We are going to know about prophet dhul-kifl
The Story of Dhul-Kifl (also referred to as Zul-Kifl) is a bit of a mystery.
There is not much information known or recorded and a lot of debate as to whether he truly is a Prophet.
The literal meaning of Dhul-Kifl is “Possessor of the Fold”. What we know about him is that he was a righteous man and ‘company of the good’ who was also extremely patient. This is based off two mentions of Dhul-Kifl in the Glorious Qur’an.
The first is from Surah Al-Anbya ayat 85-86:
The second mention in Qur’an is from Surah Sad ayat 45-49:
“And remember Our servants, Abraham, Isaac and Jacob – those of strength and [religious] vision. Indeed, We chose them for an exclusive quality: remembrance of the home [of the Hereafter]. And indeed they are, to Us, among the chosen and outstanding. And remember Ishmael, Elisha and Dhul-Kifl, and all are among the outstanding. This is a reminder. And indeed, for the righteous is a good place of return.”
According to Ibn Kather it’s seems logical that him being mentioned in the Glorious Qur’an among those other Prophets then, through association, he should also be considered a prophet.
However, many other famous Quranic commentators like Imam Ibn Jarir refrained from making such decisive comments. He believes that Dhul-Kifl was a saint and just, but no evidence of being a prophet.
Imam Ibn Jarir gives an account of Dhul-Kifl which provides some insight into the Prophet’s life.
When Al-Yasa (Elisha) grew old he was looking to appoint a successor that could help guide the Israelites and needed someone with calm demeanor and a clear mind. He assembled a group of companions and set out three conditions which he believed would be a testament to great leader,
“the person who will be considered for my replacement is one who fasts year around during the day, remembers Allah in prayer throughout the night, and must not ever lose his temper.”
A relatively unknown person who was held in contempt by the people, stood up and offered himself for the job. Prophet Yasa asked him whether these three conditions were met. The man replied yes to all three but for whatever reason Yasa did not believe his claim and rejected him.
After few more days past, Yasa gathered the group again and repeated if his conditions were met. Everyone remained seated besides the same man. Yasa seeing his persistence appointed the man to serve as his deputy.
But to truly test the Man’s will he asked a few people to try and persuade the man into doing something that would result in him being removed from being his deputy.
They all tried and they all failed.
Then Iblis (satan) offered his services to Al-Yasa, “Leave him to me. I will take care of him.”
