Most of the scholars say that Idrees is a nabiy that came between Sheeth and Nuh ‘alayhis salaam. There is an opinion of Ibn Mas’ood that Idrees is the same nabiy as Ilyaas, but that is a lonely opinion; the rest say that he was a nabiy between Sheeth and Nuh.

Ibn Ishaaq said that he was the first man to write with a pen. He was born when Adam still had 308 years of his life to live.

Allah did mention of Idrees in the Qur’aan: “And mention in the Book (the Quran) Idris (Enoch).Verily! He was a man of truth, (and) a Prophet. And We raised him to a high station.” (19:56-57)

During the Night Journey, the Prophet sallallahu ‘alayhi wa sallam passed by him in fourth heaven. In a hadith, Ibn ‘Abbaas asked Ka’b what was meant by the part of the verse which says, “And We raised him to a high station.” Ka’b explained:

Allah revealed to Idris: ‘I would raise for you every day the same amount of the deeds of all Adam’s children’ – perhaps meaning of his time only. So Idris wanted to increase his deeds and devotion. A friend of his from the angels visited and Idris said to him: ‘Allah has revealed to me such and such, o could you please speak to the angel of death, so I could increase my deeds.’ The angel carried him on his wings and went up into the heaven. When it was the fourth heaven, they met the angel of death, who was descending down towards earth. The angel spoke to him, about what Idris had spoken to him before. The angel of death said: ‘But where is Idris?’ He replied, ‘He is upon my back.’ The angel of death said: ‘How astonishing! I was sent and told to seize his soul in the fourth heaven. I kept thinking how I could seize it in the fourth heaven when he was on the earth?’ Then he took his soul out of his body, and that is what is meant by the verse: ‘And We raised him to a high station.’
