic successor to Ilyas (Elijah). Islamic sources that identify Elisha with Khidr cite the strong relationship between Khidr and Ilyas in Islamic tradition.[3]
