Every Muslim knows the Qur'an was revealed. Rather fewer have any picture of what that was actually like for the man it was revealed to.
This book supplies one.
The process and the feelings associated with the descent of the Qur'an — the cave at Hira, the first encounter, the physical weight of revelation, the terror and the reassurance, and what it meant to receive words that were not your own and be responsible for delivering them.
Across twenty-four pages it offers a way into the core of Islamic belief, held together well enough to keep a teenage reader from start to finish.
A young adult who would put down a full Seerah will finish this. And what he gets from it is the thing a full Seerah often assumes he already has: a sense that revelation happened to a person, in a place, with consequences he had to live through.
Sami Ayoub and Mrs. Taylor Ayoub write to make Islamic education approachable for younger readers — simplifying difficult religious concepts without hollowing them out, which is the whole difficulty in writing for this age.
