The Holy Quran's Informing the Prophet Muhammad, Peace be upon Him, about the Unseen Aspects of Previous Nations: A Case Study of People of the Book A comparative descriptive study of what the Prophet was addressed with the phrase 'and you were not'

The research examines models of the unseen matters of the People of the Book which the Quran addressed to Prophet Muhammad using the phrase "And you were not."

The research includes an introduction, preamble, four sections, conclusion, and index. The introduction explains the importance of the topic, reasons for choosing it, previous studies, research plan, research limitations, and the descriptive, analytical, and comparative approaches used.

Section one discusses the Quran's accounts of the occult of previous nations. Section two covers Mary's upbringing. Section three covers Moses' commissioning as a prophet and Allah calling out to him. Section four discusses Moses residing in Midian. The sections examine accounts of the People of the Book's occult by mentioning the relevant verses, comparing them to the Torah and Bible, discussing and commenting on them.
