This collection of important scriptural stories was drawn from the Koran and other Arabic manuscripts describing the lives of the prophets. The introduction speculates that Mohammed's instruction in Jewish and Christian tradition was given to him orally by people from those faiths. Some footnotes compare the stories collected here with the same stories from the Talmud or Bible or otherwise comment on the differences in detail.
