thumb|Pharaoh's wife and her servants find baby Moses in the Nile. Illustration from the Persian ''Jami' al-tawarikh Al-Qasas (, ; The Story) is the 28th chapter (sūrah'') of the Qur'an with 88 verses (āyāt).
According to Ibn Kathir's commentary, the chapter takes its name from verse 25 in which the word Al-Qasas occurs. Lexically, qasas means to relate events in their proper sequence. Thus, from the viewpoint of the meaning too, this word can be a suitable title for this Surah, for the detailed story of the Prophet Moses has been related in it. It also includes the story of Qarun in verses 76 to 83, explaining how Qarun was proud of himself thinking that his huge wealth was earned by his own science, denying the grace of God on him, and being destroyed by God later with his wealth underground.
