True Stories of Islam is the authorised translation of Sachhi Hikaayat, a unique corpus of Islamic stories in Urdu now translated into English. The first volume was dedicated to stories relating to the prophets and messengers of Allah. This volume focuses on uplifting stories from the early Muslims; the Ahl-al-Bayt and the four great Imams of jurisprudence in particular. Such stories are of paramount importance for many reasons.
