- About the Author
- Al-Hafiz Ibn Katheer is celebrated in the Muslim world as one of the greatest Islamic scholars, particularly noted for his works in Hadith, Tafsir (interpretation of the Quran), and Islamic history. Born in the 14th century, his contributions to Islamic scholarship remain invaluable resources for understanding the Quran and the Sunnah. His extensive knowledge and meticulous approach to scholarship have made his works, including "Stories of the Prophets," indispensable for Muslims seeking to deepen their understanding of their faith and the exemplary lives of the prophets. 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 Scholar and historian Ibn Katheer and has a prominent place in Islamic literature. The stories of the prophets and all the events in their lives have been supported by the Qur’anic Verses and the Sunnah (traditions) of the Prophet (peace be upon him). 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. The systemic narratives of the Stories of the Prophets have been written in chronological order which renders a historical style to the book.
