This is so wrong in many ways and a total disrespect to my religion
As a Muslim I'm disgusted on how you can do such a thing without any proper knowledge...the al-buraq is not correct and the angels don't even look like that and the main thing we always CONDEMN anyone who draws a picture of our beloved prophet! I bought this book so my daughter can understand other religions as well as basic islam but some of the content of this book is not correct but my whole issue is the drawing of our beloved prophet.
