The Stories of The Prophets | 1. Introduction: The Need of Sending Prophets | Shaykh Dr. Yasir Qadhi

After doing a number of key history-based series on the Sīrah, and Lives of the Khulafā, and Stories of the Saḥaba, I took a long break from history and did my multiple series on aspects of our journey to the next life (Signs of Judgment; Barzakh; Qiyāmah; Heaven and Hell).
Now, I shall return to history, and go back to the beginning. I plan to do an extensive series focusing on the stories of the prophets (Qaṣaṣ al-Anbiyā) mentioned in the Quran, beginning with a few introductory lectures, and then moving on to Prophet Adam, and working our way down until the Prophet Jesus. This will be a very long series.
I plan to follow a unique methodology (as I'll explain in the introductory lectures) and aim to make this series (inshaAllah) the most comprehensive study of these stories in the English language. And as is my way, I will go down related and 'modern' issues as well, which are typically not discussed in our earlier works and bring in sources and aspects that will be of interest to the listeners.
The goal of all of these lectures is first and foremost to achieve the pleasure of Allah and then to help grow imān in our hearts and bring our people closer to their Lord, and their beautiful faith.
I ask Allah for His Divine aid and acceptance, and to make this series a benefit for me and for all those who listen to it. And I ask Him to guide all of us to that which He loves and to forgive any mistakes or errors that all humans are prone to.

For a long time I was thinking if you could do a comprehensive series on the life of Prophets , Now my wish is complete.

[@kingrapid]

Wallah me too brother... was thinking how I just couldn’t wait SubhanAllah...

[@mahamoudidrissabakar4169]

Am I the only one or there are others who went through sheikh Yasir’s serrah from Memphis masjid and can’t wait to redo it again in epic ....! Can’t wait tbh :)

[@syedaleemuddin444]

Me too... completed all episodes of Seerah lectures of Sheikh Dr. Yasir Qadhi

[@User-4517]

absolutly loved the seera series - it totally help me grow my love for the messenger (saws), the sahabah and the early muslims. May Allah SWT guide us all to truth and keep us firm on it. Ameen

[@iskander1080]

Is there any difference between the two versions?

[@atafilaj]

I listened the two versions. There are very few changes in wordings, but not in content. I enjoyed them very much and InshaAllah I will listen to these ones too.

[@abdul9366]

Hello lovers of stories of the Prophetz by Dr Yasir. Why are you people silent over this series? All of u gather here for us to beg him to start the series

[@Dbadaing]

SubhanAllah can't believe this! Just a few hours ago I was wondering why Sh. Yasir hasn't done a series about the stories of the prophets and here we are 😄.

[@LearnwithMissAli]

Why would anyone dislike it? 🥺 I’m super excited for this series Insha’Allah

[@NazmusLabs]

If there were haters of the Prophet ﷺ when he roamed the earth, the best of mankind, then there will be haters of anything

Probably some "salafis"

[@huggeebear]

I highly doubt anybody who did dislike this video stuck around for 55 minutes and 08 seconds. Just people with their own agendas and jealousies

At this point I just feel like my overwheming gratitude transcends all the words I could ever come up with. May the incredibly immense blessings, favour and pleasure of Allah upon our Shaykh be absolutely boundless, here and in the akheera. How beneficial your every word is..Is just POWERFUL. Everyday I wake up, I'm thankful for the blessing of sound mind, the understanding of english and the access we have to these gems despite distance. The rest of my life is better for it. Super Excited for all the pearls of wisdom to come from this series. Yaaaay.

[@m.-9615]

Yearrsss ago I watched the Ramadan series of Mufti Menk about the prophets and that was the first time I heard their stories in chronological order. The series formed the basis of the knowledge I would expend on in the years to follow. I really love that series. And now I'm very excited that Shaykh YQ is going to do his own series on the stories of the prophets!

[@RB-fr1tg]

In the intro Shaykh says: The prophets came to teach the knowledge that one's intellect cannot definitively arrive at. Allah sent Prophets to guide us to where the domain of our intellect cannot, the knowledge of the purpose of our lives and what is going to happen after our death, that knowledge is infinitely more important than all the knowledge of this world and that knowledge is not available to us by the means and mechanisms of our intellect without divine aid. Unaided, our knowledge/intellect will not take us to why we are here, Who created us, the purpose of our existence, how we should live our lives and what is going to happen after death. That is why Allah SWT through His mercy, because He is the Hadi, the Noor and the Kareem, because Allah AZW, the Rahman and the Raheem, He didn't create us and let us be. It is part and parcel of Allah's manifestation of who He is, He sent Prophets to us. The purpose of the prophets, Allah says in Surah Shura verse 52.
