The authentic accounts of the prophets (Illustrated - According to Imam Ibn Kathîr) - 2 volumes - Collection The accounts of the prophets in the light of the Koran and the Sunna

Believing in the prophets is one of the foundations of the Muslim faith.
God chose these men of exemplary morality to be His representatives on Earth and spread His Word. The prophets explain to men the divine Commandments, correct their deviations and exhort everyone to worship only Allah and to adhere to good morals.
Almighty God has sent a warner to every community. This is why there are a large number of prophets. However, the Koran names only twenty-five of them, among the most illustrious. It is precisely the story of these prophets that we invite you to discover.

In this reference work for the whole family, the stories of the prophets are told in chronological order, starting with the story of Âdam and Hawwâ' and ending with the life of the last prophet Muhammad (SAW).

These two volumes bring together all of the 20 books of the collection "The stories of the prophets in the light of the Koran and the Sunna", a collection which combines the beauty of the illustrations and the authenticity of the texts based on Koranic verses quoted in the two languages Arabic and French. You will find at the end of Volume 2 "The genealogical tree of the prophets" as well as "The map of the prophets and messengers".

Each story has its source in the Koran and the Sunna, according to the works of the illustrious Imam Ibn Kathîr (d. 774 H), to whom we owe the famous Koranic exegesis “Tafsîr Ibn Kathîr”.

The reliable information contained in the Quran and the authentic Sunnah is narrated with an affirmative style. Concerning the uncertain details that exegetes generally draw from the Judeo-Christian tradition or from the pre-Islamic Arab tradition, we expressed reservations by introducing them with expressions such as “one says” or “one tells”.

We hope that this very profitable book, both for young and old, will allow you to spend pleasant moments alone or with your family...
