The Guided Path

In 2023, we at Bayyinah organized a Story Writing Competition, inviting you to craft fictional stories centered around the theme of rediscovering one’s connection to Allah’s chosen path, inspired by the verse from Surah Al-Insan:

إِنَّا هَدَيْنَـٰهُ ٱلسَّبِيلَ إِمَّا شَاكِرًۭا وَإِمَّا كَفُورًا

Indeed, We guided him to the right path, whether he was grateful or not. [76:3]

Our judges selected the top 12 stories, which we have compiled for you below.
