Abel is mentioned in the Quran in these verses:

[5:27] Recite for them the true history of Adam’s two sons. They made an offering, and it was accepted from one of them, but not from the other. He said, “I will surely kill you.” He said, “God accepts only from the righteous.

[5:28] “If you extend your hand to kill me, I am not extending my hand to kill you. For I reverence God, Lord of the universe.

[5:29] “I want you, not me, to bear my sin and your sin, then you end up with the dwellers of Hell. Such is the requital for the transgressors.”

[5:30] His ego provoked him into killing his brother. He killed him, and ended up with the losers.

[5:31] God then sent a raven to scratch the soil, to teach him how to bury his brother’s corpse. He said, “Woe to me; I failed to be as intelligent as this raven, and bury my brother’s corpse.” He became ridden with remorse.
