ذو الكفل عَلَيْهِ ٱلسَّلَامُ
Dhul-Kifl
Allah mentions Dhul-Kifl together with Ismail and Idris among the patient. He admitted them into His mercy, for they were among the righteous. He is also counted among the best of people. The Quran does not give further details of his life.
From the Quran
وَإِسۡمَٰعِيلَ وَإِدۡرِيسَ وَذَا ٱلۡكِفۡلِۖ كُلّٞ مِّنَ ٱلصَّـٰبِرِينَ
And [mention] Ishmael and Idrees and Dhul-Kifl; all were of the patient.
وَأَدۡخَلۡنَٰهُمۡ فِي رَحۡمَتِنَآۖ إِنَّهُم مِّنَ ٱلصَّـٰلِحِينَ
And We admitted them into Our mercy. Indeed, they were of the righteous.
وَٱذۡكُرۡ إِسۡمَٰعِيلَ وَٱلۡيَسَعَ وَذَا ٱلۡكِفۡلِۖ وَكُلّٞ مِّنَ ٱلۡأَخۡيَارِ
And remember Ishmael, Elisha and Dhul-Kifl, and all are among the outstanding.
Peace be upon them all. Stories are summarised from the Quran only; we do not add details from other sources.
