The Year of the Elephant is a biography of the Prophet Muhammad that details the origins of Islam. This beautifully illustrated Muslim children's book covers more than just the history of Islam. It highlights the sunnah, or lifestyle, of the Prophet. Many people ask questions like, "What is Ramadan?" and "Who wrote the Quran?" But the more important question is, "Who was Prophet Muhammad?" He was the man whom Allah chose to deliver His final revelation. The beginning of Islam cannot be fully understood nor appreciated without understanding the story of Muhammad ibn Abdullah (peace be upon him).
