1436	ENT_HER_TRISMEGISTUS	received_as	ENT_ISL_IDRIS	medium	Islamic philosophers from the 9th century onward identified Hermes Trismegistus with the Quranic prophet Idris, creating "Hermes-Idris" as the Islamic primordial sage of wisdom, alchemy, and the natural sciences. Jabir ibn Hayyan, al-Kindi, and the Sabian astronomical tradition of Harran all contributed to this identification. The pseudo-Magriti text Ghayat al-Hakim and later writers on Islamic occult philosophy elaborate Idris-Hermes as the originator of every science. Van Bladel 2009 traces this in detail. Confidence medium: the identification is certain in the philosophical tradition, but represents an interpretation layered onto the Quranic Idris, not a direct Quranic claim.
