The answer

The Center cannot rule on the mentioned novel due to the lack of complete access to it. Furthermore, the Center specializes in answering scholarly questions related to religious rulings, not in evaluating books and novels. The Center notes that it is not obligatory to respond to every suspicious book; rather, it might be better to let it die by overlooking it, as Imam Muslim mentioned in the introduction to his Sahih.
