The
Qur'anic account of the
disciples (
Arabic الحواريون
al-ḥawāriyūn) of
Jesus does not include their names, numbers, or any detailed accounts of their lives. Muslim
exegesis, however, more-or-less agrees with the
New Testament list and says that the disciples included
Peter,
Philip,
Thomas,
Bartholomew,
Matthew,
Andrew,
James,
Jude,
John and
Simon the Zealot. Scholars generally draw a parallel with the disciples of Jesus and the
disciples of Muhammad, who followed Muhammad during his lifetime.
