Khidr and Melchizedek In Islam, there is no mention of Melchizedek in the Quran or in early Islamic exegesis or literature. Some later commentators, including Abdullah Yusuf Ali, however, did suggest a link between Melchizedek and Khidr - a revered figure in Islam whom the Quran describes as a righteous servant of God and who possessed great wisdom or mystic knowledge. Khidr is most often said to be a contemporary of Moses. In medieval Islamic tradition, Khidr is variously described as a messenger or a prophet. Abdullah Yusuf Ali referred to St. Pauls allegory of Melchizedek in his Epistle to the Hebrews as a parallel to the Muslim view of Khidr. In Ismailism, however, Melchizedek is of greater importance as one of the Permanent Imams; that is those who guide people through the ages of history. near-death/stclaire.html :)
