The purpose of describing these stories in the Quran:
Allah Almighty has sent more or less one hundred and twenty-four thousand prophets for human growth and guidance, the purpose of which is to bring the lost humanity out of the darkness of disbelief and oppression and drown it in the light of unity. ( Read about the life and stories of the prophets in English ). Allah says in the Quran: “Surely in their stories, there is a lesson for the people of understanding”
The wisdom behind the stories and the purpose of writing this book:
The stories of prophets prove that the Quran is the word of Allah and the Messenger of Allah (PBUH) is the last prophet. The stories of the prophets were not mentioned to give plain information about history or to narrate stories of the past. They were narrated to teach believers something and make them draw lessons from various events. And one of the important reasons why the stories of the prophets are mentioned in the Quran is to console and strengthen all of the believers. Another reason is to prove the institution of prophethood. So read about the life and stories of the prophets in English. This book is a complete guide compiled by Al-Hafiz Ibn Katheer Dimashqi.
