The Suhuf-i-Ibrahim (Scrolls of Abraham) (Arabic: صحف ابراهيم) are part of the religious scriptures of Islam, and are now believed to be lost.[citation needed]

In two suras, which are to be dated from the first Meccan period, there is a reference to the 'leaves, scrolls' (suhuf) of Abraham and Moses, by which presumably texts of revelation are meant (87:18-19; 53:36-37). The contents of this revelation is not known from the Qur'an.
