The Suhuf-i-Ibrahim (Scrolls of Abraham/Ibrahim) (Arabic: صحف ابراهيم) are part of the religious scriptures of Islam, and are believed to be lost by some.

In two suras, which are to be dated from the first Meccan period, there is a reference to the 'leaves, scrolls' (suhuf) of Abraham/ אַבְרָהָם /Ibrahim/ ابراهيم and Moses/Moshe/מֹשֶׁה /Musa/ موسى, 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. Some theorize this is a reference to the Sefer Yetzirah.^{[citation needed]}
