It is Gibran's best known work. The Prophet has been translated into over 40 different languages and has never been out of print.

The book is divided into chapters dealing with love, marriage, children, giving, eating and drinking, work, joy and sorrow, houses, clothes, buying and selling, crime and punishment, laws, freedom, reason and passion, pain, self-knowledge, teaching, friendship, talking, time, good and evil, prayer, pleasure, beauty, religion, and death.

Desde su primera publicación, en 1923, «El profeta» ha sido traducido a más de veinte idiomas y es considerado el libro más leído del siglo XX. En él se narra cómo un sabio mantiene un dialogo con la muchedumbre justo antes de abandonar su pueblo, exponiendo su sabiduría sobre temas como el amor, el tiempo, la religión, la amistad, los hijos, lo bueno, lo malo, la vida y la muerte, entre otros.Temas que por su carácter universal nunca perderán su vigencia a través del tiempo. Por otra parte, «El jardín del profeta», fue publicado doce años después y relata cómo, después de llegar a su tierra natal, el mismo personaje se reúne en su jardín con nueve discípulos para continuar el dialogo sobre aquellos temas que inquietan al ser humano. Escritos con sencillez y profundidad, «El profeta» y «El jardín del profeta» son libros que, por su belleza y sabiduría, deben ser leídos al menos una vez en la vida.
