People of Ya-Sin or Ashab al-Qarya (Arabic: أصحاب القرية) is the phrase used by Muslims to refer to an ancient community that is mentioned in the 36th surah of the Quran^[1] as the People of the City or the Companions of the City. The location and people of this city has been the subject of much scholarly debate in Islam.
