This book, Stories of the Quran, is based on the key stories of The Glorious Quran and gathered from the book titled, Al-Bidayah wan-Nihayah (The Beginning and the End). The book also covers a number of stories that were not included in Al Bidayah wan-Nihayah, such as that of Harut and Marut.
These stories are excellent for both adults and children. By increasing your appreciation for the verses they represent, they will help you to understand and recognize the wisdom and benevolence behind Allah's messages to mankind as revealed in the Holy Quran.
Seriously, books like Sealed Nectar, The Stories of Prophets, and this one should be mandatory reading for all Muslims worldwide. Understanding the Noble Quran becomes much easier after reading these books, as they provide background information related to certain verses. I look forward to revisiting these books repeatedly so that the knowledge becomes ingrained in my body and soul, In Sha Allah.
It is exactly as described - a book of stories found in the Quran based on traditional sources. I appreciate Project Ali for their work in compiling these stories into an eBook.
Never thought of Quran the way after reading this amazing book. If Quran is a bit difficult for you to understand, this book works to pave the way to the understanding of the deep spirituality of Quran. Which as per my understanding is very much hidden from the world, maybe because of the political situation. Stories are simple and easy and interesting of course
