I own this book and absolutely love it. The stories are so real and beautiful i feel connection and humble.

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.

Nice Collection

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.

I found the book difficult to read. The stories of the Quran are the most beautiful and beneficial stories, they should have been narrated better.

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
