Muḥammad al-Kisāʾī


Muḥammad al-Kisāʾī wrote a work on Stories of the Prophets

Work

Al-Kisā'i produced a collection of Stories of the Prophets with exegetic information not found elsewhere. He elaborates on earlier exegesis with a fuller narrative and folkloric elements from non-extant oral traditions that often parallel those from Christianity. He includes two prophets, Shem and Eleazar, not named in later literature as prophets.
