In this book, the stories of the prophets have been compiled from The Beginning and the End (البداية والنهاية) which is a great work of the famous Muslim exegete and historian Ibn Kathir 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 (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 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:
"We are relating unto you the most beautiful of stories in that what We have revealed to you from the Qur'an, though before it you were from among those who were not aware of them." (12:3)
"We have indeed sent aforetime Messengers before you, of them there are some whose stories We have related to you, and whose stories We have not related to you..." (40:78)
"We relate to you the important news of their story in truth..." (18:13)
"And all that We relate to you of these stories of the Messengers, We strengthen with them your heart. Through them there come to you the truth as well as admonition and reminder to all those who believe." (11:120)
"There is, indeed, in their stories lessons for people endowed with understanding. It is not any invented tale, but a confirmation of what went before it and a detailed exposition of all things, and a guide and a mercy to the people who believe." (12:111)
"...So relate the stories, perhaps they may reflect." (7:176)

This book presents the life and times of the Prophet Musa, from the days of his infancy, when he was put in a box in the river Nile, to the period of his divine mission and preaching of Allah's words. It describes how Allah saved him miraculously from the death sentence of the tyrant Firawn, his upbringing in the palace, and his journey to Madyan and back when, on Mount Sinai, Allah spoke to him directly. It goes on to describe the parting of the sea and the utter defeat of Firawn and his mighty army as Prophet Musa leads his followers out of Egypt. Finally, the Children of Israel reach the Promised Land. The life of Musa is full of happenings, adventures and excitement, and has lessons and guidelines for all times.
