A lovey-dovey letter discovered by an archaeologist in 1892 in the then newly developing city of Ismailia in north-east Egypt has opened up new questions on the sexual existence of Muhammad. Muslims regard Muhammad for over a thousand years as a holy prophet, someone who has heard from Allah (God), but the content of the fragile letter which was discovered takes some philosophers and historians into a brand-new understanding of the central figure behind the Quran and Islam.

This novel looks into the validity of the unearthed letter and what it tells about a side of Muhammad which has never before been explored.
