About the author
Abul Noor Muhammad Bashir: Maulana Abul Noor Muhammad Bashir rahimahullah (1913-2007) was a celebrated author, orator, and poet born and raised in Kotli Loharan, Sialkot, Pakistan. He acquired his early Islamic education under his father, the distinguished scholar Faqi Aazam Maulana Abu Yusuf Muhammad Shard, before going on to study at Darul Uloom Jamia Hizbul Ahnaaf in Lahore. After completing his education he returned to his community and devoted himself to preaching and religious outreach. In 1951 he established Mah e Taybah, a monthly Urdu magazine that he continued to edit for over twenty years, making it an important vehicle for Islamic education and literature. He was a prolific writer whose works include Sachhi Hikaayat, Jibreel ki Hikaayat, Shaytan ki Hikaayat, Aana Jaana Noor ka, Aurat ki Hikaayat, Sunni Ulama ki Hikaayat, Jabal Noor, and Labbayk Ya Sayyidi, among others.

About the translator
Shahid Hussain: Shahid Hussain is a British Muslim translator born and raised in Leicester, England. He works as a freelance part-time translator and has devoted a significant portion of his career to rendering the Islamic narrative works of Sultan-ul-Waizeen Maulana Abul Noor Muhammad Bashir (1913-2007) from Urdu into English. Maulana Bashir was a celebrated Urdu scholar, orator, and prolific author whose multi-volume story collections - drawn from Qur'anic narrative, seerah, and Islamic history - became widely read in South Asian Muslim communities. Shahid Hussain began translating this corpus in 2012, producing Jibreel Stories, the authorized English translation of Jibreel ki Hikaayat, a collection of eighteen stories about the angel Jibril. He followed this with Shaytan Stories, the translation of Shaytan ki Hikaayat, a collection of sixty-eight accounts of the adversary of humanity, and the multi-volume True Stories of Islam, the authorized translation of the opening volumes of Sachhi Hikaayat. All of his translations are published by Abul Noor Publications and have introduced Maulana Bashir's storytelling tradition to a new generation of English-speaking Muslim readers.
