In Jewish [[rabbinic literature]], especially the [[aggadah]], Jeremiah and [[Moses]] are always mentioned together,<ref>This article incorporates text from the 1901–1906 ''[[Jewish Encyclopedia]]'', a publication now in the [[public domain]].</ref> An ancient [[midrash]], in connection with {{bibleverse|Deuteronomy|18:18|HE}} presented their life and works in parallel, in which "a prophet like Moses" is promised, states Jeremiah's time as prophet was similar with Moses, which is 40 years. Moses also prophesied that his own tribe, [[Tribe of Levi]], will rebel against Judah, while Jeremiah's tribe would in turn rebel against Jeremiah himself. In the year of the prophesied event, Moses also said that he himself will be exiled into watery areas, while Jeremiah will be jailed in a pit. Then Moses will be saved by a slave of [[Pharaoh]]'s daughter, while subsequently Jeremiah will be rescued by a slave named [[Ebed-melech]]; After such, the Deuteronomy closed the chapter with Moses reprimanded the people in discourses; so did Jeremiah.<ref>[[Pesiqta de-Rav Kahana|Pesiqta]], ed. Buber, xiii. 112a.</ref> The prophet [[Ezekiel]] was a son of Jeremiah according to rabbinic literature.<ref>{{Cite web|url=http://jewishencyclopedia.com/articles/5950-ezekiel|title=EZEKIEL – JewishEncyclopedia.com|website=jewishencyclopedia.com}}</ref> In [https://www.biblegateway.com/passage/?search=2%20Maccabees+2&version=DRA 2 Maccabees 2:4ff], Jeremiah is credited with hiding the Ark, incense altar, and tabernacle on the mountain of Moses.{{sfn|Collins|1972|pp=101–}}

In Arabic, Jeremiah's name is usually vocalised ''Irmiyā'', ''Armiyā'' or ''Ūrmiyā''.<ref>see ''Tād̲j̲ al-ʿArūs'', x. 157.</ref><!-- and these forms are occasionally given with madd also (''Irmiyāʾ'').---- Comment this back in once you clarify what "madd" means. Answer: "Madd" is prolonged vowel of certain word or character, as example, Irmiyā was pronounced as "Irmiyaa" instead of "Irmiya".. there are various types of "Madd" which influenced how long it is, depended on the context of the words and the sentences--> However, since the name of Jeremiah is not explicitly mentioned in the [[Quran]] and [[Hadith]], belief in Jeremiah was considered not part of the [[Five Pillars of Islam]] by the academic community of Islam, regarding Jeremiah instead historical supplementary material, since his name was only found in the [[tafsir]] and other non-canonical Islamic [[literature]]. Nevertheless, since his status as prophet was generally undisputed in Islam, Muslims apply "PBUH" or "Peace Belong Upon Him" as an honorific for Jeremiah.<ref name="Jeremiah according to Islamic tenet" />

The narratives of Jeremiah in Islamic belief closely correspond with the account given in the [[Hebrew Bible]], and are found in the [[Ibn Kathir]] work of [[al-Bidaya wa l-Nihaya]] & ''Qisas Al-Anbiya'' (History of prophets), [[Al-Tabari]] work of "[[History of the Prophets and Kings]]", and [[Ibn Asakir]] work of "History of Damascus".<ref name="Jeremiah according to Islamic tenet">{{cite web |author1=Muhammad Al-Munajjid |author1-link=Muhammad Al-Munajjid |title=هل " أرميا " نبي من أنبياء الله ، يجب علينا الإيمان به ؟ |url=https://islamqa.info/ar/answers/240242/%D9%87%D9%84-%D8%A7%D8%B1%D9%85%D9%8A%D8%A7-%D9%86%D8%A8%D9%8A-%D9%85%D9%86-%D8%A7%D9%86%D8%A8%D9%8A%D8%A7%D8%A1-%D8%A7%D9%84%D9%84%D9%87-%D9%8A%D8%AC%D8%A8-%D8%B9%D9%84%D9%8A%D9%86%D8%A7-%D8%A7%D9%84%D8%A7%D9%8A%D9%85%D8%A7%D9%86-%D8%A8%D9%87 |publisher=[[IslamQA.info]] |access-date=21 July 2024 |language=Ar |date=2016}}</ref>

