Abstract

Judaism, Christianity, Jainism, Buddhism, Saivism, Vaishnavism, Sikhism, Islam, etc., are embraced by the majority of the people at times of origin in the world. In general, the purpose of religion is to moralize people. When the people in Arabia suffered from the worship of many Gods, The Prophet Muhammad created the noble idea of 'God is one' and upheld that principle and established the principles of commonality that the people of the world should follow. That's why 'Praise Muhammad who appeared in the Arab country and made the tradition of one Lord alive and praise the mercy given by the common brotherhood and flawless religion', said the Tamil Poet Thiru. V. Kalyana Sundaranar praising the Prophet. Such Islam began to spread in Tamil Nadu during the Middle Ages. Islamic scholars have written a wide variety of literary works in Tamil which are full of religious facts. Some have also written stories. This story has been written keeping in mind the nature of Tamil Nadu. Islamic narratives form the theme of the story without differing from the religious concepts at all. It is also written in a simple way for the common people to understand. The Author of Islamic Tamil does not fail to present the religious views in the right way without any variation.
