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 the Qur'anic Verses and the Sunnah (traditions) of the Prophet (S). 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 reproduced the views and interpretations of all the great exegetes of the Qur'an of his time. The systemic narratives of the Stories of the Prophets have been written in chronological order which renders a historical style to the book.
Allah the Most Exalted says in the Qur'an:

Reviewer: Massoud from Toronto, Canada on 01/17/2009
Assalamu Alaikum, brothers and sisters. This is simply an amazing and great book for those who wish to learn the accurate stories of our Prohets [peace and blessings of Allah be upon them]. The book uses portions of the Quran and Ahadith to discuss issues surrounding the Prophets. Isra'iliyat [Biblical stories] are frequently mentioned, but Ibn Kathir carefully describes the status of authenticity of most of them. It is a must buy for Muslims wishing to know our Prophets in further detail. Wassalamu Alaikum.

Truly informative! You get to know so much about the Stories of previous Prophets. And you also get to learn so many good lessons from their lives. A must fo every Islamic Library.
Reviewer: on 07/07/2008
Very informative book. My mother who is not muslim enjoys reading this. She has learned things that she never knew being christian.
Reviewer: on 05/18/2008
This is a great translation of Ibn Kathir's work. Printing is good but I wish the paper had been slightly better quality. However, that's a personal preference and not worth taking a star off this product. It gives good references and is a good book to keep in your personal library and to teach with. I use this book as part of my curriculum for teaching.
Reviewer: Omar from Houston, United States on 02/21/2007
An excellent book that covers so much information. I learned many new & interesting facts about previous prophets that I had no idea about. This is a must read book for everyone... even non-Muslims.
