Abu Dhabi: The world's heaviest book, "This is Mohammed", is
currently on display at a mall in Al Ain, the garden city near Abu
Dhabi.
The Guinness World Records has certified "This is Mohammed", which
weighs 1,000 kg, as the heaviest in the globe.
The book was launched in February by Sheikh Hamdan bin Rashid Al
Maktoum, deputy ruler of Dubai and UAE minister of finance, at the
Dubai World Trade Centre.
The book will also be displayed in Kuwait and Saudi Arabia.
