Stories of the Prophets

In this book, the Stories of the Prophets have been compiled from 'Al-Bidayah wan-Nihayah' (The Beginning and the End) which is a great work of the famous Muslim exegete and historian Ibn Kathir and has a prominent place in the Islamic literature. The Stories of the Prophets and all the events in their lives have been supported by Quranic Verses and the traditions of the Prophet (SAW). Wherever it was necessary, other sources have also been reported for the sake of historical accounts, but on such places a comparative study has been made to prove the authenticity of the sources. Ibn Kathir has reporduced the views and interpretations of all the great exegetes of the Quran of his time. The systematic narratives of the Stories of the Prophets have been written in chronological order which renders a historical style to the book.
