The Holy Quran contains stories of both good and evil people for admonition and reflection, as in the Almighty's saying: "There was certainly in their stories a lesson for those of understanding." To learn about these stories and the reasons for the revelation of the verses, one can refer to the Quran and its commentaries, and books on the reasons for revelation, such as the works of Al-Naysaburi, Al-Suyuti, and Al-Wahidi.
