Islamic Mythology
Islamic mythology encompasses the rich tapestry of stories, beliefs, and figures found within Islamic tradition. It includes narratives about the creation of the world, the lives of prophets like Muhammad, Moses, and Jesus, and the existence of supernatural beings such as angels and jinn.
