He had long suspected that he was being plagued by demons.
So begins the tale of the man from Mecca, a man unsure of his place in the world. Cast off by family and shunned by members of his own tribe, he longs to find meaning in his tortured existence.
But his grip on reality has been slipping away. The man who has been appearing to him, the one who calls himself Jibrayil, claims to be an angel of God. But this being could just as easily be a demon of Hell. Or even a hallucination created by his own fevered mind. Even more perplexing is Jibrayil’s assertion that he is destined to be the highest prophet of God.
“Jibrayil and the Prophet” is the controversial story of one man’s search for purpose. Sure to be provocative, this bold work examines a life whose impact is still felt today.
