Islam is a religion of balance and harmony. If you have stories to tell, you should tell them. However, we ought to remember that whatever we do we need to do it to seek the pleasure of Allah. To gain the pleasure of Allah, we need to fulfill two prerequisites: Our intention should be to please Allah; secondly, the work itself should be approved or allowed by Allah.

 

Therefore, you should pray to Allah to help you to tell stories that would add good to the world.

 

Of course, you can tell stories unless you read stories. A practitioner of trade must learn the read; so read; read and read, but avoid obscene and dirty stories.

 

Almighty Allah knows best.
