Page "Joshua" Paragraph 2

Joshua also holds a position of respect to Muslims.

According to the Qur ’ ān, he was, along with Caleb, one of the two believing spies whom Moses had sent to spy the land of Canaan.

All Muslims also see Joshua as the leader of the Israelites, following the death of Moses.

Although some Muslims see Joshua as a prophet, others view him not as prophet but as a saintly man and great leader.

Muslims also believe Joshua to be the " attendant " of Moses mentioned in the Qur ’ ān, before Moses meets Khidr.
