Abstract
This paper aims to analyze the extent to which historical thinking skills help us in understanding the context and historical facts presented in the Qur'an. A qualitative approach was implemented by analyzing content related to historical thinking skills and stories in the Qur'an. There are four general skills of historical thinking skills that have been used, namely engaging with sources and their interpretations; understanding chronology; contemplating historical significance and lessons; and, understanding continuity and change. Each of these skills has been viewed and studied from its practical point of view as well as its contribution in providing a framework for understanding the stories in the Qur'an. This paper has found that there are several possibilities as well as limitations in the use of historical thinking skills in understanding the stories in the Qur'an.
