A unique friendship brought together Abed, Hamed, and Khaled, but the war tampered with this friendship and shattered it.
The narrator recalls the life history of these three, using those close to them, to fill in the gaps in the story, and to discover the secret of the mysterious prophecy made by Abed, in which he said that he would die near the honey rocks after six years and two months.
In poetic language, Mamdouh Azzam writes about death, friendship, and love, and about the bitterness of grudges that grow and grow in the mud of vile wars. And about war and the impact it leaves behind on people's souls.

The culprit of the novel My Heart is Between Abu Dhabi and Kuwait
The events of the novel take place in the nineties of the last century in the city of Abu Dhabi. The protagonist, Ali, worked as an employee in his father’s company after his father urged him to do so. He not only married Hamad’s cousin, who shares the company’s profits with his father.
Ali feels tremendous pressure from his parents. He does not feel that the time has come for him to make a decision in his life.
As fate would have it, he went with Hamad's aunt on a business trip to Kuwait. The director of the Kuwaiti company was late for the meeting, so his daughter, Sharifa, was forced to meet the Emirati delegation. Ali saw her and his heart burned with love for her, and so did she.
The agreement was not completed between the two parties due to the Iraqi invasion of Kuwait.
