Hanny's StoryTime - Islamic Stories from the Qur'an

I read my findings/stories after doing research about the events, histories and stories from the Qur'an. And I also gather some hadiths that go along with it (either Sahih, Hassan or Da'if but mainly from Sahih Bukhari and Sahih Muslim). Initially, I started this in my YouTube channel to help my daughter to understand what Islam is all about. But then I realized that there're so much that I, myself were not even aware of. In our daily hectic life, I pray that this 'Podcast' can help us all to remember why we are here in the first place. “Laa ilaha ilallah, Muhammadan ‘Abduhu wa Rasuluh”
