Stories of the Prophets Quotes

“And if Allah did not check one set of people by means of another, the earth would indeed be full of mischief.”
― Hafiz Ibn Kathir, Stories of the Prophets

“not the way of the Mufsideen (mischief makers)." And when Moses came the time and place appointed by Us, and his Lord spoke to him, he said: "O my Lord! Show me (yourself), that I may look upon You." Allah said: "You cannot see Me, but look upon the mountain if it stands still in its place then you shall see Me." So when his Lord appeared to the mountain, He made it collapse to dust, and Moses fell down unconscious. Then when he recovered his senses he said: "Glory be to You, I turn to You in repentance and I am the first of the believers." Allah said: "O Moses, I have chosen you above men by My Messages, and by My speaking to you. So hold that which I have given you and be of the grateful.”
