People of Ya-Sin

1585-1590 Islamic manuscript depicting prophets and disciples of Isa visiting the ruler of the people of Ya-Sin. Two of them Sadiq and Saduq (John and Paul) raise a dead man to convince him of the Gospel. Next to the king sits Shalum (Simon-Peter) pointing at the miracle.

People of Ya-Sin or Ashab al-Qarya (Arabic: أصحاب القرية) is the phrase used by Muslims to refer to an ancient community that is mentioned in the 36th surah of the Quran[1] as the People of the City or the Companions of the City. The location and people of this city has been the subject of much scholarly debate in Islam.
