• An approach that draws on the Qur’an and authentic sources

• Reading material suitable for both home study and group lessons

Why Tareekh Al Anbiyan matters

Allah Almighty tells us in the Qur’an that the accounts of earlier messengers are a source of guidance and reminder for believers. The Qur’an names twenty-five prophets, among them Adam (AS), Nuh (AS), Ibrahim (AS), Musa (AS) and Isa (AS), and it ends the line with Prophet Muhammad ﷺ, the final messenger. A Muslim who studies the history of the prophets sees how patience, truthfulness and trust in Allah were tested in every era, and how those who held firm were honoured by their Lord.

The subject also teaches balance. Some stories of the prophets are told in the Qur’an and in authentic narrations, while other details circulated in later books without a sound basis. A reader who values a book grounded in the Qur’an and authentic sources can build a clear picture without being confused by weak or doubtful material. When you come across an unfamiliar detail, discuss it with a trustworthy scholar and give priority to what is established.

Respect when mentioning the prophets

A Muslim sends peace upon every prophet. We write (AS) after the names of the earlier prophets and “ﷺ” after the name of Prophet Muhammad ﷺ. Teach this habit to children from the start, so that respect for the messengers of Allah becomes part of their speech.

Who should read this book

• Urdu readers who want a dependable history of the prophets (AS)
• Students of Islamic studies and madrasa learners
• Parents who wish to tell their children the lives of the prophets in a sound way
• Imams, teachers and speakers preparing lessons and talks

How to benefit from the book

Read it in order, one prophet at a time, and keep a copy of the Qur’an beside you so that you can look up the relevant verses. Make notes of the lessons: how a prophet dealt with a stubborn people, how he supported his family, how he made dua. Review these notes weekly. Let children narrate a story in their own words after you read it, which helps them remember. Above all, turn the knowledge into action by choosing a quality of the prophets, such as honesty or forbearance, and practising it in your daily dealings.

A book for the family shelf

As a hardback, this book is built to last through years of reading. It makes a thoughtful gift for Ramadan, Eid, a graduation or a wedding, and a useful addition to the library of a mosque, school or study circle.
