| Summary | "The Prophet" by Kahlil Gibran is a philosophical and poetic work written during the early 20th century. The book is often categorized as a spiritual essay or collection of poetic essays, as it features Gibran's reflections on various aspects of life, such as love, marriage, work, and freedom, offered by the titular character, Almustafa. The core theme is the exploration of the inner truths of existence and human experiences, expressed through lyrical, emotional language that blends spirituality and practicality. In this narrative, Almustafa, a prophet who has lived in the city of Orphalese for twelve years, is preparing to return to his homeland. As he departs, the people of the city seek his wisdom on various topics, and he imparts profound insights on subjects like love, marriage, children, joy and sorrow, and death. Each of his response resonates with universal truths and invites readers to reflect on their own experiences. The dialogue not only showcases Gibran's eloquent and philosophical style but also emphasizes the interconnectedness of all human experiences, ultimately reminding readers of the beauty of life despite its inevitable challenges and sorrows.
