About this ebook
After twelve years of exile within the walls of Orphalese, Al-Mustafa finally stands on the threshold of his long-awaited departure. Before he boards the ship that will carry him home, the people gather to ask him one last time about the mysteries of life. Speaking of love, marriage, children, work, freedom, joy and sorrow, religion, death, and the soul, he offers timeless reflections that flow with the grace of poetry and the depth of spiritual wisdom.
Through the voice of Al-Mustafa, Kahlil Gibran reminds us that love lies at the heart of all existence, and that loss, suffering, and even death are not endings, but essential passages in the soul's journey toward understanding.