Islamic [[literature]] narrated a detailed account of the [[Siege of Jerusalem (587 BC)]], which parallels the account given in the [[Book of Jeremiah]].<ref>''Tabari'', i, 646ff.</ref>

==== Interpretation of Quran and Hadith ====
The oldest Islamic narration about Jeremiah was found in the tradition from [[Ibn Abbas]], which identified Jeremiah as [[Khidr]].{{efn|similar narration about the identification as Khidr also found in the record of Tabari, which detailed the event was during the destruction of Jerusalem.<ref>{{cite book |title=The Qur'an and Its Interpreters , Volume 1 |publisher=SUNY Press |isbn=9780873957274 |year=1984 |page=260 |url=https://books.google.com/books?id=sIXpFtvp2JYC |access-date=21 July 2024}}</ref>}} However, This Hadith tradition was considered inauthentic and not generally accepted by Ibn Kathir in his work, al-Bidaya wa l-Nihaya.<ref name="Jeremiah according to Islamic tenet" /><ref>{{cite book |author1=Ibn Kathir |author1-link=Ibn Kathir |editor=Artawijaya |title=Kisah Para Nabi |trans-title=Stories of prophets |publisher=Pustaka Al-Kautsar |year=2011 |isbn=9789795925576 |translator=Dudi Rosyadi |page=870 |url=https://books.google.com/books?id=68jcDwAAQBAJ |access-date=21 July 2024 |language=Id}}</ref>

According to [[al-Qurtubi]], the interpretation of the 11th verse Quran chapter [[Al-Anbiya]] has mentioned the unnamed figure in the verse as Jeremiah, which musing in the similar narrative with the biblical version of Nebuchadnezzar's invasion of Jerusalem. However, al-Qurtubi also further added in his interpretation that during the meeting of Jeremiah with Nebuchadnezzar, Jeremiah revealed to him about the prophesied advent of [[Muhammad]] in the land of [[Hejaz]].<ref>{{cite web |title=التفسير Tafsir (explication) القرطبي - Al-Qurtubi الأنبياء (21:11) ; Tafseer al-Qurtubi|website=quran.ksu.edu.sa |publisher=[[Saudi Arabia|Kingdom of Saudi Arabia]] |url=https://quran.ksu.edu.sa/tafseer/qortobi/sura21-aya11.html |series=القرآن الكريم |access-date=21 July 2024 |language=Ar}}</ref>

Ibn Kathir [[tafsir]] narrate that the [[Parable of the Hamlet in Ruins]], which from the 259th verse of [[Al-Baqara]] chapter focused about Jeremiah, when he was commanded by God to reconstruct the devastated Jerusalem after Nebuchadnezzar's invasion.<ref>''Tafsir al-Qurtubi'', vol. 3, p. 188; ''Tafsir al-Qummi'', vol. 1, p. 117.</ref><ref name="Ibn Kathir; chapter Jeremiah" />

In Quran [[Sura]] (chapter) 17 ([[Al-Isra]]), [[Ayah]] (verse) 4–7, that is about the two corruptions of [[Israelites|children of Israel]] on the earth, some hadith and tafsir cite that one of these corruptions is the imprisonment and persecution of Jeremiah.<ref>{{cite web |title=Al-Isra 17:4 Tafsir Ibn Kathir|url=https://quran.com/id/17:4/tafsirs/tazkirul-quran-en |publisher=Quran.com. |access-date=21 July 2024 |language=En}}</ref><ref>{{cite web |title=Al-Isra 17:6 Tafsir Ibn Kathir|url=https://quran.com/id/17:5/tafsirs/tazkirul-quran-en |publisher=Quran.com. |access-date=21 July 2024 |language=En}}</ref><ref>{{cite web |title=Al-Isra 17:6 Tafsir Ibn Kathir|url=https://quran.com/id/17:6/tafsirs/tazkirul-quran-en |publisher=Quran.com. |access-date=21 July 2024 |language=En}}</ref><ref>{{cite web |title=Al-Isra 17:7 Tafsir Ibn Kathir|url=https://quran.com/id/17:7/tafsirs/tazkirul-quran-en |publisher=Quran.com. |access-date=21 July 2024 |language=En}}</ref> Separately, Ibn Kathir interpretation of the 11th verse  of al-Isra also discussed about Jeremiah.<ref>{{cite web |title=Al-Isra 17:11 Tafsir Ibn Kathir|url=https://quran.com/id/17:11/tafsirs/tazkirul-quran-en |publisher=Quran.com. |access-date=21 July 2024 |language=En}}</ref>

