1) "Islamic tradition In the Qur'an, Elijah is the prophet known as Ilyas (إلياس) in Arabic. Similar to the story in the Hebrew Bible, Elijah preaches in opposition to Baal, pleading with the people not to forsake Allah. He also causes a famine and prophesies destruction on Ahab and Jezebel." Source and further information: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Elijah 2) "83. That was the reasoning about Us, which We gave to Abraham (to use) against his people: We raise whom We will, degree after degree: for thy Lord is full of wisdom and knowledge. 84. We gave him Isaac and Jacob: all (three) guided: and before him, We guided Noah, and among his progeny, David, Solomon, Job, Joseph, Moses, and Aaron: thus do We reward those who do good: 85. And Zakariya and John, and Jesus and Elias: all in the ranks of the righteous: 86. And Isma'il and Elisha, and Jonas, and Lot: and to all We gave favour above the nations: 87. (To them) and to their fathers, and progeny and brethren: We chose them, and we guided them to a straight way. 88. This is the guidance of Allah. He giveth that guidance to whom He pleaseth, of His worshippers. If they were to join other gods with Him, all that they did would be vain for them." Source and further information: "Qur'an, Surah 6.

For they were two of our believing Servants. 123. So also was Elias among those sent (by Us). 124. Behold, he said to his people, "Will ye not fear ((Allah))? 125. "Will ye call upon Baal and forsake the Best of Creators,- 126. "(Allah), your Lord and Cherisher and the Lord and Cherisher of your fathers of old?" 127. But they rejected him, and they will certainly be called up (for punishment),- 128. Except the sincere and devoted Servants of Allah (among them). 129. And We left (this blessing) for him among generations (to come) in later times: 130. "Peace and salutation to such as Elias!" 131. Thus indeed do We reward those who do right. 132. For he was one of our believing Servants." Source and further information: "Qur'an, Surah 37. Those Who Set The Ranks, Drawn Up In Ranks" http://www.islamicity.com/mosque/QURAN/37.htm