==== Other traditions ====
Ibn Asakir has mentioned in his work titled ''Tarikh Dimashq'' (History of Damascus), that Jeremiah was a son of [[Hilkiah]], who hailed from the tribe of Levy which descended from [[Jacob in Islam|Jacob]].<ref name="Jeremiah according to Islamic tenet" /> According to one tradition which recorded by Ibn Kathir, Wahb has narrated that the timeline of Jeremiah as prophet was between the era of [[David in Islam|David]] and the era of [[Zechariah in Islam|Zechariah]].<ref>{{cite book |author1=Wisnu Sasongko |title=Jejak Yakjuj Dan Makjuj |publisher=Hikmah |isbn=9786028767149 |year=2010 |page=363 |url=https://books.google.com/books?id=EGhiZpqzEnIC |access-date=21 July 2024 |language=Id |chapter=14}}</ref>

[[Wahb ibn Munabbih]], who gave [[Israʼiliyyat]] account about Jeremiah which turned "upon the main points of the Old Testament story of Jeremiah: his call to be a prophet, his mission to the king of Judah, his mission to the people and his reluctance, the announcement of a foreign tyrant who is to rule over Judah."{{sfn|Wensinck|1913–1936}}

According to some Jewish narratives and Ibn Kathir, [[Zoroaster]] was once a disciple of Jeremiah.{{efn|[[Sibt ibn al-Jawzi]] instead stated that some older narration said that Zoroaster was a former disciple of [[Uzair]].<ref>{{cite web |title=هل بوذا" أو "زرادشت" من الأنبياء؟ |url=https://www.islamweb.net/ar/fatwa/425695/ |website=إسلام ويب |publisher=Islamweb |year=2020 |access-date=22 July 2024 |language=Ar}}</ref>}}<ref name="IbnKathir">[[Ibn Kathir]], ''Stories of the Prophets'', ''The Story of the Prophet Jeremiah''</ref>  However, the two of them came into conflict which ended with Jeremiah disowning Zoroaster. Jeremiah then cast a curse upon Zoroaster, causing him to suffer [[leprosy]]. Zoroaster later moved to a place in modern-day [[Azerbaijan]], ruled by Bashtaasib, governor of Nebuchadnezzar, and spread his teaching of [[Zoroastrianism]] there. Bashtaasib then followed his teaching, forced the inhabitants of [[Persia]] to convert to Zoroastrianism and killed those who refused.<ref name="Ibn Kathir; chapter Jeremiah">{{cite web |author1=Ibn Kathir |title=The Reconstruction of Jerusalem In the Era of Jeremiah |url=https://www.islamawareness.net/Prophets/reconstruction.html |website=islamawareness |access-date=22 July 2024 |language=En}}</ref><ref>{{cite web |author1=Muhammad Al-Munajjid |author1-link=Muhammad Al-Munajjid |title=هل زاردشت كان نبيا ؟ |trans-title=Was Zoroaster a prophet? |year=2017 |url=https://islamqa.info/ar/answers/258698/%D9%87%D9%84-%D8%B2%D8%A7%D8%B1%D8%AF%D8%B4%D8%AA-%D9%83%D8%A7%D9%86-%D9%86%D8%A8%D9%8A%D8%A7 |website=[[IslamQA.info|islamqa.info]] |publisher=islamqa.info |access-date=3 August 2024 |language=Ar}}</ref> Ibn Kathir quoted the original narrative which was borrowed from Tabari's record of the "History of Jerusalem".
